Kyivstar Makes Debut on Nasdaq: A Milestone for Ukrainian Business

15 August 2025

On August 15, 2025, Kyivstar Group Ltd. officially began trading on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the ticker KYIV.

This was confirmed in a release from VEON, highlighting a major development for Ukrainian enterprises.

Kyivstar is the first company entirely focused on Ukraine to gain access to this trading platform.

It is noted that 89.6% of the company's shares are still owned by the international telecommunications group VEON.

Alexandr Komarov, president of Kyivstar, stated that the Nasdaq listing is a landmark event for the entire Ukrainian business community and a testament to the country's investment attractiveness.

It is worth mentioning that the shareholders of the American SPAC company Cohen Circle Acquisition Corp. approved the merger agreement with Kyivstar Group Ltd. during an extraordinary meeting on August 12, paving the way for the Ukrainian operator's entry into the Nasdaq.
