Alfa-Bank Ukraine Application regarding the Information from the Office of the General Prosecutor of Ukraine

Information from the Office of the General Prosecutor of Ukraine.

We are aware of the fact of suspicion service and at the same time we see no basis for this accusation. Within all cases regarding the business entities in Ukraine, suspicion service is one of the most common actions of law enforcement bodies.

According to the criminal case qualification, it is said about so-called possible non-payment of taxes.

From our part, we cooperate with law enforcement bodies and we are sure that after studying the materials the investigation will withdraw all accusations.

Alfa-Bank Ukraine works according to the legislation of Ukraine and international standards. We pay attention to the fact that the banking sector is one of the most strictly and controlled fields.

Alfa-Bank has never withdrawn funds from Ukraine. The Bank is one of the largest tax payers of Ukraine. We pay approx. 1.5 bln taxes of all levels annually.

During the war we provided the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the help of UAH 80 mln.

The amount being incriminated in the size of UAH 18 mln is incomparably small, so in general there is no logic to attempt to not pay it.

We believe that law enforcement officers will figure everything out and tax non-payment accusations against one of the biggest banks of Ukraine will be the unfortunate misunderstanding.
