OTP Bank joined the initiative to replace the symbols on the shield of the “Motherland” monument

OTP Bank joined the initiative to replace the emblem of the USSR with the state coat of arms of Ukraine - a trident - on the shield of the "Motherland" monument in Kyiv. In particular, a transfer of UAH 1 million was made to the NGO’s "Cultural Sustainability Agency" account.

"Soviet symbols have no place in sovereign Ukraine. Therefore, the OTP Bank team supports the initiative to replace the emblem of the USSR with a trident, as do those Ukrainians who voted for this project in the Diya application. It will be a symbolic, historical event of national significance. We are very proud to have contributed financially to the project!" commented Lesya Syrota, OTP Bank's director of retail business sales and team leader of the OTP Bank Helps Ukraine charity project.
