The aim of the article is to characterize the real stage of realization of asset operations of the Ukrainian banks on the current stage of banking system development. For this aim the analysis of the Ukrainian banks activities within the period of 2011-2016 year is made. The official statistical data of the National Bank of Ukraine on asset operations of the Ukrainian banks and indicators of economic norms of banking were used. Thus, the current stage of credit operations realization by the banks of Ukraine, credit risk of the Ukrainian banks, and investment operations of the banks of Ukraine and the level of their investment risk were researched.

It has been elicited that the most numerous operations among all of the asset operations of the Ukrainian banks throughout the study period were credit operations, the volume of which, regardless of the decrease in 2013 and 2016, had a clear tendency for increase. It has been calculated that within the study period the share of loans to business entities was continuously increasing, while the share of loans to private individuals was continuously decreasing, which led to the significant change in the proportions between these two groups of loans. It has been substantiated that the whole banking system was implementing the regulatory standards of credit risk set by the National Bank of Ukraine throughout the whole study period, which signifies that the credit activity of the Ukrainian banks was being conducted in the regulatory framework set by the authorities.

Investment operations of the Ukrainian banks in the period of 2011-2016 constituted the second largest group among all of the asset operations. It has been determined that their volume increased significantly within the study period and as a result their share in the general volume of asset operation of the Ukrainian banks increased as well, which signifies a certain diversification of asset operations of the Ukrainian banks.
