The Ukraine National Commission on Securities and Stock Market announced that a presentation will be held on 17 December at 16:00 at the Ukraine Crisis Media Center for a draft law to amend the Tax Code of Ukraine and other laws to encourage individual investment and support national issuers, including the introduction of investment accounts. The proposal would allow any Ukrainian to open an investment account and, provided funds are kept for five years, receive passive income without taxation, while early withdrawals would be taxed on a general basis. The event’s speakers are Member of Parliament Taras Tarasenko and NSSMC Chairman Ruslan Magomedov, with registration required by 10:00 on 17 December and an online broadcast available.
