Russian economists have criticized the recent actions of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation in the field of the payment market. About this today, December 7, writes TC "Banksta".
German Gref said that the Bank of Russia goes "beyond all red lines and buoys" and is "a threat to the country as a whole" by stopping the introduction of innovations by monopolizing biometric payments.
Fintech Partners Managing Partner Alexander Kalyakin supported Gref, noting that the actions of Sberbank set a high bar in innovation, while the Bank of Russia is trying to "strangle" them by making them available to the entire market.
Viktor Dostov, Chairman of the Council of the Association of Electronic Money Market Participants of the Bank of Russia, also agreed with the head of Sberbank. According to him, the main task of the state is to ensure equal competition, but now there is a noticeable lack of support for private players in the market and a preponderance towards the infrastructure of the Central Bank.
