On October 2, 2025, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, purchased 101 dollar-denominated government bonds with a total amount of 4.2 million UAH, with a nominal value of 41.1 thousand UAH each.
This information was published in Zelenskyy’s report on the website of the National Agency for Prevention of Corruption (NACP).
The reason the President of Ukraine preferred foreign currency government bonds (internal government loan bonds) over those denominated in Ukrainian hryvnia is not specified.
Earlier, on September 29, 2025, Volodymyr Zelenskyy received a payout for previous investments in government bonds in the same total amount of 4.2 million UAH. Already in 2024, he also invested in foreign currency government bonds.
It is worth noting that government bonds have a tax advantage: individuals are not required to pay 23% (18% personal income tax + 5% military levy) on income, as is required for income from bank deposits. This is enshrined in legislation.
