Ministry of Finance Raises ₴1.3 Billion Through Domestic Government Bonds

According to a statement from the press service of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, a recent auction successfully attracted ₴1.3 billion to the state budget through the issuance of domestic government bonds (OVDP). This development underscores the government's active role in securing financial resources during a difficult period, especially in the context of the ongoing war.

The information provided by the ministry indicates that bonds with a maturity of 1.3 years and an interest rate of 15.15% per annum generated nearly ₴604 million in budget revenues. Meanwhile, bonds with a two-year maturity and an interest rate of 15.87% per annum brought in ₴656 million to the state treasury. These figures reflect a stable interest from investors in government securities, despite the economic challenges the country faces.

Since the beginning of 2026, the government has already raised over ₴124.6 billion through the issuance of OVDP, and since the onset of the full-scale war in Ukraine, this amount has exceeded ₴2.2 trillion. These numbers indicate that the demand for government bonds remains high, which is a positive signal for the financial stability of the country.

It is noteworthy that in March 2026, citizen investments in OVDP reached a historical high. As of April 1, 2026, the volume of domestic government bonds held by individuals reached ₴131.6 billion. This reflects a growing trust among the population in government financial instruments, which could become a crucial factor in the further development of the economy.

Raising funds through OVDP is an essential tool for financing government expenditures, particularly in wartime, when the country requires significant resources to maintain defense capabilities and social programs. The Ministry of Finance continues to actively work on attracting investments, which helps ensure budget stability and supports economic development.

It is important to note that the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine regularly conducts auctions for the placement of OVDP, which not only allows for the attraction of funds to the budget but also supports liquidity in the financial market. Investors, both legal entities and individuals, have the opportunity to invest in government securities, which serve as a reliable instrument for capital preservation in times of economic instability.
