Personnel changes may be on the horizon in Ukraine’s financial sector. Former MP Boryslav Bereza reported, citing his own sources, that questions may soon arise regarding the continued tenure of Philip Pronin, head of the State Financial Monitoring Service; Andriy Pyshnyy, head of the National Bank of Ukraine; and Oleksiy Stupak, chairman of the board of Sens Bank, according to "Komersant Ukrainian"

Borislav Bereza claims that personnel reshuffles may begin following the high-profile events surrounding former Head of the President’s Office Andriy Yermak.

“Conversations with ‘malicious tongues from Bankova’ and some good people give reason to believe that we will soon see a personnel purge as a result of Yermak’s detention in a pretrial detention center and other factors,” Bereza wrote.

According to him, potential personnel decisions could affect several officials in the very near future.

Who Bereza named among the possible candidates for dismissal

In his post, Bereza mentioned Philip Pronin, head of the State Financial Monitoring Service. He suggested that Pronin could be among the officials subject to personnel decisions.

“Finmonitoring Head Pronin. But it would be preferable for him to return to Ukraine from his current business trip abroad first,” Bereza stated.

In this context, he also mentioned Pronin’s deputy.

“By the way, Korolchuk, Pronin’s deputy, is also on his way out,” the former MP wrote.

Separately, Bereza mentioned possible changes in the leadership of “SENS Bank.” In his post, he mentioned the bank’s chairman, Oleksiy Stupak.

“Sens Bank Chairman of the Board Oleksiy Stupak may not only be preparing to be dismissed from his position, but also to begin giving testimony,” Bereza’s statement reads.

He also suggested that a new informal supervisor might be appointed at the bank.

“It appears that Sens Bank will have a new overseer from the Presidential Office,” Bereza wrote.

Resignation of the NBU Governor

Another official Bereza mentioned in the context of possible personnel decisions was Andriy Pyshnyy, Chairman of the National Bank of Ukraine.

“Andriy Pyshny went on a business trip to avoid attending the Temporary Investigation Commission. But this trip and the public removal of the bracelets Yermak gave him are unlikely to help him keep his seat as NBU Governor,” Bereza stated.
