Banks are reducing deposits in deposit certificates of the National Bank.
This is stated in the materials of the NBU, the Ukrainian News agency reports.
The volume of net assets of solvent banks increased by 4.7% during the second quarter, of which +1 percentage point was caused by exchange rate revaluation.
The amount of funds that banks keep in accounts with the National Bank of Ukraine (the increase in liabilities requires an increase in the amount of required reserves) and accounts in other banks, as well as investments in domestic government loan bonds, grew the fastest.
Banks' investments in NBU deposit certificates have decreased for the second quarter in a row - in the second quarter - by 7.1% q/q.
At the same time, the volume of net loans to clients increased by a total of 6.8% for the quarter, as well as their share in assets.
According to the former Chairman of the Council of the National Bank, Bohdan Danylyshyn, a historic event took place over the past year and a half - the share of loans in banks' assets fell below the share of deposit certificates and domestic government loan bonds.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, from April 19, 2024, to determine the limit of banks' investments in three-month deposit certificates, the growth of hryvnia deposits of individuals with a term of more than 93 days is calculated for the last 12 months, and not from April 4, 2023, as it was before.
