KyivDetectives searched the National Bank and an employee’s home on Wednesday.
Anti-corruption agencies say the state-owned Sense Bank laundered bail money for former minister Herman Halushchenko.
A former Sense Bank board chairman told lawmakers Governor Andriy Pyshnyi recommended Vasyl Veselyi, a figure in the Midas tapes.
Pyshnyi denies recommending Veselyi, and the anti-corruption bureau says no one has been detained or notified of suspicion.
Ukrainian media reported in August that Zelensky had discussed dismissing Pyshnyi.
