The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) could in June lift restrictions on payment of dividends to foreign investors, President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko has said at a press conference.

"I think in the near future, in June, the NBU will be ready to decide on removing restrictions on payment of dividends to investors both for 2014 and 2015. I think in the conditions of improving the investment climate this will be a very long-awaited decision that eliminates a lot of problems," the president said.
