Аннотация. Полномочия по вынесению решений об отказе в заключении договора банковского счета (вклада), по отказу в выполнении распоряжения о совершении банковской операции (далее-«отказные решения»), а также по расторжению договоров банковского счета (вклада) предоставлены кредитным организациям Федеральным законом от 07.08.2001 № 115-ФЗ. Неопределенность критериев для вынесения отказных решений и строгая ответственность за нарушение требований законодательства о ПОД/ФТ приводит к вынесению отказных решений в массовом порядке, обилию судебных споров о законности и обоснованности их вынесения, дестабилизирует рынок банковских услуг. В статье рассматриваются проблемы, связанные с реализацией отказных решений кредитными организациями, а также подвергается анализу новейший законопроект № 948530-7, направленный на совершенствование существующего правового регулирования по данному вопросу. Ключевые слова: кредитная организация, банковский счет и вклад, противодействие отмыванию денег и финансированию терроризма, внутренний контроль, ответственность.

Background/Objectives. The article is devoted to the principles of law governing the organization of judicial proceedings in international law. There are a number of principles of justice, such as the rule of law, the independence of judges, the reasonable period of proceedings, counterclaim, publicity, and others. This article covers not all, but some of them, which, in the authors' opinion, are the most publicly significant in the administration of justice. The most widely considered is the well-known principle of legality, which includes several aspects, including the prohibition of retroactive application of the law and the prohibition of the analogy of law. This article also emphasizes the importance of making a list of principles of justice. Methods. The main method of research is comparative analysis. Other scientific methods were also used in the study, such as: interdisciplinary synthesis, logical method, analogy method, specification, classification, and systematization. Conclusions. Among the general principles of law, there are some special provisions relating to justice. Such principles are applied in judicial proceedings at both the national and international levels of justice. A complete list of such principles has not yet been made. This study emphasizes the need to define and classify the principles of justice. In the context of the general nature of this study, it is understood that some of the issues raised in the article may be the subject of further research. In the absence of legal norms, the results of the study of the principles of justice applicable in international law could be very useful, especially for judges.

The sustainable Development agenda has long been a stable trend in the global economy. Russia has been included in this global theme for a long time. Legislation, regulations and recommendation documents were being developed in the country, special tools were being created, primarily in the banking sector. At the same time, the CODID-19 pandemic and the wave of sanctions pressure thatfollowed it raised the question of the expediency of further development of the ESG agenda in Russia. The article discusses the features of the legal regulation of ESG banking under the conditions of sanctions pressure. It is noted that the sustainable development agenda remains relevant in Russia, but is currently focused more on solving internal problems. The most important areas of ESG banking are: the development of universal terminology and a system of legal categories, taxonomy, ESG reporting, ratings, features of accounting for ESG factors in lending and financing procedures, as well as corporate governance and compliance control.Proposals are formulated to improve the regulatory and legal regulation of ESG banking in Russia.
