KIEV, May 15 – The National Bank of Ukraine says it is mulling measures to ease monetary policy amid low inflation in order to boost the issue of loans by the country's banks.

"We're not satisfied with the level of credit exposure, i.e. with the growth of credits demonstrated by the banking system today. It's very low," said Olena Scherbakova, the director of the NBU's monetary and credit policy department, in a statement posted on the NBU's Web site.
