The amount of losses in the criminal case against Privatbank is over UAH 100 billion.

This was stated by the director of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) Artem Sytnik in an interview with radio NV.

" This amount is approximate for today, since in cases where losses are incriminated, it is important that these losses are confirmed by appropriate expert studies, "

He also clarified that since NABU does not have the ability and authority to conduct examinations, they are forced to apply for their conduct to other state bodies - the SBU, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Justice.. At the moment, examinations in these departments are continuing, and he does not exclude that the amount of losses will increase.

The head of NABU said that according to the results of the examinations, the amount inflicted on the state may approach the $ 10 billion mark.

In December 2017, PrivatBank filed a lawsuit in the High Court of London against the former owners and six companies that they allegedly own or are under their control.. We are talking about the companies Teamtrend, Trade Point Agro, Collyer, Rossyan Investing Corp. , Milbert Ventures Inc. and Ukrtransitservice.

As an interim measure, the court seized the assets of the ex-owners of the bank and these companies in the amount of more than $ 2.5 billion worldwide.. In November 2019, the case against PrivatBank was transferred from the General Prosecutor's Office to the National Anti-Corruption Bureau.
