The Ukraine National Commission on Securities and Stock Market reported, via a Telegram post by Chair Ruslan Magomedov, that it has completed a pilot issuance of an agrarian note and is engaging with the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food to support adoption of the instrument in Ukraine’s agricultural market. The pilot was carried out with NDU and an IFC expert team and was recorded for the first time in the Register of Agrarian Notes with deposit in the Central Depository. The Commission framed agrarian notes as a mechanism for farmers to attract financing more quickly, supported by a process designed to be highly automated and to reduce paperwork and procedural burdens. Following a working meeting between Magomedov and Minister Vitaliy Koval, the Commission and the Ministry intend to cooperate on popularising the mechanism among agribusiness.
