Getmantsev proposed the government to oblige Ukrainians to buy government bonds

Not long ago, Danylo Getmantsev boasted of a record influx of funds from the “de-shadowing” of the liquor market in Ukraine, but even this money was not enough to cover the needs of the state budget.

As reported by “NBN” with a link on the official Telegram profile of the head of the parliamentary committee on finance, tax and customs policy Danylo Getmantsev, the decision obliging all Ukrainians to purchase domestic government loan bonds (DGLB) will increase the financing of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, while simultaneously supporting the stability of the domestic market for such assets.

Getmantsev justified his controversial initiative by citing the example of Israel, which in the 70s of the last century introduced a mandatory military loan, where 7 percent of citizens' income was redirected to the purchase of an identical type of bonds.

Also, the people's representative said that he had already sent relevant proposals to the Ministry of Finance and the NBU regarding the development of individual plans for the strict participation of the population in the purchase of such “securities” during wartime.

At the same time, the head of the relevant committee of the Verkhovna Rada added—the volume of demand for OVGZs is growing regularly, and in October, amazing results were achieved at auctions for their placement: 106.9 billion hryvnias were raised.

Earlier, our information portal wrote about the National Bank answering whether the October tax hike would affect prices in Ukraine.
