The exchange programme of the Ukrainian national currency, the hryvnia, for Polish zlotys, launched by the National Bank of Poland (NBP) in cooperation with the National Bank of Ukraine, ends on September 9, the central bank has reported.
Poland's biggest bank by assets, PKO BP, has announced that from April 1, Ukrainians will be able to exchange their national currency, the hryvnia, for Polish zlotys at 100 branches.
Close to 1.5 million Ukrainian refugees have crossed the Polish border escaping the war in their country, creating additional pressure on banks as Ukrainians have rushed to exchange their national currency, the CEO of Poland's largest lender has said.
The European Union should create a fund enabling Ukrainian refugees to exchange a small amount of Ukrainian hryvnia (UAH) to euros, a former governor of Poland's largest bank has said.
