    Euro payments should become faster and cheaper through Ukraine's accession to SEPA

    Ukraine is approaching accession to the European payment system SEPA, which should make euro transfers faster and cheaper. At the same time, Ukraine plans to create a registry of bank accounts and safes, change the financial monitoring threshold and improve the rules for disclosing information about ultimate beneficiaries. At the same time, banking secrecy is promised to be preserved.

    The Verkhovna Rada has already supported the corresponding draft law in the first reading. We explain what changes are being prepared for citizens, businesses and the banking system and when they may take effect.

    Cheaper euro transfers and access to the European payment space

    As explained by the Ministry of Finance, accession to SEPA should simplify international settlements for Ukrainians and businesses.

    • How it is now: during transfers from European countries to Ukraine, several intermediary banks may be involved, due to which commissions for one operation sometimes reach several dozen euros.

  • How it will be: after integration into the European payment space, euro transfers should become faster and cheaper. Commissions are expected to range from 0 to 5 euros, and the number of intermediaries in the payment chain will decrease.

    • Registry of bank accounts

  • bank accounts,

  • securities accounts,

  • payment and other accounts,

  • electronic wallets,

  • as well as agreements on the use of individual bank safes.

    • Verification of beneficiaries and protection of whistleblowers

    Corruption currently worries Ukrainians the most — survey results

    When the innovations will take effect
