The ranking will include the availability of banking products both for citizens and for micro, small, and medium-sized business entities.

The assessment plans to take into account not only the ability to receive services, but also the convenience, security, and quality of their provision.

On October 30, 2026, the Central Bank held a discussion on the ranking methodology, assessment criteria, and preliminary calculation results with the participation of commercial bank representatives.

Meeting participants reviewed the data used to calculate the ranking indicators, assessed its reliability, and discussed opportunities for further improvement of the methodology.
