Dragon Capital's Brian Best, the company's Managing Director for Investment Banking, spoke with Geoff Cutmore on "Squawk Box" for CNBC Europe in London on Oct. 3, 2007.

In the interview, Brian answered questions about the effect of Ukraine's Sept. 30 parliamentary elections on its future economic stability, relations with Russia, Ukrainian equity markets and the country's increasing appeal for foreign (western) investors. 

Excerpt: "I think (the recent global equities turmoil) could have a positive effect on Ukraine. I see that investors are still looking for growth stories; they're still looking for high yields. Ukraine's risk profile hasn't changed that much vis-à-vis what's happening in the West, so I think it could actually spur more investment in the region as investors continue to look for good growth. Fundamentally, Ukraine is still quite strong."
