The bill also proposes to provide customers of systemically important banks with the opportunity to submit reports to the police about fraudulent withdrawals through them.
The flow of electronic documents between the Central Bank, the Interior Ministry and credit institutions has already begun, thanks to which the function “sending a statement about a crime to the Interior Ministry” will appear in banking applications, independent expert Evgeny Karpov told Kommersant.
After receiving a statement from a customer about a fraudulent transaction, the credit institution must provide the police with account information, e-wallet details, phone numbers and metadata.
The measure will save the client’s time and will quickly provide the Interior Ministry with the necessary information, Karpov said. According to him, local police are now having difficulty investigating such cases and “are trying to return documents to citizens by any means.”
The Central Bank’s draft regulation also mentions cryptographic keys, but the document does not define where they should be stored or how they should be used, Daria Verestnikova, commercial director of software developer SafeTech, told Kommersant.
