Abstract

Impact investments serve as a key instrument for mitigating the consequences of fuel oil spills in the Black Sea. They contribute to the restoration of the ecosystem, biodiversity, and the development of affected regions. Particular attention is given to assessing economic damage, including a decline in gross regional product, losses in fisheries, tourism, and agriculture, as well as reduced tax revenues and increased social costs. The application of comprehensive assessment methods enables accurate determination of loss scales and the formulation of sound recovery strategies, thereby reducing the risk of recurring environmental disasters and ensuring sustainable long-term development.
