  6. HARACTERISTICS OF A MARKET STRUCTURE

The introduction of a new currency would have been impossible without a well developed and efficient currency market. Ukrainian legislation requires the mandatory conversion, through authorised banks on the Interbank Currency Market of Ukraine, of 50 per cent of foreign currency received by residents at the market rate. Such a requirement led to the development of the currency market in Ukraine with over $350mn traded monthly on the Interbank Currency Market alone, even though hard currency receipts of enterprises with foreign investments from sales of products, services or works produced by themselves are exempt.

Further exemptions from the 50 per cent mandatory conversion are:

· Payments in foreign currency received on the account of a Ukrainian resident acting as on agent under a contract of agency provided that those payments are transferred to the principal selling entity, which can be resident or non-resident.

· Investments in foreign currency contributed to the authorised capital of legal entities with foreign investments by foreign investors.

· Payments in foreign currency received by Ukrainian citizens (except Ukrainian sole proprietors) from non-residents of Ukraine.

· Foreign currency purchased at the Interbank Currency Market.

· Foreign currency reserves of authorised bonks.

Residents and non-residents of Ukraine need on individual license from the National Bank of Ukraine for effecting currency operations, except for:

· Foreign currency which was duly brought into Ukraine at an earlier date.

· Foreign currency payments related to foreign trade transactions.

· Foreign currency payments related to credit, interest and dividends.

· Foreign and Ukrainian currency taken out of Ukraine by residents of Ukraine (up to the limits specified by the National Bank of Ukraine).

· Repatriation of foreign investment amounts in the case of termination of investment activity.

Bringing foreign currency into Ukraine is not subject to licensing.
