 On November 11, 2026, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted as a whole the Draft Law “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding the Improvement of the Procedure for Disclosure of Banking Secrecy by the National Bank of Ukraine” (Reg. No.15555).

The purpose of the draft law is to align the procedure for disclosing information constituting banking secrecy obtained by the National Bank of Ukraine from a foreign banking supervisory authority with EU legal requirements.

The draft law proposes to establish a prohibition on access in civil and commercial court proceedings to information constituting banking secrecy received by the National Bank from banking supervisory authorities of EU member states.

Furthermore, it proposes to stipulate that the National Bank of Ukraine may disclose information constituting banking secrecy received from a foreign banking supervisory authority not only with the consent of such authority, but exclusively for the purposes specified in that consent.
