In an interview with Interfax-Ukraine, the chair of the Ukraine National Commission on Securities and Stock Market said he wants to see five well-known issuers complete public offerings in Ukraine by the end of his term on 23 February 2027, with secondary public offerings expected to be more likely than initial public offerings. Potential candidates cited included Ukrposhta, where he said discussions are ongoing with its chief executive, alongside state-owned banks and possibly Ukrzaliznytsia, with offerings framed as minority stake sales. He linked the push to creating investable options beyond government bonds and bank deposits, including for pension funds, and described the Commission’s key task as attracting bona fide issuers and setting clear, simple steps for public issuance.
