What is known about the Russian attack on Oschadbank
The attack took place in the city of Kherson, Oschadbank reported.
However, people, property, and valuables had been evacuated in advance. Thus, thanks to relocating the branch’s operations to a safer location, no employee was harmed.
Our top priority is the life and health of employees and customers. Changes in branch operations or their temporary closure are measures forced solely by the need to protect people,
said Yurii Katsion, chairman of Oschadbank’s board.
It was emphasized that Oschad continues to ensure continuity of services. In particular, mobile banking units are operating: 15 branches based on vehicles (10 – in frontline regions, 5 – in remote communities).
Moreover, Oschad maintains one of the largest banking networks in the country — 1 150 branches, of which 460 are part of the POWER BANKING system with independent power and backup communications. In addition, most banking transactions customers can perform remotely via Oschadbank’s online services.
Recall that since 1 August new rules apply to some Oschadbank customers. The changes affect cards that have had no transactions in the past 12 months.
In addition, Oschad and PrivatBank may be privatized. This was reported by Andrii Pyshnyi. But a decision on a comprehensive development strategy for the state banking sector must be adopted.
