The bank’s investor, NCH Capital, is one of the world’s largest investment operators in the agricultural sector. Through innovative approaches, sustainable farming, and efficient logistics, NCH provides food for millions of people across the globe. 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.
On July 16, 2015, NCH Capital’s subsidiary — Agro Holdings (Ukraine) Limited — signed an agreement to acquire PJSC Astra Bank, which had been registered in 2007 and declared insolvent in 2015. As a result, NCH Capital became the first and remains the only foreign investor in Ukraine to acquire an insolvent bank and successfully restore its operations.
In February 2016, the bank was renamed Agroprosperis Bank, and since then, it has been steadily developing as a reliable financial partner for the agricultural sector. Its establishment gave small Ukrainian grain producers real access to sufficient financial resources for the first time.
As early as 2017, the bank expanded its range of services by starting to accept deposits and offering services to individuals. Clients gained the opportunity to save with a foreign-owned bank that combines international reliability with attractive service conditions.
In December 2017, the Expert-Rating agency assigned Agroprosperis Bank a long-term credit rating at the investment level of uaAA, indicating very high creditworthiness, and the highest deposit reliability rating — ua1 on the national scale.
Gradually expanding its geographic presence, the bank began forming a branch network in 2019. Today, Agroprosperis Bank operates five service centers in Kyiv, as well as a branch in Vinnytsia and a branch in Lviv.
