10 April 2013

Ukraine’s monetary base increased 0.5% mom (+0.3% YTD) and its money supply (M3) grew 1.5% mom (+3.5% YTD) in March, according to National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) data released on April 9. Purchases of state bonds by the NBU halved mom in March to UAH 3.0 bln, according to the data.

Alexander Paraschiy: The NBU increased its exposure to the government by UAH 3.0 bln in March, while state deposits reportedly increased only UAH 0.8 bln. Therefore, net loans to the government contributed the most to the monetary base.
