Since the beginning of 2024, the clients of JSC OTP BANK – individuals – have purchased domestic government bonds for a total amount of UAH 3.1 billion.
The number of transactions in the first half of the year amounted to 1897, which is 137% more than in the same period of 2023.
Investments in domestic government bonds in 2024 were made in two ways: customers purchased bonds directly at auctions of the Ministry of Finance through the OTP Bank UA app or from the Bank’s own portfolio, also using the app.
During the first and second quarters, securities totaling UAH 2.8 billion in equivalent were purchased at the Ministry of Finance auctions.
Total sales from the Bank’s portfolio by the end of the second quarter amounted to UAH 305 million in equivalent.
We remind you that the service for purchasing government bonds from its own portfolio in the OTP Bank UA application was launched two months ago, at the end of May 2024.
“Investing in domestic government bonds is not only an opportunity to support Ukraine’s financial stability in times of war, but also a good opportunity to diversify your savings and earn additional income in both hryvnia and foreign currency. Moreover, the repayment of funds is fully guaranteed by the state, so it is also a guarantee of the safety of savings. We offer our customers different ways to invest – they can buy government bonds directly from the auction or at any convenient time from the Bank’s portfolio, with the best rate, maturity, in the chosen currency, 24/7,” said Valeria Ovcharuk, product owner of OTP BANK.
In total, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, OTP Bank’s individual clients have invested more than UAH 11.5 billion in government bonds in equivalent.
