All about P2P transfer limits in Ukraine

The limits are needed to ensure the transparency of financial transactions. They help combat the shadow economy and illegal activities, including money laundering and financing of terrorism.

They also allow us to comply with European standards. Having these limits, all together, we are able to create a more reliable and secure financial system in Ukraine.
