In 2025, the National Bank of Ukraine received 253.3 million hryvnias to repay problem debt on refinancing loans of insolvent banks. This was reported by the NBU press service, emphasizing that the process of returning such funds has been going on for more than one year.

The largest part of the proceeds in 2025 — 202 million hryvnias — was received due to the sale of pledged property rights under loan agreements of insolvent banks. This confirms the effectiveness of the NBU's work in managing problem assets and ensuring the return of funds to the state banking sector.

Another 16.1 million hryvnias came from the sale of pledged real estate of guarantors of insolvent banks within the framework of enforcement proceedings. In addition, 35.1 million hryvnias were received from other sources, which demonstrates the National Bank's comprehensive approach to debt repayment.

It is worth noting that since 2015, the National Bank has repaid a total of almost 20 billion hryvnias of debt on refinancing loans to insolvent banks. This indicates the regulator's systematic work in the field of minimizing risks and returning state funds.

As of January 1, 2026, the balance of debt on such loans amounted to 36.4 billion hryvnias. The NBU continues to take measures to fully repay this amount in the future, in particular by selling collateral and other assets of debtors.

Thus, the results of 2025 demonstrate progress in the repayment of problem loans and indicate a consistent policy of the National Bank to stabilize the banking system and protect state interests.
