Motor (Transport) Insurance Bureau of Ukraine (MTSBU) has made 6.763 thousand payments from the Victims Protection Fund (VPF) in January-November 2023, which is 33.2% more than in the same period of 2022. According to the MTSBU report on its website, the total amount of such payments increased by 44.6% to UAH 393.7 million compared to January-November.
The largest volume of payments – UAH 269.5 mln, or 68.5% in terms of the amount and 4.3 thousand in terms of the number of payments for damage caused by the perpetrators of road accidents who do not have a valid CMTPL insurance policy. Compared to the corresponding period of 2022, the number of such payments increased by 33%, the amount – by 89.1%.
This trend is increasing due to the socio-economic consequences of the war.

For the liabilities of companies that have ceased to operate in the MTPL insurance market, but recognized bankrupt in accordance with the procedure established by law, payments were made at the expense of the guarantee contributions of such insurers in the amount of UAH 34.4 million available in the MTSBU FZP.
The MTSBU also notes that the minimum regulatory payments for accidents caused by an unidentified vehicle (such cases are paid only on the fact of threat to life and health) remain UAH 4.4 mln, and those caused by cars that were seized as a result of unlawful actions – UAH 0.22 mln.
