SUMMARY
A. Introduction
By defining "sustainable inclusive economic growth" as progress in the development of
an economic system that makes it possible to Maintain a certain standard and quality of life
for the long term, we do emphasizes that the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of
sustainable development ensured on the basis of a balance of social justice, safety of the
production environment and economic efficiency.
The challenge of providing resources is related, first and foremost, to factors which
significantly limits private and public investment in achieving the SDGs, namely: high state
budget deficit; low FDI inflows; the loan interest rate high; limited liquidity of the banking
system; the need to strengthen the mobilization system domestic resources (DRM) through
the implementation of measures to cope with flows capital outflow and the erosion of the tax
base.
Institutional challenges that hinder the implementation of the development concept
sustainability and achievement of the SDGs for a transitive economy include: low maturity level
of public institutions, and consequently high levels of the economy shadow and corruption; the
need for intensification of structural transformation to the economy market oriented; the need
to ensure economic diversification of the industry oriented energy-dense raw materials into an
extra value-added industry high-tech, which will reduce exports of raw materials, improve
environment through the introduction of modern technology, and at the same time improve
national competitiveness. ; the need for further intensification of engagement national
economy into the globalization process by increasing participation in the global value chain.

B. Results and Discussion


Unclear targets and indicators cause difficulties in measuring progress. Unifying
reporting metadata forms the basis for progress in implementation SDGs that require
systematic and consistent reporting information. ikator GRI 201-4 (G4-EC4) "Financial
assistance received from the government" includes, among others, investment grants,
research and development grants, and types other relevant grants) (GRI 201: Economic
Performance, 2016). In addition, GRI contains Indicators Indirect Economic Impact 203-1
(G4EC7) which reflects “Investment infrastructure and services supported ”(GRI 203: Indirect
Economic Impacts, 2016). GRI also contains reporting requirements for investment agreements
and agreements significant coverage of human rights provisions Disclosure 412-3 (G4-HR1)
"Significant investment agreements and contracts that include human rights clauses or who
have undergone human rights checks "(GRI 412: Human Rights Assessment Human, 2016).
UNCTAD guidelines and SASB standards do not provide reporting about these aspects.
C. Monitoring the Achievement of the SDG̀ in Ukraine
It is important to emphasize that non-financial reporting in Ukraine is not mandatory.
And because of the corporate governance culture for non-financial reporting in weak
transitional economies, institutional mechanisms for data collection combines the collection
and processing of systematic data on contributions economic entities towards the
achievement of the SDGs need to be improved.
The UNCTAD investment indicators (A.3.1, A.3.2) address two aspects SDG
implementation - social and environmental issues. Indicator A.3.1 actually reflects the amount
invested in the protection facility environment in the context of withdrawal from the
stimulation type system technocratic economic development (according to components
sustainable economic growth - safety of the operating environment).
These indicators include investment in natural resource conservation (soil,
underground, water, atmospheric air, forests, wildlife, etc.); landscapes and other natural
complexes; the area and the object of the nature reserve fund. The social orientation of
investment activities is reflected in Indicator A.3.2 which is pay attention to investment in
health and people's lives.

D. Conclusions and Recommendations


Non-financial reporting challenges in monitoring achievement of the SDGs for the
economy transitions include:
 lack of clear reporting requirements in the development sector continuing, which
complicates the process of appraising the entity's contribution economy towards the
achievement of the SDGs;
 the need to establish a data compliance and reliability monitoring system sustainable
development reporting in order to overcome information asymmetry and increase
transparency;
 the need to develop an approach for assessing the materiality of that information
received for investment purposes in order to establish relevant data for investment
decision making process.
 a weak corporate governance culture for reporting in transitional economies (company
accounting policies);
 improved institutional mechanisms for aggregating data collection systematic
collection and processing of data about the contribution of economic entities to
achievement of the SDGs;
 the need to ensure the coordination of the national statistical system to address
inconsistency and controversy over data reflecting the achievement of the SDGs;
 bring non-financial reporting formats into a uniform based format the principle of
harmonization and comparability;
 the use of so-called “SDG laundering” practices in non-financial reporting; - selective
presentation of facts through the use of the deep "cherry picking" practice non-financial
reporting;
 difficulties in measuring the progress of the entity's contribution to SDGs achievement
based on indicators available in reporting non-financial.
To prevent information asymmetry in continuous and purposeful reporting disclose the
company's efforts to use “SDG washing” and "cherry picking", we propose to expand the
reporting initiative by ratio sustainable development investment priority. The proposed
indicators will be reflects the part of Fixed Capital Investment that contributes to increase the
environmental performance of the company (green capital investment) in the total amount of

for development through expansion or renewal of production capacity. .
