The IMF did not agree with the firing of Rozhkova, therefore, Danylyshina «will merge “immediately upon resignation.
As reported to NV Business, Western creditors set a condition for Ukraine than for the independence of the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU), it is impossible to remove the remaining members of the board of the previous team, Katerina Rozhkova and Dmitry Sologub. In case of dismissal from the post of the first deputy director of the NBU, Rozhkova, the head of the NBU Council, Bohdan Danylyshyn, will also be removed from the NBU, presenting him as the initiator and culprit of this decision. “During the last days of large-scale negotiations with the IMF on the independence of the NBU, on the eve of the issue of the firing of Rozhkova, negotiators realized that Danilishin could become a bargaining chip with the IMF after the Council the NBU will make that decision. Once this decision is made, Danylyshyn can be found guilty, ”an informed source close to the relevant negotiation process told NV Business. In addition, together with Danilishin, the IMF considers it necessary to withdraw from the NBU Council, Vitaly Shapran recently noted.
As the NV Business source clarified, on October 16 the issue of Katerina Rozhkova’s dismissal will be placed on the agenda of the NBU Council. “100% are going to vote,” he said.
Let us remember that the Council (NBU) on October 2, considered various organizational and personnel issues, and decided to reprimand and not express confidence in Katerina Rozhkova and NBU deputy director Dmitry Sologub. The reason for this decision was his comments to the media. Central Bank President Kirill Shevchenko voted in favor, explained reprimands for the fact that Rozhkova and Sologub raped «the one voice policy ”. According to the head of the National Bank, this decision of the NBU Council does not mean that he wants Rozhkova and Sologub to leave their posts. Vitaly Shapran, Board member of NBU, said the reprimands were done cleanly «educational purposes “, adding that «In the elegant 1990s, some of the board members simply met in the driveway of their own home.
Rozhkova believes that reprimanding her and Sologub is «the victory of the past over the future ”and“ an alarming sign for the independence of the National Bank ”. The IMF also warned about the situation: on October 8, IMF Resident Representative Jost Lyngman made an official statement, noting that «ensure that the responsibility of the NBU board must be carried out in accordance with the management principles of the National Bank ”. Following the IMF mission, Rozhkova and Sologuba were reprimanded at the US Embassy in Kiev and in the EU. The independence of the NBU is one of the main points of the IMF-Ukraine memorandum.
As you know, Bogdan Danylyshyn is loyal to former PrivatBank owners Igor Kolomoisky and Gennady Bogolyubov. Against the latter, the United States FBI investigates money laundering. Previously, Danylyshyn stated the need for a constructive dialogue with the former owners of PrivatBank. Note that former Minister of Economy in Yulia Tymoshenko’s government Bogdan Danylyshyn was previously on the wanted list on the Interpol website. Kolomoisky himself spoke out publicly against Rozhkova working for the NBU.
Note that, in the context of the information about the dismissal of Rozhkova, the media began to actively discuss the issue of the claim from the Private Deposit Guarantee Fund. (FGVFL) against members of the Board of Platinum Bank, including Rozhkova.
In August 2020, FGVFL filed a lawsuit with the Kiev City Economic Court for damages to 12 individuals related to Platinum Bank in the amount of more than 1,478 billion UAH. The FGVFL has already announced the manipulation of this information. “The claim for recovery of losses was submitted by the Deposit Guarantee Fund against related parties of PJSC Platinum Bank, including Ekaterina Rozhkova, in accordance with the general procedure provided for by law, applied to all banks transferred to the management of the Fund Deposit Guarantee. The Deposit Guarantee Fund has always maintained the position that everyone is equal before the law, and does not make exceptions for anyone, fulfilling the functions assigned to it by law, says the official statement of the FGVFL. – The Kiev Economic Court returned the claim for the Deposit Guarantee Fund to the former managers of PJSC Platinum Bank without consideration, justifying this by the absence of grounds to combine the claims in case No. 910 / 12955/20. There are no other reasons. “
The NV Biznes source also clarified that there was a plan to hand over the suspicions to Rozhkova and Sologub and then fire them. “The suspicion scenario was definitely at least as of yesterday morning (October 14 – Ed.) “, – added a source from NV.
