Daria Sofina, head of the licensing department at the National Bank of Ukraine, has officially denied reports that she left the country. She emphasised that she has not departed Ukraine and is currently present in the NBU's official building.
This statement emerged following a search of the office of regulator head Andrii Pyshnyi, which took place yesterday. Subsequently, versions began circulating in Telegram channels claiming that Sofina had resigned 48 hours before the search operations and fled abroad. The first source for this information was the publication UA.News by Alona Shevtsova. It is noted that this individual has a personal interest in the situation, as the department led by Sofina was involved in the liquidation process of IBox Bank.
Sofina confirmed that she did indeed submit a resignation letter on her own initiative. However, she did so 10 days before the searches. According to her, this was an exclusively personal decision, about which both the staff and the bank's board of directors were informed. The official processing of the dismissal was scheduled for the following week. The director also noted that no investigative actions are being conducted against her and that she does not have a procedural status.
Daria Sofina joined the National Bank team in December 2022 after Andrii Pyshnyi was appointed head, after which she was considered his protégée. Since December 2024, she has headed the licensing department, which is regarded as one of the regulator's most important and profitable units. According to her 2025 declaration, her salary amounted to 5.9 million UAH, and the purchase of a BMW X6 M car was also recorded.
