National Bank will evaluate banks early January 2010

 
Martin Reiser, World Bank (WB) director for Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova, said that National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) will conduct new diagnostic evaluation of Ukrainian banks in the first weeks of 2010. Such an evaluation will be used by WB for the decision on aid for rehabilitation of Ukraine's banking sector. First such evaluation was conducted in early 2009.

WB reps think that the worst scenario for Ukraine's banking sector was averted. Now the banks should work more on transparency of their ownership and protection of their clients.

Another point of critique is the policy of management of Ukraine's state banks. Oschadbank is said to be in a risky position due to issuing loans to Naftogaz, Ukraine's oil and gaz state holding. WB reps think that institution like Oshadbank should be restructured or liquidated. Interfax.
