Piraeus Bank has become a strategic partner of American University Kyiv (AUK), a leading international educational institution in Ukraine, by joining its Global Partnership Program. As part of this collaboration, the two institutions have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), setting out a shared commitment to foster the development of young talent, enhance educational quality, and support students in launching their professional careers. 

A core element of the partnership is the introduction of internship opportunities for AUK students at Piraeus Bank. These placements will offer aspiring professionals hands-on experience in an international banking environment, deepen their understanding of the financial sector, and provide meaningful opportunities to establish early professional networks. 

“Lasting success happens when business and education come together to create real opportunities for the next generation. At Piraeus Bank, we’re proud to support the future of Ukraine’s talent by partnering with American University Kyiv,” 
 — said Anna Zhuravliova, Head of Human Resources at Piraeus Bank. 

Beyond internships, the program will also offer mentoring from senior bank professionals, giving students valuable insights into the inner workings of the financial industry and helping them develop the practical skills needed to thrive in today’s market. 

This partnership represents a long-term investment in the country’s human capital and reaffirms Piraeus Bank’s dedication to supporting Ukraine’s educational and economic development. 

Together, we’re empowering a new generation of Ukrainian financial leaders — skilled, ambitious, and ready to meet the demands of a dynamic global economy.
