OREANDA-NEWS. February 14, 2011. Dragon Capital, Ukraine’s #1 investment bank, hosted an open seminar on stock market investment opportunities for individuals in Donetsk. This seminar was jointly organized with the Ukrainian Stock Exchange. The event gathered over 70 people with diverse backgrounds ranging from finance and IT to medicine, law and real estate.

“We were pleased to see so much local interest and have this level of attendance,” said Valentyn Kovbasyuk, Head of the Online Trading Department at Dragon Capital. “While the number of individual traders has grown substantially over the past few years, the supply of quality brokerage services is still concentrated in Kyiv. Based on the feedback we received during the seminar, there is an apparent need for more information on the stock market and investing opportunities for Ukrainian citizens.”

“Online trading is an exciting way to diversify and increase personal income, and this opportunity is not linked to any specific geographic location. However, in order for individual investors to succeed, it is essential that their broker provides quality research & professional advice, diverse educational & training programs, reliable technology and superior customer support. Since Dragon Capital meets these requirements providing clients with top quality service we plan to successfully expand in Ukraine’s major regional markets,” said Andriy Dmytrenko, Managing Director of Retail Business Development at Dragon Capital.
