The Administrative Court of Cassation as part of the Ukraineʼs Supreme Court finally confirmed the legality of the nationalization of PrivatBank. The corresponding decision was made on July 26.

The courtʼs decision is available on the bankʼs website.

The former owners of the Triantal investments LTD company demanded that the order of the NBU dated October 17, 2016 on the inspection of PrivatBank be recognized as illegal.

It was as a result of this inspection that the National Bank discovered irregularities in the work of the management and former owners of the bank, after which it nationalized it in order to avoid bankruptcy and maintain financial stability in the country.

"This is the final court decision in this case, which is an important component of the legal battle between the state-owned PrivatBank and its former owners regarding the legality of nationalization," the bank noted.
