The Ukraine National Commission on Securities and Stock Market held a working meeting with the Professional Association of Capital Markets and Derivatives Participants to discuss regulatory policy priorities and directions for capital market development, including the planned launch of personal investment accounts. The Commission chair underlined the need for coordination with the National Bank of Ukraine and an active role for banks in generating demand so that the accounts function as a practical tool. Regulation of non-public issues was a separate focus, with participants agreeing that simply removing requirements would not stimulate the market and that a more balanced revision of the regulatory model is needed to reflect current conditions. The agenda also covered audits and letters of assurance, depository legislation, the work of the Advisory Expert Council, and the model for self-regulatory organisations, alongside calls to reduce excessive compliance burden, increase openness of regulatory processes, and align reforms with consolidated, public support from market participants.
