On February 24, the Cabinet of Ministers adopted a resolution on issuing "military" domestic government loan bonds (OVDPs) in the amount of up to 400 billion UAH. They will be issued in stages, the National Bank will buy them.
The yield rate is 11% per annum, the circulation period is up to 15 years, the coupon period is one year, and the par value of one bond is 1,000 UAH.
"The Ministry of Finance, when drawing up the draft state budget of Ukraine for the corresponding year, should provide funds for the repayment and maintenance of these OVDPs," the document reads.
It should be noted that the issue of OVDPs under such conditions is actually the issue of the hryvnia (money printing) that will have an impact on the acceleration of inflation.
