Moscow sets the global trend in urban transport.

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

During a press conference held on July 7, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov gave detailed answers to key questions regarding the development of urban transport.

Large-scale metro update:

The share of updated rolling stock in the Moscow metro has reached 77% This year, 144 Moskva-2024 cars were delivered, and another 128 are expected by the end of the year In 2026–2027, the fleet will be replenished with more than 700 new Moskva-2026 cars By 2030, the share of new trains will exceed 90%

Industrial growth and innovation:

Moscow is the largest industrial and scientific center of Russia, where more than 4.5 thousand enterprises operate. Over five years, clothing production has grown by 58.3 times, machinery and equipment – by 7.5 times, electronics and optics – by 5.4 times. The industrial production index for January-May 2025 increased by 6% compared to last year.

Unmanned technologies and safety:

In 2025, the first driverless tram with passengers in Russia will start operating; by 2035, the entire tram fleet will be driverless. The Sfera video analytics system is being introduced in the metro, which has already helped find 17,000 criminals and 2,000 missing people, including children.

Regular river transport:

In two years of regular river routes, Moscow has become a world leader: no other megacity has an analog of such an electric transport system. During its operation, more than 2 million passengers have used river transport, which has significantly exceeded the city's expectations. Three routes and 29 electric vessels are already operating in the capital, and by 2030 the fleet will increase to 60 vessels and four more new routes will appear. The recently opened Novospassky-ZIL route has already made about 15 thousand trips.

The new future of the monorail – a park at altitude:

More than 71% of Muscovites supported the creation of the first year-round park in Russia on the site of a monorail. The new park with an area of 40 thousand square meters will connect five districts and will become a new city landmark with running tracks, alleys, cafes and recreation areas. Some of the monorail cars will be preserved as a historical monument, and employees will receive new jobs in the metro.

Major infrastructure projects:

In 2026, the reconstruction of Yaroslavsky Station will begin, designed for 2.5 years, with an increase in passenger space and integration into the city's transport system. The first cluster in Russia for the production of batteries for electric transport is being built in New Moscow, which will cover almost all the needs of the Central Federal District.

Development of micromobility:

There are about 350 "slow zones" for electric scooters in Moscow, where the speed is limited to 5-15 km/h. In 3.5 months, users have made more than 32 million trips on electric scooters, while the number of serious accidents has decreased by 25% due to comprehensive safety measures. Mandatory verification via Mos ID has been introduced, which has allowed 32 thousand accounts of minors to be blocked. During the season, 39 thousand fines were issued and 46 thousand accounts of violators were blocked.

Financial news: Volunteers will teach how to check information and will identify unfair practices of financial organizations

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Volunteers will teach people how to navigate the information space in order to distinguish fraudsters' tricks from current offers in the financial sector. They will also help financial institutions better understand the problems of clients with different types of disabilities and identify unfair practices in the market. Such priorities were identified by participants of the XI All-Russian Congress of Financial Education Volunteers.

The Congress traditionally brings together volunteers from all over the country and serves as a platform for exchanging experiences, developing and scaling initiatives, identifying modern trends and promising areas for promoting financial literacy.

Most of the initiatives presented at the congress are designed for adults. The emphasis is on a targeted approach, the ability to adapt an idea to the needs of the target audience. For example, volunteers conduct classes on family budget management with newlyweds, where they teach how to find a compromise in delicate financial matters. Financial activists also help organize training and employment for young people with disabilities, tell military personnel how to resist fraudsters, and explain the peculiarities of Russian financial legislation to residents of new regions.

"Teaching adults is not easy: everyone has their own life experience, education, priorities. Not everyone is ready to learn just because someone said it is important and necessary. But people are happy to learn when they are given knowledge at the right time and in a convenient form. Therefore, flexibility and a variety of formats are very important, and this is exactly what we are learning from you, from financial education volunteers," said Elvira Nabiullina, Chairman of the Bank of Russia.

Today, the register of financial education volunteers already includes 19 thousand activists: students, professional financiers, employees of educational institutions, public organizations, and commercial companies.

Financial News: Five principles for artificial intelligence: regulator's recommendations on the use of AI

For example, customers should be informed when they are interacting with AI and provided with the opportunity to opt out of such interactions.

The Bank of Russia also suggests that organizations regularly check the quality of AI, pay attention to maintaining the confidentiality of personal data, and organize AI risk management.

“We have studied global trends in AI regulation, discussed with market participants and came to the conclusion that for the Russian financial market at this stage, soft regulation of the use of such technology will be relevant. We hope that the guidelines laid down in the Code of Ethics will be able to make financial services, in which artificial intelligence is integrated, even more high-quality, safe and convenient,” said Stanislav Korop, Head of the Department of Financial Technologies.

In addition, according to the Bank of Russia, the exchange of experience and best practices in compliance with ethical recommendations can play a special role in the trusted and responsible use of AI in the financial market. The regulator is ready to facilitate this.
