Compendium of Enterprise Statistics in Ukraine 2018Over 2018-19, the OECD worked closely with the State Statistical Committee of Ukraine (Ukrstat) to improve its capacity to collect, analyse, disseminate and harmonise official business statistics.
In the context of the project EU4Business: From Policies to Action, the OECD assisted Ukrstat in the implementation of a methodology to harmonise the development and collection of entrepreneurship indicators in line with the OECD-Eurostat Entrepreneurship Indicators Programme and, in particular, the Eurostat-OECD Manual on Business Demography Statistics.
In co-operation with Ukrstat, the OECD produced the Compendium of Enterprise Statistics in Ukraine 2018 presenting comprehensive and detailed information about the role played by the SME sector in Ukraine’s economy. The Compendium features structural business statistics (number of SMEs, employment, turnover, exports, average monthly wages, value added and productivity) and business demography statistics (enterprise births and deaths), providing an international comparative perspective with SME performance in OECD and EU member countries.

This section covers such indicators as SME outstanding loans, SME interest rate and interest rate spreads between loans to large firms and SMEs, loans to companies by currency and company size, etc. The data for Ukraine was assessed within the framework of the OECD Financing SMEs and Entrepreneurs Scoreboard and provides comparisons with OECD and EU member countries.
