“These awards attest to our continued success in delivering creative, world-class solutions to our clients and partners across the product spectrum. We aim to simplify processes and increase market accessibility for our clients. A great example is the ICU Trade online platform, which launched last year. It provides all private Ukrainian investors with the possibility to invest in Ukrainian government bonds in real time with just a few clicks. This is the kind of digital-first innovation we will continue to strive for across fixed income, asset management, investment advisory and venture capital sectors.”
