This notification of the National Bank of Ukraine establishes the official accounting prices for bank metals (gold, silver, platinum, and palladium) as of June 15, 2026. These figures are calculated per one troy ounce of each metal and serve as a reference for the market. It is important to understand that these prices do not constitute an obligation of the NBU to perform purchase or sale transactions of metals at the indicated rates.<\/p>\n
**Structure and Content:**
\nThe document takes the form of an official notification containing a table with metal codes (digital and alphabetical), their names, and the corresponding value in hryvnia. Compared to previous similar notifications, the structure remains unchanged, as this is a regular instrument for informing the market about changes in quotations. The main function of the document is to record the market value of assets on a specific date for accounting and analytical purposes.<\/p>\n
**Key Provisions:**
\n1. **Price Fixing:** Clear accounting prices have been established for four types of metals: gold (188,666.83 UAH), silver (3,013.13 UAH), platinum (77,102.73 UAH), and palladium (58,620.82 UAH).
\n2. **Unit of Measurement:** The calculation is performed for a standard unit \u2014 one troy ounce.
\n3. **Absence of Obligations:** A key legal caveat is that the NBU does not guarantee the execution of transactions at these prices, which precludes the possibility of using this notification as an offer for the purchase or sale of metals directly with the regulator.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This notification of the National Bank of Ukraine is an official publication of the foreign currency exchange rates against the hryvnia established by the regulator as of June 15, 2026.

The structure of the document is presented in the form of a table containing digital and alphabetical currency codes, the number of units of foreign currency, their names, and the corresponding official exchange rate against the hryvnia. This is a standard NBU reporting form based on the methodology for calculating the official exchange rate, which is regularly updated in accordance with the dynamics of the interbank foreign exchange market.

\n1. **Functional Purpose:** The rate is for reference and accounting purposes, not market purposes.for commercial operations.
\n2. **Object of application:** The data are used for recording transactions in accounting and settlements with state authorities.
