The record increase in the number of registrations of new individual entrepreneurs may be associated with tax optimization and an attempt to bypass mobilization procedures. This was stated by the head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Finance, Tax and Customs Policy, Danilo Getmantsev, in an interview with Ukrinform.

According to him, the growing trend in the number of individual entrepreneurs is associated not only with the recovery of the Ukrainian economy.
“The economy is really recovering, but, unfortunately, not at the same pace as the number of individual entrepreneurs is growing,” Getmantsev said.
He believes that an increase in the number of individual entrepreneurs may be a tax evasion scheme, because there are no proper prerequisites for significant economic growth.
“And an increase in the number FOP is largely connected with the optimization of taxes and an attempt to bypass certain mobilization procedures – registration with the TCC at the time of hiring,” added the people’s deputy.
