The NBU is developing new solutions for currency liberalization.

The central bank will work on reforms aimed at expanding incentives for businesses to attract capital to Ukraine, NBU Chairman Andriy Pyshnyy said.

He explained that the logic behind currency liberalization relies on two main elements: protecting national security and creating additional benefits for Ukraine’s economic recovery. Among the measures currently under review by the regulator, the NBU Chairman mentioned broadening liberalization initiatives, issuing government bonds to attract foreign funds, and addressing issues related to dividends. These topics are being discussed within the national bank and with colleagues from the IMF.

“We are working to create stable conditions for the gradual return of capital flows, but in a safe and effective way that provides new opportunities and boosts productivity”, Pyshnyy emphasized.

He added that the NBU is seeking to balance strict monetary policy that will maintain price stability with support for economic recovery. Currently, achieving the 5% inflation target is being slightly delayed, from 2026 to 2027.
