The media told how the Central Bank of the Russian Federation will control all money transfers of Russians from January 1

The regulator will start requesting data from banks on all money transfers between individuals.

The Russian financial regulator has sent banks a new form of reporting on citizens’ money transfers.

According to the updated documents, the Bank of Russia will request information about all transfers between individuals, including the personal data of the sender and recipient.

According to experts, such a measure is necessary to combat illegal online casinos, crypto exchanges and businesses accepting payments on personal cards.

RBC writes about this with reference to three sources in the payment market.

As Oleg Mashtalyar, deputy head of the Board of Sovcombank, told the publication, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation will begin such monitoring as early as January 1, 2022.

The main purpose of the innovation will be to optimize the data provided by banks, as well as to obtain up-to-date information about payments.

The information will be used for market analysis.

According to the explanations, the reporting will include all incoming and outgoing transfers between individuals:

  • from card to card;
  • from account to account;
  • from an electronic wallet to an electronic wallet, from a card to a wallet and back;
  • from the subscriber’s account of the telecom operator to the wallet or card and back;
  • payments via the Fast Payment System;
  • cross-border transfers by individuals;
  • money transfers without opening an account, including through payment terminals;
  • transfers of an individual between their own accounts in one bank;
  • transfers via money transfer systems, for example Western Union, CONTACT.

Requests will be generated for all transfers for a certain time period.

In some cases, the regulator will be able to receive information on specific operations.

The Central Bank of the Russian Federation notes that for 9 months of the outgoing year, Russians transferred approximately 42.5 trillion rubles to each other by cards. About 8.5 billion transactions were made.

Sberbank is most present on the market in this regard, through which more than 0.8 billion transfers worth 4.7 trillion rubles have been made since the beginning of 2021.

According to experts, such monitoring by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation is aimed, among other things, at tracking suspicious transactions, which include:

  • An unusually large number of individuals as both payers and recipients of funds (more than 10 per day and more than 50 per month).
  • An unusually large number of operations for crediting and debiting funds (more than 30 operations per day).
  • Significant volumes of operations for debiting and crediting funds between individuals (more than 100 thousand rubles per day, more than 1 million rubles per month).
  • The card or wallet is not used to pay for goods or services.

Earlier, topNews wrote that the tax service began tracking data on the accounts of Russians.

According to experts, innovations will hit the pockets of self-employed citizens.

Experts: The European Union groundlessly demands 290 billion euros from Russia, accusing Moscow of import substitution

Experts: The European Union groundlessly demands 290 billion euros from Russia, accusing Moscow of import substitution

Economist Leonid Khazanov reminded opponents of WTO rules.

Russian experts reject the accusations previously made by the European Union. The latter appealed to the WTO with a claim for 290 billion euros, accusing Moscow of “discrimination” against European goods.

The method of such “violence ” was called import substitution for the same amount.

In response, a number of Russian economists remind that the Russian program to replace imports with domestic products does not contradict the rules of world trade.

As an independent expert Leonid Khazanov explained in an interview with Izvestia, the approach used by domestic economists is almost equal to what is practiced in the USA, China and the EU itself.

He explained that all these countries are trying to increase the share of national products in the overall structure of industry.

This is done through a variety of methods.

“Starting from the introduction of trade barriers and ending with the organization of procurement for strategic industries by forming their conditions for their manufacturers,” the expert said.

Khazanov believes that the norms adopted by the World Trade Organization do not prohibit its members, including the Russian Federation, from helping automakers to assemble locally in the regions, changing this condition to tax preferences.

Thus, it is impossible to blame Russia for imposing and forcibly localizing production.

The publication also recalled the words of the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maria Zakharova, who called import substitution a response to Western sanctions.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that, according to a number of media outlets, Russia has failed the food import substitution program.

The media learned about the unexpected consequences of the reversal of US LNG tankers from Asia to Europe

The media learned about the unexpected consequences of the reversal of US LNG tankers from Asia to Europe

The situation with the tankers was ridiculed by the presenter of Channel One, Artem Sheinin.

The other day, the Western press began to actively write that the United States will save Europe from the gas crisis.

The reason for such joy was the reversal of American LNG tankers from Asia to Europe, to which the market immediately responded with a drop in gas prices. However, after a few hours, prices went up again.

According to the media, the EU violently greeted the news about the reversal of tankers, and the press attacked Gazprom with accusations of another round of price increases against the background of the termination of supplies through the Polish pipe.

However, then it became clear that the morning drop in gas prices on the market was due to the reaction of investors to the reversal of American tankers.

Initially, this was regarded as a new trend in deliveries, but in fact it is not.

As stated by the deputy director of the Institute of National Energy Alexander Frolov, “the massive reversal of” tankers actually occurred in only two vessels.

In addition, he stressed that even with astronomical gas prices in Europe, American LNG will not be able to fully provide Europe.

Asian consumers, in turn, reinsured themselves by concluding long-term contracts so that what is now observed in Europe does not happen to them.

It is known that three-quarters of all LNG is supplied to Asia, and only the remnants can get into the EU, however, without having a significant impact on the energy situation there, Vzglyad reports.

The situation with the reversal of tankers and the reaction to it in Europe caused the ridicule of the presenter of Channel One Artem Sheinin.

He considered the situation absurd and said that the Europeans provoked their own fuel crisis by not wanting to sign long-term contracts with Gazprom. Now, according to the TV presenter, N. noted the absurdity of the situation.

“Okay, they bred Indians for beads. Why do they breed you like Indians?” – Chenini gave a historical example in the studio of the show “Time will tell ”.

To this, Czech expert Jiri Yust accused Moscow of disrupting gas supplies and said that the United States was allegedly trying to level the gas shortage in Europe.

However, in response to this, Shenin recalled how Putin called on Europe to sign long-term contracts, but since this did not happen, Europe’s gas storage facilities literally emptied.

Earlier, topNews wrote that Gazprom had suspended gas transit to Germany. The temporary suspension of supplies occurred on the Yamal-Europe gas pipeline.

German Chancellor Scholz explained the suspension of certification of Nord Stream-2

German Chancellor Scholz explained the suspension of certification of

Germany will not make decisions on Nord Stream 2 in the first half of 2022.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz commented on the suspension of certification of Nord Stream-2.

According to him, such a decision by the German authorities is of a non-political nature.

Scholz stressed that the pipeline is a commercial project implemented with the involvement of private investment, and the decision on it in Germany was not made on the basis of politics, writes TASS.

As the Chancellor stressed, such a procedure provides for a large number of consultations, and the process is still ongoing, writes TASS.

Bloomberg also writes with reference to the Federal Network Agency of Germany that in the first half of 2022 it is not expected to make a decision on the certification of “SP-2”.

The head of the agency, Jochen Homman, stressed that the regulator still does not have the necessary documents from the operator.

“It’s not in our hands”, – he said.

According to Homman, the certification process suspended in November can be resumed after the requirements are met.

So, we are talking about the creation by the operator of a separate company that will manage a section of the pipeline in Germany.

Against this background, Russia’s Permanent Representative to the EU, Vladimir Chizhov, considered the situation with the suspension of pipeline certification politicized.

He noted that we are talking about both the policy of the West and the internal German policy related to the change of government.

Recall that the certification was suspended on November 16. According to the plan, this process should be completed on January 8, 2022, but as a result, these deadlines have been postponed indefinitely.

Earlier, topNews wrote that Germany declared the impossibility of approving Nord Stream-2. The Polish Prime Minister promised not to allow the pipeline to be launched.
