The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) expects direct access of foreign investors to the market of government domestic loan bonds through the infrastructure of global depositories next year, deputy head of the central bank Oleh Churiy has said.

"Today the infrastructure really does not allow investors, who are interested in buying local bonds, to do it quickly and cheaply ... Regarding our work with global depositories: this work is really going on, but we signed a non-disclosure agreement, so I have no right to say at what stage we are ... We hope that next year investors will get access to our market through the infrastructure of global depositories," Churiy said at a press conference.

Churiy also said that from the end of August this year non-residents began to actively buy government domestic loan bonds, and by now the volume of government bonds purchase amounted to about UAH 2.2 billion.
