KIEV (Reuters) - The International Monetary Fund has agreed with Ukraine the reform policies it must implement for the board to agree in July to dispense a long-delayed third tranche of loans under a $17.5 billion (£12 billion) bailout programme, the fund said on Wednesday.

An IMF mission visited Kiev last week to assess efforts to root out corruption and revamp Ukraine's war-torn economy, which months of political turmoil and a reshuffle of the pro-Western leadership have disrupted.
