The American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine presented the 2019 Thanksgiving Choice of the Business Community Award to the National Bank of Ukraine. The award was given for pursuing a credible monetary policy, continuing the cleaning-up of the banking sector, defending NBU independence and contributing to macroeconomic stability.

The business community also acknowledged Mr. Brian Bonner for delivering Ukraine’s news in English to global audiences through his dedicated service as Chief Editor of the Kyiv Post.

“On behalf of the business community, I would like to congratulate the National Bank of Ukraine and Chief Editor of the Kyiv Post Brian Bonner with these well-deserved awards. A strong and independent central bank, as well as free and independent media, play a key role in Ukraine’s macroeconomic stability as they are a powerful signal of trust for foreign investors. Also, I express my sincere gratitude to members, Board of Directors, U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, Ukrainian state authorities and international partners for everything they do for business and Ukraine, making a difference and changing people’s life for better", commented Andy Hunder, President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine.
