On April 2, the municipal enterprise Kyivpastrans announced its intention to enter into an agreement with Guardian Insurance Company for carrier liability insurance covering damage to the life and health of passengers, as well as damage to luggage during transport, on motor vehicles and urban electric vehicles.
According to the Prozorro electronic public procurement system, the estimated cost of the services was UAH 15.111 million, while the bid from the company—the sole participant in the tender—was UAH 14.429 million.
Insurance Company “Guardian” is a member of the Presidium of the League of Insurance Organizations of Ukraine. Since January 2020, it has held full membership status in the Motor Transport Insurance Bureau of Ukraine (MTIBU) and is authorized to issue “Green Card” policies.
According to the NBU, the company ranks 15th among Ukraine’s non-life insurers in terms of premiums collected in 2025.
Serbia will allocate EUR2 million to support Ukraine’s energy sector במסגרת a joint project with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Telegram channel “Serbian Economist” reported, citing official data.
According to the report, the Government of the Republic of Serbia and UNDP signed an agreement providing for the financing of the procurement and delivery of high-voltage transformers. These are critical pieces of equipment needed to restore electricity transmission systems and ensure stable power supply.
The funds will be provided under UNDP’s green energy recovery programme for Ukraine. The initiative is aimed at supporting basic services in the regions most affected by the war, including electricity, heating and water supply.
Serbian Ambassador to Ukraine Andon Sapundji said that Belgrade’s contribution is intended to support critical infrastructure and help ensure uninterrupted energy supply for the population.
In turn, UNDP Resident Representative in Ukraine Auke Lootsma stressed that Serbia’s assistance will contribute not only to the restoration of damaged facilities, but also to the modernization of Ukraine’s energy system.
According to international estimates, since 2022 Ukraine’s energy infrastructure has suffered extensive destruction. Total losses in the sector are estimated at $88.2 billion, of which about $17.1 billion relates specifically to the power sector, including generation and transmission.
The project is being implemented as part of cooperation between Ukraine and the United Nations in the field of sustainable development and is in line with the strategic goal of transitioning to a more resilient and modern energy system.
According to Fixygen, PJSC “European Insurance Alliance” will hold a shareholders’ meeting on April 30, 2026, via remote format. The agenda includes approval of financial statements, financial results, and decisions regarding current corporate governance.
The company operates in the Ukrainian insurance market and serves corporate and private clients. According to Opendatabot, the key beneficiaries are Ukrainian private shareholders.
The company is among the prominent players in the insurance sector.
According to Fixygen, the cryptocurrency market is ending the week with cautious growth, but remains highly sensitive to macroeconomic factors and regulatory signals. Major assets remain in an uptrend, though momentum is becoming less stable and volatility is gradually returning.
Bitcoin has consolidated above key levels, demonstrating resilience amid inflows into ETFs and continued interest from institutional investors. At the same time, the market is increasingly reacting not to crypto news, but to the macroeconomic agenda—expectations regarding Fed rates, dollar dynamics, and geopolitical risks. Any signals of monetary policy tightening intensify pressure on the market, while dovish rhetoric supports growth.
Ethereum is showing more subdued dynamics. The market continues to assess the prospects for network upgrades and institutional demand, but some capital is flowing into riskier segments. This is reflected in growing interest in altcoins and second-tier projects, where more volatile price swings are observed.
Regulators remain a separate topic of the week. In the US and the EU, attention is intensifying on crypto platforms, AML issues, and the stability of stablecoins. The market perceives this in two ways: on the one hand, increased regulation creates pressure; on the other, it shapes a more transparent institutional environment, which is important for long-term capital.
At the industry level, infrastructure development continues. Major players are betting on asset tokenization, AI integration, and the development of on-chain services. This sustains overall interest in the sector, despite short-term fluctuations.
In the near term, the market could follow several scenarios.
The base case is consolidation with moderate growth. In this scenario, Bitcoin holds current levels and gradually updates local highs, while the altcoin market continues to see selective gains.
The positive scenario is accelerated growth supported by macroeconomic factors and an influx of institutional capital. In this case, a transition to a more aggressive market phase is possible, with growth expanding across the entire spectrum of assets.
The negative scenario is a correction amid tightening monetary policy or increased regulatory pressure. In this case, the market could quickly return to lower levels with increased volatility.
Thus, the cryptocurrency market is ending the week in a balance between growth expectations and external risks, and the key factor in the near term remains not so much the industry’s internal dynamics as the global macro environment.
