Individual customers of OTP Bank purchased domestic government bonds (OVDP) worth a total of UAH 2.78 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2025. This was announced by Valeria Ovcharuk, product owner at OTP BANK.
She noted that 20% of investments were made in hryvnia OVDPs and 80% in foreign currency. “As we can see, our clients choose a reliable and effective way to preserve and multiply their funds in foreign currency. Currently, individuals see this as the best investment option for their savings. For many, it is important to support the Ukrainian economy in this way, as securities are sold, among other things, to finance the state budget,” emphasized V. Ovcharuk.
In the first quarter, customers bought securities worth a total of UAH 1.29 billion from the Bank’s portfolio, while bonds worth UAH 1.49 billion were purchased directly at auctions held by the Ministry of Finance.
In total, since the launch of the OVDP purchase service in the OTP Bank UA app at the end of 2023, the Bank’s customers – individuals – have purchased OVDPs worth more than UAH 11 billion.
We would like to remind you that you can purchase OVDPs from the Bank’s portfolio or directly at Ministry of Finance auctions via the OTP Bank UA mobile app. In addition, the Bank has recently simplified the procedure for opening securities accounts – this can now be done remotely, with the help of OTP Bank UA, without the need to visit a branch.
