From December 10, 2025, the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) has excluded from the calculation of required reserves loans attracted by banks for a term of more than one year from non-resident legal entities whose shareholders include a foreign state and/or in whose authorized capital the share of international financial organizations (IFOs) is at least 10%.
Previously, the algorithm for calculating required reserves did not include only loans attracted from IFOs. The new changes should stimulate banks to attract long-term resources to finance reconstruction projects in Ukraine.
The National Bank is also changing the procedure for calculating required reserve ratios. From now on, forcibly withdrawn and sanctioned funds will not be taken into account in this calculation.The NBU expects that these changes will contribute to the growth of investments in strategic projects and support economic stability.
