Ukrainians are increasing their bank account deposits, leading to a ₴31.3B increase in five months.

Since the beginning of 2024, the increase in consumer deposits amounts to ₴31.3B, the Deposit Guarantee Fund reported. In particular, it is clarified that as of June 1 the total amount of deposits belonging to individuals (including individual entrepreneurs) in Ukrainian banks amounted to ₴1.26T, which is ₴21.9B more than the previous month.

The fund states an upward trend was observed during the last three months. However, for the first time in the current year, a real increase in hryvnia deposits was recorded (not as a result of revaluation of the hryvnia equivalent of foreign currency deposits).

The total amount of individuals’ deposits at the beginning of June reached ₴814.6B (+₴13B for May), and deposits in foreign currency totaled ₴451.5B (+₴8.9B). Private entrepreneurs (FOP) account for 3.3% of the volume, and their deposits amounted to ₴138.8B (11% of the total).
