SOCHI, Oct 18 - Sberbank will seek a new buyer for its Ukrainian subsidiary bank since Belarus' Paritetbank was not acceptable for the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU), Sberbank first deputy head Lev Khasis told journalists on the sidelines of the Finopolis 2018 Forum in Sochi.

The NBU again refused to approve Paritetbank's application to buy Sberbank (Ukraine) in September.

"I think that we will have to look for a new buyer, because the NBU very clearly said that the buyer from Belarus is undesirable for them," Khasis said.
