The head of the National Bank of Ukraine Kyrylo Shevchenko announced his resignation due to health problems.

 "Friends, due to reasons related to health, which I cannot continue to ignore, I have made a difficult decision for myself. I am leaving the position of the head of the National Bank of Ukraine," Shevchenko wrote.

 According to him, he has already appealed to the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, with a request to accept his resignation.

 According to the mass media, one of the candidates for Shevchenko's replacement is Andrii Pishniy, the ex-head of Oschadbank.

 As a reminder, Shevchenko was appointed head of the NBU on July 16, 2020, and he held this position for more than two years.
