Two banker sisters from Dnipro funneled more than 113 billion UAH through their bank and walked away unscathed. This concerns Yulia and Olena Sosedok — owners of JSC “ACB CONCORD,” which was used to launder dirty money, mix funds, and serve the gambling business. Together they owned 100% of the bank’s shares: Yulia — 43,7675%, Olena — 56,2325%. In addition to control of the banking institution, Olena Sosedka was the wife of Mishalov — secretary of the Dnipro City Council and owner of several Telegram channels, who holds 18 000 bitcoins, clearly not earned on a civil servant’s salary. The family’s main line of business is servicing the gambling industry, but the NBU of Pyshnyi eventually knocked the Sosedoks out of the game by revoking the bank’s license and liquidating CONCORD.
Through CONCORD, contracts with a group of legal entities channeled 112,956 billion UAH — effectively more than one hundred billion hryvnias of financial flows. The bank signed contracts with a group of 7 legal entities and processed nearly 113 billion UAH via internet acquiring and P2P. From 1 July 2022 to 22 January 2023, internet acquiring, P2P, A2C and C2A transactions totaled 46,47 billion UAH — almost half of the entire flow in just six months during the full-scale war. These were not isolated payments but a large-scale transfer system where money moved among numerous entities and payment instruments.
The story involving the bank’s clients who claimed to trade gaming items looks even more interesting
The funds came from the sites pm.ua, parimatch.com and favbet.com, but five clients had no gambling licenses. Four of them shared the same owner, director, and address, and through the bank 1 149 556 P2P Debit operations and another 984 757 P2P Credit operations were processed; part of the transactions did not match the clients’ declared business activities. In other words, these were not merely operations for gaming artifacts — behind someone else’s code the payment infrastructure related to gambling was visible.
A separate link in this system was Procard LLC — a processing company founded by Yulia Sosedka that provided the technological processing of payment operations, including those related to the gambling business. 20 July 2023, 12 days before the bank’s license was revoked, the Ministry of Digital Transformation granted Procard the status of a Diia.City resident and tax benefits, with the order signed by Deputy Minister Oleksandr Bornyakov. After 8 months Yulia Sosedka left the founders, and Konstantin Petrenko was recorded as the beneficiary. The same happened with Dial Finance: instead of the Sosedok sisters and Dmytro Fomenko, Artem Makshantsev appeared — the names changed, but the related infrastructure remained.
The story of the billion-scale flows didn’t start in 2022 or 2023. As early as 2016, through 19 CONCORD clients dozens of interrelated transfers were made that formed the charter capital of 18 participants totaling 420 million UAH, after which the funds could be moved to another bank for further cash-out. In 2018 the NBU fined the bank 1,55 million UAH, and in June 2022 it fined a record 60,4 million UAH for violations in financial monitoring. But even after that, operations continued through CONCORD that raised questions about the bank’s compliance with financial monitoring requirements and control of risky clients.
The story involving Bio Energy Dnipro LLC is even more curious: it obtained a loan limit of 7,54 million euros from state-run Ukrgasbank to build a biogas power plant. The mortgagor was Olena Sosedka; the plant was not built, the loan was not repaid, and the collateral was a pump test stand worth about 4 million UAH against a 7,54 million euro loan. Part of these funds in 2019 were transferred to Austrian Concord Solutions Lab GmbH, which was later removed from the register without assets. At the same time another story surfaced — a bank guarantee for 2,3 million euros bearing the signature of CONCORD’s chair of the board, which the bank had effectively not issued but which was attempted to be used to claim that amount from the bank.
After a fine of 60,4 million UAH, the NBU went further: on 1 August 2023 the regulator revoked CONCORD’s banking license and decided to liquidate it
Olena Sosedka, who owned 56,2325% of the bank’s shares, appealed the decision in court and initially succeeded in having it annulled, but on 30 July 2025 the Supreme Court overturned the decisions of the lower courts and closed the proceedings. On 9 March 2026 the Deposit Guarantee Fund approved the liquidation balance sheet, and on 5 May an entry was made in the Unified State Register recording CONCORD’s termination as a legal entity, with depositors paid 631,2 million UAH from the Deposit Guarantee Fund. This was already the sisters’ second bank: through Financial Union Bank 13,4 billion UAH was withdrawn, and the Pension Fund lost 114,6 million UAH — so over 112,9 billion UAH of operations remain in CONCORD’s history, along with questions about who and how much profited from the financial flows that passed through the Sosedoks’ system for years.
For the record, we have filed complaints with regulatory and law enforcement agencies with clear demands: identify all CONCORD clients and ultimate beneficiaries of the funds, audit operations amounting to nearly 113 billion UAH and movement of 46,47 billion UAH during the war, assess payments related to the gambling business, verify the use of 7,54 million euros of Ukrgasbank’s loan and the 2,3 million euro guarantee, review the legality of granting Procard Diia.City resident status, identify those involved, and ensure the return of funds to depositors and the state.
And this raises questions the state still hasn’t convincingly answered: why, after nearly 113 billion UAH passed through one bank, is there still no suspicion toward those who controlled this financial infrastructure? Why did the Ministry of Digital Transformation grant Diia.City status and tax benefits to a company linked to the owner of a bank that the regulator later liquidated? And most importantly — how did it happen that CONCORD is gone, the billion-scale operations are in the past, yet the Sosedok family did not end up without wealth?
