KIEV, July 7 – The recapitalization of three Ukrainian banks – Bank Kyiv, Rodovid Bank and Ukrgasbank - will be completed by the end of the week, allowing people to access 2 billion hryvnias in deposits, a central bank official said.

“We've virtually completed work at three of the banks, and by the end of the week, the state is to enter Bank Kyiv, Rodovid Bank and Ukrgasbank and become their almost 100% owner," Anatoliy Shapovalov, an acting Governor of the National Bank of Ukraine, said.
