The National Bank of Ukraine has revoked the license of Light Finance LLC due to repeated failure to submit reports and ignoring the regulator's requirements. The decision was made on December 15 by the Committee on Supervision and Regulation of Non-Bank Financial Services Markets. This was reported by NBU.

A sanction was imposed on the company due to a systemic violation of the National Bank's requirements. The financial institution failed to submit information, explanations, and documents to the regulator within the established timeframe, as well as reports for September 2025 and for the nine months of 2025.

This is the second similar violation within one year. Previously, on October 20, 2025, the NBU applied enforcement measures to Light Finance for failing to submit reports for August 2025 and ignoring the regulator's requirements. The company was given until November 10 to rectify the violations, but it failed to comply.

In addition, the National Bank applied enforcement measures to Svarog Finance FC LLC. This company received a requirement to eliminate the identified violations by January 5, 2026.

As of October 1, 2025, Svarog Finance violated the prudential requirement regarding compliance with the leverage ratio. The company is obliged to bring its activities into compliance with the requirements of Ukrainian legislation within the established timeframe.

For data according to Opendatabot, the ultimate beneficial owner of FC Svarog Finance LLC is Vladyslav Futkov. He is also the founder of the company and owns 100% of its authorized capital. The head of the financial company is Oleksandra Mykhailova.

According to the law, NBU decisions take effect from the date they are communicated to institutions – either by mail or email.
