KYIV, May 24 – Ukrainian businessman Ihor Kolomoisky has proposed to sign an amicable agreement for PrivatBank (Kyiv) in exchange of around 25% of shares in the bank.

“The way out with PrivatBank is to return me my capital, not par, but shares. Return the shares! Count me my UAH 50-60 billion, give me some shares. It will be 24%, or 25.5% or 26%," Kolomoisky said in an interview with the Ukrayinska Pravda, noting that about 75% would remain in state ownership under such a scenario.
