Укрпошта Announces Bank Acquisition Initiative
Initially, the system will operate for a financial company, with plans to adapt it for a banking institution. The tender was published on November 6, 2026, in the Prozorro system. The tender also includes 16 technical support services, software updates, and maintenance. The adaptation to regulatory requirements of the National Bank of Ukraine is also planned. The proposals will be evaluated by November 22, 2026. The announcement was made in January 2025, with plans to launch as a financial inclusion bank with a special restricted banking license. The initiative includes opening accounts, payments, and social benefits, with the potential to serve clients at home. The legal basis for this model was established by Law No. 4465-IX, which was approved by the Verkhovna Rada on June 3, 2025, and came into effect on June 26, 2026. Such institutions can serve individuals, legal entities, local and non-profit organizations, as well as government agencies and local self-government bodies.
