The Ukraine National Commission on Securities and Stock Market (NSSMC) has updated its criteria for identifying enterprises, institutions and organisations that are important for capital markets and organised commodity markets, aiming to align its regulatory framework with current legislation. The revised criteria are intended to provide a clearer and more comprehensive basis for determining which companies are of strategic importance to the economy and which employees can qualify for reservations, and the document was agreed with the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Defense. The updated criteria will be submitted for state registration to the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine and will enter into force after registration. The NSSMC will separately announce when it begins accepting documentation packages under the updated process.
