In the capital of Ukraine, the conference InvestPro Ukraine supported by PNB Banka ended, having gathered approximately 200 delegates from around the world.

Particular importance at the event was attached to the issues of capital management and growth. Reports on the topics of investment, business immigration, asset protection and building of international structures were delivered to the attendees, among whom there were mainly financial and tax advisers, bankers, providers of trust and fiduciary services, investors and heads of large and medium enterprises.

Speakers told the delegates about the current trends in the banking compliance, and about the benefits of operation of companies and investment in different jurisdictions. Major part of the conference was devoted to the peculiarities of obtaining a residence permit and citizenship in EU Member States.

PNB Banka’s Board Member Dmitrii Kalmykov told the attendees about the latest requirements of the European banks at the account opening and to the use of financial instruments for capital protection. Mr Kalmykov reminded that securities are an off-balance-sheet instrument. Furthermore, according to him, for PNB Banka’s customers both investment funds (professional management of the customer’s funds in accordance with the chosen strategy) and brokerage (a customer itself makes a decision on the purchase or sale of a security) are available. Mr Kalmykov noted that lately PNB Banka’s investment funds have demonstrated stable growth, while PNB EM HIGH YIELD BOND FUND is currently amongst the leading funds in terms of dynamics as from the beginning of the year (+12.8%) under the category of funds of developing countries (Bloomberg statistics).

Another issue discussed at the conference was the participation of banks in the assessment of asset purchase and sale transactions. Today, even large legal and auditing companies recommend the customers to involve banks at an early stage of execution of the transactions. This allows the parties to the transactions to make sure that the execution of the transactions is possible.

It is worth reminding that in early June representatives of PNB Banka took part in a similar conference in Baku.
