NBU facilitates currency transaction verification process for banks

The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) has facilitated the requirements for the comprehensive analysis and verification of information on financial transactions and their participants to buy foreign currency to send it abroad, the regulator has reported on its website.

According to the report, the NBU sent letter No. 25-0005/8349 to banks.

From now on the requirements for the comprehensive analysis do not apply to transactions under contracts signed by residents with international companies from the Forbes Global 2000 list and payments between Ukrainian entities and foreign entities under international agreements signed by Ukraine.

The requirements also do not apply to transactions carried out to pay on liabilities in the sum not exceeding UAH 150,000 per transaction.

The NBU also permitted banks to form one conclusion per contract and not to verify each transaction under the contract.

The availability of contracts foreseeing supply of works or services to the customs territory of other countries was removed from the indicators of suspicious financial transactions.

However, the supply of products to the customs territory of other countries is still among these indicators.
