On March 11, a meeting of the Non-Bank Lending Committee of the Association of Ukrainian Banks was held, chaired by Serhiy Sinchenko, CEO of Maniveo Quick Financial Assistance.
During the meeting, market participants analyzed the new requirements for financial companies being introduced by the National Bank of Ukraine and their impact on the non-bank lending sector.
One of the key topics was compliance with requirements for financial companies classified by the regulator as significant companies. Committee members reviewed the preparation of medium-term business plans for the second half of 2026 and subsequent years, as well as mechanisms for conducting annual self-assessments of the implementation of such plans.
Special attention was paid to the self-assessment of risks in the operations of financial companies. Participants identified approaches to organizing internal risk management processes, including the identification of key business processes, the definition of control points, and the analysis of potential risks.
The Committee also reviewed the proposed changes to the methods for calculating the equity capital of financial companies and their potential impact on the nonbank lending sector.
A significant portion of the meeting was devoted to compliance with financial monitoring requirements. Participants discussed the technical aspects of reporting to government agencies and the challenges market participants face when implementing these procedures.
“The non-bank lending market is currently actively adapting to new regulatory conditions. It is important for market participants to have the opportunity to exchange experiences and form a common expert position,” noted Committee Chairman Serhiy Sinchenko.
Following the meeting, Committee members agreed to continue the expert dialogue on current issues of non-bank lending regulation and to develop joint market proposals.
