"The National Bank’s Board adopted the second package of announced measures to support manufacturers, as well as local communities in financing their development, particularly in terms of restoring and supporting critical infrastructure," the statement said. 

In particular, the NBU reported that:

  • the list of eligible collateral for loans was expanded to include property rights to monetary funds (proceeds) for shipped goods (products) / completed work / provided services, and requirements for its eligibility were established, along with a liquidity ratio for such collateral of 0.3; the liquidity ratio for collateral in the form of unconditional and irrevocable guarantees from city and regional councils was also increased to 0.8;
    • uniform approaches were introduced for taking portfolio guarantees into account when mitigating credit risk.

      As emphasized by the National Bank, these steps will help expand access to credit resources for retailers and manufacturers that do not have sufficient fixed assets to pledge as collateral, as well as for municipal and other enterprises whose capacity to implement important infrastructure projects with the guarantee support of local government bodies will increase significantly.
