2025 Asset Declaration of Tetiana Krupa

According to Главком: In her 2025 asset declaration, Tetiana Krupa, the former head of the Khmelnytskyi Regional Medical and Social Examination Center, disclosed her income and assets, some of which have been seized by law enforcement. Krupa is suspected of illicit enrichment amounting to 160 million UAH, an investigation into which has been concluded. A court has allowed her to be released from pre-trial detention on bail. This case is part of a broader anti-corruption drive in Ukraine, where public officials are required to declare their wealth annually.

Income and Assets

Krupa's 2025 declaration listed a total income of approximately 3 million UAH. This included:

• A salary of 36.8 thousand UAH from the Khmelnytskyi medical and social examination center;
• A pension of 193.7 thousand UAH;
• Over 120 thousand UAH from property rental;
• 882 thousand UAH from electricity sales to Khmelnytskenergozbut;
• 1.8 million UAH in dividends from the firm Solar-Invest.

The Solar-Invest firm is owned by Tetiana Krupa, her husband Volodymyr, and their son Oleksandr.

Her husband, Volodymyr Krupa, declared an income of 6.2 million UAH. This sum comprised 3.7 million UAH from electricity sales, 1.8 million UAH in Solar-Invest dividends, and a pension of 283.6 thousand UAH. During 2025, the couple acquired no new real estate, maintaining ownership of 68 properties. Their vehicle fleet consists of two Porsche Cayenne models, from 2019 and 2024.

Tetiana Krupa also declared luxury accessories seized by authorities, specifically Dior earrings valued at 700.7 thousand UAH and a Rolex watch worth 405 thousand UAH. She listed cash holdings of 2.5 million UAH and 4.8 thousand euros, plus 595 thousand US dollars recorded as a prepayment. Her foreign accounts hold 4.9 thousand euros in two Austrian banks and 2.5 thousand dollars in a Polish bank. In Ukraine, she holds 1.34 million UAH in bank accounts.

Volodymyr Krupa declared cash holdings of 789 thousand dollars and 1.5 million UAH. His Ukrainian bank accounts contain 3.3 million UAH, 24.4 thousand dollars, and 26.1 thousand euros. His foreign holdings include 205.6 thousand dollars, 11.3 thousand euros, and 3.4 thousand zloty in Polish banks, along with 4.9 thousand euros in Austrian banks. He also listed funds seized by authorities: 3.72 million dollars, 135.2 thousand euros, and 1.19 million UAH.

The investigation into Tetiana Krupa was initiated by the State Bureau of Investigations (DBR) and transferred to the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) in October 2024. The court established that between 2020 and 2024, she illicitly enriched herself by the stated amount. Part of these funds were laundered through fictitious real estate sales, with the money subsequently moved abroad and deposited into foreign bank accounts. The individuals' actions have been classified under relevant articles of Ukraine's Criminal Code.

This case has generated significant public attention due to the scale of the alleged illicit enrichment and the suspects' connections to state structures. It underscores persistent corruption issues in Ukraine, particularly within medical and social services, highlighting the ongoing need for reforms to enhance transparency and accountability in public institutions. Such cases are critical tests for Ukraine's judicial and anti-corruption systems as the country pursues closer integration with the European Union.

As the investigation into corruption continues, it's crucial to examine other recent cases that highlight similar issues in the medical field. For instance, a group of doctors in Vinnytsia was recently arrested for their involvement in a fraudulent disability scheme, leading to the seizure of $200,000. This case underscores the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement in combatting corruption within healthcare.
