Norwegian shipbuilding company Ulstein Hull As proved to be the customer in both cases. “The factors that contributed to the Bank’s taking a positive decision on the cooperation were Zaliv’s order portfolio increase, its considerable experience on the shipbuilding market, positive dynamics of the production volumes and its positive credit history,” shared Oleksandr Adarich, Chairman of the Management Board of JSCIB “UkrSibbank”. “During the time of our cooperation shipbuilding company “Zaliv” proved its being a reliable partner.” Mykola Kuzmenko, Chairman of “Zaliv” Supervisory Board said in his turn: “Fist stages of cooperation usually see a great number of difficulties but in view of our mutual cooperation with JSCIB “UkrSibbank” this statement turned out not being a universal truth.
