The National Bank of Ukraine has once again reaffirmed the status of a systemically important bank for JSC “First Ukrainian International Bank” (FUIB) following its annual review. This status means increased requirements in respect to risk management, liquidity and capital, and demonstrates FUIB’s key role in maintaining the stability of the country’s financial system.
Recognition as a systemically important institution by the National Bank confirms FUIB’s significant contribution to the development of Ukrainian economy. Since 2022, the bank has paid over UAH 13.5 billion in taxes, providing significant support to the state budget.
FUIB consistently ranks among the leaders in Ukraine’s banking sector across key financial indicators. In 2024, the bank placed in the Top 6 in terms of total assets, deposit portfolio, and loan portfolio. It ranked 4th by equity capital, and was among the Top 8 most profitable banks by net profit. These achievements reflect the bank’s reliability, efficiency, and the high level of trust it enjoys from clients and partners alike.
The bank serves 1.9 million individual clients and 145,000 corporate clients, while the FUIB mobile app is one of the most popular digital banking platforms in the country, used by over 1.9 million customers.
FUIB is also among the Top 5 banks with the largest physical branch network – with 207 branches, 97% of which are fully accessible for people with disabilities. This demonstrates the bank’s strong commitment to inclusive banking.
“For us, confirmation of our status as a systemically important bank is not just a formality, but recognition of our responsibility to our customers and the country’s economy.We continue to actively develop infrastructure, digital services and inclusiveness in order to be a true partner to Ukrainians and businesses during these difficult times,” commented FUIB’s Board Chairman Serhiy Chernenko.
