The bank’s investor, NCH Capital, is one of the world’s largest investment operators in the agricultural sector. In Ukraine, NCH Capital has built a successful agricultural enterprise under the Agroprosperis brand, cultivating 300,000 hectares of land and exporting over 3 million tonnes of grain annually.
To support and develop Ukraine’s agricultural sector, NCH Capital established Agroprosperis Bank in 2015 — a financial institution focused on financing small and medium-sized agricultural producers, a segment previously underserved by the banking system due to lack of collateral or credit history.
Thus, on July 16, 2015, NCH Capital’s subsidiary – Agro Holdings (Ukraine) Limited – entered into an agreement to acquire the insolvent Astra Bank. Thus, the American NCH became the first and still the only foreign investor in Ukraine to purchase a bank from the state and successfully restore its operations.
In February 2016, Agroprosperis Bank became the first in Ukraine to execute a financial agrarian receipt, and since then has provided small and medium-sized farmers with over UAH 1 billion secured by future harvests. In early 2024, the bank was among the first to begin providing investment loans for the purchase of agricultural land under the state program “Affordable Loans 5-7-9%,” opening new horizons of growth for farmers. In 2025, Agroprosperis Bank once again becomes an innovator: the first among banks to issue an agrarian note – a new digital instrument for raising funds secured by future harvests.
Since 2017, Agroprosperis Bank has been accepting deposits and developing services for individuals, offering clients the reliability of a bank with foreign capital combined with favorable service conditions. In 2019, the bank began building a branch network and today operates 5 service centers in Kyiv, a branch in Vinnytsia and a branch in Lviv.
In December 2017, the Rating Agency “Expert-Rating” assigned Agroprosperis Bank a long-term credit rating at the investment level of uaAA and the highest deposit reliability rating of ua1 on the national scale. In 2025, thanks to stable development and confident financial results, the long-term credit rating of Agroprosperis Bank was upgraded to the level of uaAAA on the national scale, which characterizes the highest creditworthiness.
