NACP confirms that it is checking the use of a car of a bank in the process of liquidation by the head of the Deposit Guarantee Fund
Kyiv • UNN
The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption is investigating Svitlana Rekrut, head of the Deposit Guarantee Fund, for a possible conflict of interest due to her use of a car belonging to Megabank, which is in the process of liquidation.
The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption has confirmed to UNN that it is checking whether Svitlana Rekrut, Managing Director of the Deposit Guarantee Fund, has a conflict of interest when she uses cars belonging to Megabank, which is in the process of liquidation, for traveling abroad.
Based on the results of consideration of the appeal of the People's Deputy of Ukraine Yuzhanina dated 27.02.2024, in accordance with clause 6-1, part 1, article 11 of the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention of Corruption", the National Agency began monitoring and control over the implementation of legislative acts on the prevention and settlement of conflicts of interest in the activities of Svitlana Rekrut, Managing Director of the Deposit Guarantee Fund

During a journalistic investigation conducted by UNN, it turned out that in 2023 , Rekrut spent more than 100 days abroad or on the way there or back, which is almost half of all working days of the year. In 2022, her trips totaled more than 80 days.
It is noteworthy that according to Svitlana Rekrut's declaration, in 2022 she received compensation from the DGF for excessive travel expenses in the amount of over UAH 65 thousand.
At the same time, the DGF press service in 2022-2023 reported only three international events that took place abroad with Svitlana Rekrut's personal participation.
In addition, during the investigation, UNN learned that Svitlana Rekrut repeatedly used two Toyota Camry cars belonging to Megabank JSC, which has been in the process of liquidation since July 2022, to travel abroad.
She started using one of the cars in October 2022.
According to the Law "On the Deposit Guarantee System", the property of a bank in liquidation may be used for the purpose of saving money only by a representative of the DGF who is part of the temporary administration. According to the website youcontrol, Svetlana Rekrut is not an authorized person from the DGF to liquidate JSC Megabank. Currently, the liquidation is carried out by Iryna Bila on behalf of the Fund.
In its responses to journalistic inquiries, the DGF claims that Svitlana Rekrut used cars owned by Megabank JSC exclusively for business trips and to save money.
However, according to UNN, on September 22, 2022, she traveled abroad in a Toyota Camry owned by Megabank JSC, together with her parents Valery and Valentina Rekrut. They returned to Ukraine three days later on September 25, 2022. It is worth noting that Svitlana Rekrut traveled from Thursday to Sunday, which means that it is unlikely that she was traveling with her parents on a business trip on the weekend in the car of the bank that is being liquidated.
Recall
Following a deputy appeal by Nina Yuzhanina, a member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Finance, Taxation and Customs Policy, the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption launched an investigation into a possible conflict of interest of Recruit when she used cars owned by Megabank for traveling abroad.
In addition, Megabank owner Viktor Subbotin plans to apply to law enforcement agencies regarding the use of bank cars by Recruit for personal trips abroad and the sale of Megabank assets by the Fund at significantly reduced prices.
In response to a journalistic inquiry about Recruiter's travels abroad, the DGF reported that information on the movements of the Fund's officials (business trips, business trips, etc.) is official information with limited access, and added that Rekrut had appealed to law enforcement agencies regarding IA UNN.
