KIEV, Feb. 7 – Banks with Russian capital in Ukraine have been restricted in activity and are operating under supervision of a curator and looking for a buyer, Deputy National Bank of Ukraine Governor Kateryna Rozhkova said at a press conference in Kiev on Tuesday.

She recalled that at present five banks with Russian capital are operating on the Ukrainian market.

"There are two ways for them – to find a new owner or gradually reduce their presence on the market," she said, adding that the NBU wants them to leave the market without pain.
