The law provides for the protection of the Ukrainian financial system from the actions of Russians and residents of the aggressor state.
On Friday, November 4, the Verkhovna Rada generally adopted bill No. 8008 to protect the financial system of Ukraine from the actions of the Russian Federation. This was announced by People’s Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak.
The document provides:
-
not entering into the management of the subjects of the main financial monitoring of persons who are citizens of the Russian Federation;
-
expanding the list of high-risk clients of citizens and legal entities resident of the Russian Federation, and / or activities related to it;
-
establishing the obligation for the main financial monitoring entities to report to the State Financial Monitoring Service on threshold transactions with entities related to Russia.
As Zheleznyak noted, the Rada in the second reading adopted amendments 16, 19 and 22, which reduced the status of PEP (politically exposed persons) from life to three years after taking office.
“The amendment was removed for the second reading, when people with significant economic and political weight in public life (oligarchs) were classified as a high risk of business relations,” specified the representative of citizen
It will be remembered that at yesterday’s meeting, on November 3, the Rada raised taxes for currency exchanges.
