Not only the tax authorities: who else will gain access to the banking secrets of Ukrainians

According to hvylya.net: The Ukrainian government is preparing for the country's entry into the European Payments Area (SEPA). The proposed bill includes the creation of a centralized registry of all bank accounts and safes of individuals so that the State Tax Service can access this information. The registry will also be open to other state bodies by court decision.

'Slowly, but surely, banking secrecy is ceasing to be a secret,'

According to Finance Minister Sergey Marchenko, these changes are necessary for joining SEPA and comply with European standards. Despite experts' doubts, the implementation of these changes is a mandatory step for the country.

Ukraine is moving towards joining the European Payments Area, adapting to European standards and ensuring access to information about citizens' bank accounts for state authorities.
