"We have been holding a criminal inquiry implicating Ukrainian National Bank executives and related to the embezzlement of funds assigned for refinancing a number of commercial financial institutions for the past few months," Sytnyk said in a program aired by the 1+1 channel on Sunday evening.

"The legality of spending of those funds and the involvement in their embezzlement are the subject matter of this inquiry... We are verifying the legality of spending of the refinancing funds and the involvement of National Bank executives in this process," he said.

Materials have been requested from a number of countries, as most refinancing funds were transferred to offshore or foreign bank accounts, Sytnyk said.

The damage may amount to billions of hryvnias, he said.

"Anyway, the transfers were so massive that they could not have passed unnoticed by the National Bank executives. Hence, we will be checking practically all executives for their possible involvement," he said.
