The Guarantee Fund has updated the list of debtors of bankrupt banks: borrowers have been warned about enforcement proceedings.

The Deposit Guarantee Fund (DGF) has updated the list of debtors of insolvent banks on its official website. The list includes borrowers who, as of January 1, 2026, have not complied with court decisions on debt repayment.
This was reported by the FGDFO, according to "Komersant Ukrainian".
Who is on the list
The Fund specifies that these are borrowers who are not managers or former shareholders of bankrupt banks but have overdue obligations confirmed by court decisions.
According to the Law “On the System of Guaranteeing Deposits of Individuals,” information about such debtors is not considered banking secrecy and may be made public.
Why is the Fund publishing this data?
The FGDFO emphasizes that the repayment of debts by borrowers is one of the key sources of funds for settlements with creditors of banks that are in liquidation.
According to the Fund’s logic, the publication of the list should encourage debtors to voluntarily comply with court decisions and reduce the need for enforcement.
What options do debtors have
The Fund notes that borrowers can:
- repay the debt in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement;
- take advantage of the restructuring programs offered by the FGDFO.
This allows them to avoid lawsuits and enforcement of decisions.
How the list is formed and updated
Lists of debtors are compiled in accordance with the requirements of the Law “On Access to Court Decisions” and contain only information that was made public during the announcement of court decisions.
The data is updated quarterly.
At the end of 2025, the Fund sold the assets of ten banks in liquidation through the Prozorro.Prozori system, raising almost UAH 1.5 billion. These funds, as well as proceeds from debt repayments, are used to satisfy creditors’ claims in the order specified by law.
In addition, the FGDFO won several lawsuits against Russia last year in an attempt to compensate for the losses caused to the Ukrainian banking system.
