Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of level of debt repayments owed by Ukraine to UK-based bondholders.

According to the IMF’s latest country report for Ukraine in November 2021, Ukraine owes bondholders USD$ 24.8 billion, with debt repayments in 2022 amounting to USD$ 2.51 billion. Based on the most recently available IMF data, UK holdings of Ukrainian debt securities amounted to USD$ 1.43 billion in June 2021. This accounted for 5.5% of the total value of foreign-owned Ukrainian debt securities, as reported by IMF’s Coordinated Portfolio Investment Survey. However, bonds are tradeable instruments meaning holders of these bonds can fluctuate on a regular basis.
