NBU constantly provides access to information for law enforcement bodies

In November 2016, on 13 occasions, the National Bank of Ukraine provided the law enforcement agencies with access to the documents and items of evidence required to investigate criminal offences committed in the banking sector, as to the web site of the regulator.

NBU provided access to information upon the request of Security Service of Ukraine  – on 1 occasion; National Police of Ukraine – on 8 occasions; General Prosecutor's office - on 4 occasions. Overall, on 140 occasions over the first eleven months of 2016, the NBU provided the law enforcement agencies with information regarding offences committed in the banking sector.

Recall, in March 2015, the Ukrainian parliament approved the law imposing criminal responsibility on  the bank managers and  owners for actions that  led to the bank's insolvency, thereby causing  material damage to the State or a creditor.
