VisionFund Secures Financial License in Ukraine with Everlegal's Guidance

Everlegal has successfully advised VisionFund in establishing its presence in Ukraine, securing a financial company license that enables it to offer non-banking financial services such as loan provision and handling banking metals. This move comes against a backdrop of strengthened legislative and prudential regulations in Ukraine, which has witnessed the exit of many financial companies. In 2024, VisionFund Ukraine stands distinguished as one of only three newly licensed finance providers in the region. The Everlegal team was led by Managing Partner Yevheniy Deyneko and included several key partners and associates.
