In the First Seven Months of 2017, the National Bank of Ukraine Enabled Law Enforcement Authorities Access to Items and Documents on 95 Occasions

In  2017, the National Bank of Ukraine participated in the investigation and enabled law enforcement agencies access to documents and items on 9 occasions as part of investigation of criminal offences committed in the banking sector. Such access was provided upon the request of:

  • the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine – on three occasions;
  • the National Police of Ukraine – on 3 occasions;
  • the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine  – on 2 occasions; and
  • the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine – on 1 occasions.

In the first seven months of 2017, the NBU enabled law enforcement agencies access to documents and items as part of criminal investigations on 95 occasions.

It should be noted that in March 2015, the Ukrainian parliament passed a Law On Amendments to Certain Legal Acts of Ukraine on Responsibility of Bank's Related Parties, which introduced criminal responsibility of a bank’s managers and shareholders for their actions resulting in insolvency of a bank, and thereby causing material damage to the state or creditors.
