The top manager of Ukrsibbank, Dmytro Tsapenko, said: “A new restraining factor that appeared after the war began is currency restrictions, for example, restrictions on the payment of dividends and repayment of loans to parent companies. I hope the regulator will find a certain compromise because it is not easy to convince investors to invest in the country if the investor sees limitations on the return of capital”.
He added that war risks also stop international investments. In addition, many investors are interested in market transparency and equality of business conditions.
“This involves reforming the judicial system, reducing corruption risks, and creating equal working conditions for all participants. These factors are not new, they were relevant even before the start of the war,” Tsapenko emphasized.
We remind you that the National Bank of Ukraine may allow the repatriation of “new” dividends within the framework of easing currency restrictions.
