The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine appointed Dmytro Natalukha as the head of the State Property Fund (SPF) at a meeting on January 14, 2026. 244 people's deputies voted for this decision.
People's Deputy from the "Servant of the People" party, Natalukha previously headed the parliamentary committee on economic development. His deputy powers were prematurely terminated in connection with the new appointment.
Appointment Background
The State Property Fund had been without a full-fledged leader since September 2024, when the previous chairman Vitaliy Koval was dismissed. Ivanna Smachylo temporarily performed the duties.
Government Head Yulia Svyrydenko, while presenting the candidate, emphasized Natalukha's relevant experience.
New Leader's Position
Natalukha himself stated a principled position on state property management: "The task was not to sell everything or preserve everything. The main thing is to approach non-core assets wisely and transfer them to private ownership. For strategic assets, improve management and launch work for the benefit of the Ukrainian economy".
