She fled from the Russians and ended up in Anif (Salzburg). Svitlana Liulko has now become self-employed and opened a tailor’s shop – now there are problems with her bank.
I want to work, be self-employed and not be dependent on social security.” When war broke out in Ukraine, Svitlana Liulko left her home country and has now settled in Anif. In May, the Ukrainian opened a tailor’s shop in the community of Flachgau. The business gets going, but suddenly there are problems with the Ukrainian bank.
“Suddenly I can no longer deposit cash into my account, but how else am I supposed to do that with the income from my business,” Liulko no longer knows. The Raiffeisenbank explained to her that they could not know where the money came from. “It could also be black money,” she apparently heard. She would have to open a business account so that cash deposits would be possible again. “I feel intimidated,” the Ukrainian emphasizes.
The Raiffeisenbank itself, in response to a “Krone” investigation into the Svitlana Liulko case, emphasized: “Due to her self-employment, her supervisor advised her on the issue of the ‘business account’, as she used a current account until now. There was a legal obligation to provide proof of cash income from self-employment. And: “The bank manager has fulfilled his duty of care.”
