The Verkhovna Rada Committee on Finance, Tax, and Customs Policy recommended that the draft Law of Ukraine No. 15172 \u201cOn Securitization and Covered Bonds\u201d proceed to its second reading. Following the first reading, amendments were made to the draft law that strengthen market regulations and consumer protection in the financial services sector, and clarify the powers of the Commission and the NBU.<\/p>\n
This draft law is one of the key pieces of legislation for the development of capital markets and the alignment of Ukrainian legislation with European regulations. It allows the introduction of securitization and covered bonds in Ukraine \u2014 instruments that help EU countries attract long-term financing.<\/p>\n
The document was substantially revised prior to the second reading. In particular, it provides for:<\/p>\n
\u2022 uniform restrictions on market participants associated with the aggressor state, temporarily occupied territories, sanctions, non-transparent structures, and high-risk jurisdictions;
\n\u2022 the same restrictions on financial assets that may serve as the basis for securitization;
\n\u2022 additional protection for consumers of financial services during the assignment of a loan claim;
\n\u2022 clearer rules regarding financial assets that may be included in a securitization pool, in particular non-performing financial assets;
\n\u2022 additional requirements for a specialized financing platform, institutional investors, and other market participants, particularly regarding risk management and the maintenance of information on the origin and quality of assets.<\/p>\n
The draft law also clarifies the division of powers between the Commission and the National Bank of Ukraine regarding the regulation and supervision of the relevant instruments.<\/p>\n
As a reminder, the Verkhovna Rada passed the draft law No. 15172 on its first reading on 30 June 2026<\/a>.
