VEON Ltd. (VEON, Financial) has reached a pivotal milestone by publicly filing a Form F-4 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), marking a significant step forward in listing its subsidiary, Kyivstar Group, on Nasdaq. This process follows a planned business combination with Cohen Circle Acquisition Corp. I (CCIR), expected to finalize in the third quarter of 2025.
Upon completion of this transaction, Kyivstar Group will list its common shares and warrants on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols "KYIV" and "KYIVW," respectively. This development positions Kyivstar Group as the first and only pure-play Ukrainian investment opportunity available on U.S. stock markets, opening direct access for global investors to engage with Ukraine's economic landscape through its leading digital operator, JSC Kyivstar.
The strategic timing of this listing aligns with Ukraine's growing digital infrastructure sector, playing a critical role in the nation's economic stability. VEON's commitment to executing this listing amid geopolitical challenges reflects confidence in Kyivstar Group's operations and governance.
The successful completion of this transaction is contingent upon the approval of Cohen Circle's shareholders and other customary closing conditions. This initiative represents a unique opportunity for investors seeking to capitalize on the growth and resilience of Ukraine's digital economy through a regulated U.S. exchange.
