As NBN reports with reference to the official Facebook profile of the regulator bank (NBU), the volume of cash issued by domestic banks during the first half of the year alone, increased by 12.6 percent, amounting to UAH 1,342.9 billion.
According to NBU analysts, this trend was provoked not only by the resumption of economic activity, dictated by the increase in wages and social assistance against the backdrop of moderate inflation rates or the maintenance of a stable situation in the domestic foreign exchange market.
