Euromoney Names Dragon Capital Best Equities House in Ukraine
Kyiv, July 8, 2005 – International financial magazine Euromoney has named the Kyiv-based investment bank Dragon Capital the Best Equities House in Ukraine in its global release of the 2005 Awards for Excellence rankings.
This is the third time since the 1998 regional financial crisis that the London-based publication selected nominees for the best Ukrainian equities house, and each of the three times - in 2002, 2004 and 2005 - Dragon Capital was recognized as the winner. In other Ukraine categories, Privatbank won Euromoney’s 2005 award for the Best Bank and ABN Amro was named the Best Debt House.
"Dragon Capital had a great year as foreign investors put millions of dollars into the Ukrainian stock exchange both before and especially after the Orange Revolution," Euromoney said in its annual Awards for Excellence edition. "It is the brokerage best positioned to take advantage of the opening up of the Ukrainian capital markets to increased foreign investment. Its research is respected, and its index, KP-Dragon, is the benchmark for the market," Euromoney noted.
Tomas Fiala, Dragon Capital’s Managing Director, commented: "The new Euromoney accolade is a highly rewarding acknowledgement of our superior performance and resolute efforts to promote world-class financial services in Ukraine. As Ukraine is moving to become a top investment destination in Europe, we are ready to stand the challenge of remaining leaders in the increasingly competitive local environment."
