KYIV. Oct 10 (Interfax-Ukraine) – In August, the state-owned PrivatBank and Oschadbank topped the list of 43 profitable banks with a net profit of UAH 3.21 billion and UAH 2.85 billion, respectively.

According to the data published by the National Bank of Ukraine on its website, they worked with a profit despite the formation of an additional UAH 7.71 billion and UAH 620 million in reserves, respectively.

In addition, in August, PrivatBank showed an increase in total assets by UAH 14.95 billion, and Oschadbank – by UAH 8.22 billion, while the assets of the state-owned Ukreximbank immediately decreased by UAH 31.23 billion, which is probably due to the government’s receiving through it part of external financing and its spending.

Among other leaders in terms of profit in August were UkrSibbank – UAH 625 million, Citibank – UAH 444.4 million, Raiffeisen Bank – UAH 267.7 million, Universal Bank (monobank) – UAH 210.7 million, Ukrgasbank – UAH 143 million and OTP Bank – UAH 131.4 million.
