The discussion focused on the company’s use of government measures to support producers, new innovative projects of OrenKlip, issues of localization of production and personnel training.

From the transcript:

M. Mishustin: Dear Mikhail Georgievich!

Your company has been on the market for over 20 years. You produce high-tech equipment, equip entire production lines with technologies that are in great demand in our industry today.

It is important that you not only create new products, but also provide warranty and service services, so that consumers can receive both spare parts and machine tool adjustments, and this is very important in such a high-tech and complex industry as machine tool manufacturing.

The President noted that it is necessary to support manufacturers. And the Government helps such companies using a whole range of tools. First of all, this is the Industrial Development Fund, preferential loans, preferential subsidies that you received. Such popular support measures as Rosagroleasing programs for purchasing Russian equipment were also, I know, used by your enterprise.

How much have these mechanisms helped you? And a few words about your enterprise in general.

Founder of the company "OrenKlip" Mikhail Ivanov.

M. Ivanov: Dear Mikhail Vladimirovich, thank you for paying close attention not only to machine tool building in general, but also to the food engineering industry in particular. Thanks to government support, the industry is experiencing a real renaissance today.

The OrenKlip Group of Companies manufactures equipment for the production of sausages and all types of semi-finished products. We also manufacture related equipment for freezing and wastewater treatment.

This year our company turned 20 years old. We have a staff of slightly more than 300 people, taking into account the new site introduced in the Orenburg region. The production base is equipped with a modern machine park with a high share of domestic equipment. In our production, it exceeds 65%, and if you look at the turning/milling group, which we use to produce food equipment, it is about 90%. Machines for laser cutting, cutting, laser welding, laser cleaning – all 100% of the machines at both sites are produced by Unimash, Morsvyazavtomatika, the city of St. Petersburg, our good long-standing partner. The turning/milling group at our enterprise is also represented by machines from Stankomashkompleks, the city of Tver. We have no other machines.

We started with purchasing machines localized in the Russian Federation, in Ulyanovsk. DMG was there before, and after DMG left, we work entirely with Stankomashkompleks. We also have machines specifically for the production of particularly complex technological products. These are machines manufactured in the Orenburg Region – the South Ural Mechanical Plant, the city of Kuvandyk. This is especially gratifying. We are also now putting into operation a new metal heat treatment shop. Here we will have equipment from Intercelt, the city of St. Petersburg. And the list can go on for quite a long time. We have a lot of domestic developments. We strive to produce domestic food equipment on Russian-made machines, using domestically produced raw materials and Russian consumables and components. And I think that we will come very close to this goal with the commissioning of the Russian Stainless Company plant this year. The main raw material for our production will be cold-rolled stainless steel up to 3 mm. This is what is needed in the food and many other industries.

Today we have another achievement – this year we opened an automation and robotics plant in the territory of the special economic zone "Orenburg", the plant began work in early January of this year with a metalworking shop. On June 10 of this year we launched the full cycle.

We also use quite broad support measures. We work closely with the FRP. The first support measures of the regional industrial development fund helped us to establish the initial production of components for high-speed thermoforming machines for packaging sausages.

We implemented the second support measure – a loan of 126 million – to increase the number of spare parts produced and to localize the production of high-speed thermoforming machines more.

The next stage of development was the construction of a site for the production of these high-speed thermoforming machines. At the food engineering forum, we announced a preferential leasing program for Russian manufacturers of food equipment in 2023. And the first machine produced by the automation and robotics plant – a high-speed thermoforming machine – is under the preferential leasing program.

M. Mishustin: For the success of the projects that you are planning within the industrial technology park, including high-tech processes, competent personnel are, of course, necessary. We are actively working on the instructions of the head of state to form a single, integrated system of personnel training. From the school bench, when entire engineering classes are created or classes by specialty. Then – professionalism. Moreover, clustering, professionalism is carried out jointly with companies like yours, which can already look in advance, select the guys needed for production, and participate in the methodology of the educational process. And ending with higher education institutions, institutes, universities. You know about our advanced engineering schools, about the Strategy-2030 program. This is very important.

Do you use programs related to professionalism and advanced engineering schools to attract young personnel? Because it is very important for young people to adapt to new industries. Do you participate in such programs?

M. Ivanov: Yes, we participate in the "Professionality" program. We cooperate with four colleges in Orenburg. This is the College of Computer Science. Our entire group of young IT specialists are college graduates, and this is the first or second year. When there was a shortage of personnel in the IT industry, we simply attracted students from this college. And we did very well. This is the Humanities and Technical College. This is also the college of Orenburg State University.

M. Mishustin: What about universities?

M. Ivanov: We cooperate with the university, which also makes us happy. Alma mater is Orenburg State University. This year, as anchor partners of Orenburg State University, we will participate in submitting an application for an advanced engineering school. Orenburg State University also has a “road map” for development, robotics and automation, and, accordingly, special personnel are being trained for this program – we are also actively participating in this, we have several partner programs in this area.

M. Mishustin: It is obvious that this year the market volume of the products you deal with has grown significantly – by about a third. This is primarily equipment for the food and processing industry. This is, of course, largely due to the achievements of our agricultural industry as a whole. There is growth in both key industries, including livestock farming and meat processing, and in other promising ones.

This means that demand for your products is growing – these are modern machines, equipment lines. Moreover, the tasks of developing our own production in this sector have not yet been solved. For now, the share of domestic equipment on the domestic market is slightly more than half.

What interesting and new things can you offer to the agricultural industry? What innovative developments are you going to implement in your production?

M. Ivanov: Among our modern and interesting projects is a joint project with Vkusno i Tochka and the Cherkizovo group of companies, this is the production of high-performance production lines for the well-known nuggets, fully prepared products.

M. Mishustin: What localization?

M. Ivanov: Localization, I think, 90%.

M. Mishustin: Great.

M. Ivanov: Our company is already making lines with a capacity of 2.5-3.5 tons per hour for our major client, Abi Product – Myasnaya Galereya (Vladimir). And together with Vkusno i Tochka and Cherkizovo, we want to make a line with a capacity of 5 tons per hour. Only three companies in the world make such lines today. We want to be among them.

Another promising development we have is robotization of all types of processes. This is robotization of cutting lamb, robotization on the cutting line for cattle and pigs, robotization of the stacking of finished sausage products (sausages, sausages, etc.), as well as end processes. We pay great attention to this issue.

M. Mishustin: I visited one of the enterprises when we were in the Caucasus – “Damate”. And its director, Naum Aleksandrovich (Babaev), who showed me the entire production system, spoke about the demand for domestic equipment and promised (this was several years ago) to place as many orders as possible specifically for domestic equipment.

When do you think we will be able to assemble the necessary equipment for such enterprises entirely from domestic technological means – both machine tools and other equipment?

M. Ivanov: Mikhail Vladimirovich, today, I believe, we are ready. I am talking not only about my enterprise, but also about the pool of enterprises that has formed in Russia. We are ready. We only need projects.

M. Mishustin: And demand, right? That is, demand needs to be generated.

M. Ivanov: Demand is needed. And Naum Aleksandrovich, to his credit, is a pioneer in this matter.

M. Mishustin: Do you know each other?

M. Ivanov: Yes. The plant in Cherkessk, which you visited.

M. Mishustin: Is your equipment there?

M. Ivanov: 100% of the plant was supplied by us. And the level of localization there is quite high.

Several years ago, quite a long time ago, the overall level of localization was about 30%. But, for example, the lamination line, the largest in Eurasia, is already 95% localized. And such a section as the boning line is also 90% of Russian production.

M. Mishustin: It seems to me, Mikhail Georgievich, that this is very important, right step by step. It all starts with the little things. I always say: from some cutting table to a panel – we must try to produce everything in the Russian Federation. After all, we have a huge number of talented technologists, engineers, designers. Technological and industrial sovereignty in any industry, especially in industries like yours, is simply necessary for us.

I would like to wish you and your company good luck and success.

An important rejection of responsibility is at the bottom of this article.

Enterprises of small and medium-sized businesses of the North Caucasus Federal District (SCF) increased the volume of bank loans attracted to 5.76 billion rubles using the “umbrella” guarantees of the MSP Corporation in the first half of 2025. This is 6% more than in the same period last year.

“The North Caucasian region is actively using the mechanisms of state support to attract financing. According to the results of the first half of the year, thanks to the financial instruments of participants in the national guarantee system, small and medium -sized businesses of the North Caucasus was able to attract 22.3 billion rubles, which is 56% more than in the first six months of 2024. One of the most popular tools was the “umbrella” mechanism of the SME Corporation, which allowed entrepreneurs to attract the necessary funding in the absence or insufficiency of the pledge. And the banks thus received an additional incentive to support local business projects, ”said Alexander Novak, deputy chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation.

The leaders in attracting financing using the mechanism of “umbrella” guarantees were the Stavropol Territory (3.54 billion rubles), the Chechen Republic (0.86 billion rubles) and the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania (0.54 billion rubles), the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (0.43 billion rubles) and the Republic of Dagestan (0.26 billion rubles). The largest increase in financing with “umbrella” guarantees is noted in the Chechen Republic (+74%), the Stavropol Territory (+24%) and the Republic of North Ossetia – Alania (+13%).

“According to the results of the first half of 2025, in fact, every fourth ruble received by the entrepreneurs of the North Caucasus in the form of borrowed banking financing was obtained using the mechanism of“ umbrella ”guarantees. The procedure for obtaining them is automatically, without the participation of an entrepreneur. The guarantee itself is free for business: the bank pays the commission. For the North Caucasus Federal District, special limits of guarantees of the SME Corporation were allocated and there are no restrictions on industries. This year, our “umbrella” guarantees most often used enterprises in the segment of information and communication – compared to the same period last year, growth was more than six times, ”said Alexander Isaevich, General Director of the SME Corporation.

The growth of “umbrella” support was shown by enterprises in the processing segment (92%), services (88%), transportation and storage (40%), agriculture (34%), healthcare and social sphere (51%), culture and sports. In addition to the “umbrella” guarantees of the SME Corporation, the small and medium business of the North Caucasus Federal District, following the results of the first six months of 2025, received more than 8 billion rubles of financial support in the subsidiary of the SME Bank in the form of loans and warranty support. This is three times more than according to the results of the same period a year earlier.

The “umbrella” mechanism involves the provision of guarantees to banks – partners of the MSP Corporation, within the framework of which financial organizations issue loans to entrepreneurs provided by the guarantees of the SME Corporation. Such guarantees cover up to 50% of the bank loan. The amount of one guarantee can reach 1 billion rubles in a period of up to 10 years. The mechanism guarantees the bank the fulfillment of obligations on such a loan, thereby reducing reserves and releasing liquidity for additional lending to the business.

The “umbrella” mechanism of guarantees was launched in 2021 on behalf of the President of Russia and is currently being implemented at the national project “Effective and Competitive Economics”.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation signed the Resolution prepared by the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia on changing the requirements for the list of minimum necessary services provided at road service facilities. From March 1, 2026, at filling stations (AZS) in the right-of-way of highways, it must be possible to use DC charging stations with a capacity of at least 44 kW for electric vehicles.

The changes will affect petrol stations located on public roads of federal, regional, inter-municipal and local significance. The resolution supplements the list of minimum necessary services provided at road service facilities, and also regulates the minimum necessary requirements for the capacity of electric vehicle chargers.

"Over the past three years, there has been a threefold increase in the number of electric vehicles in the country. At the moment, more than 67 thousand "electric trains" have already been registered. Their operation is largely limited to city streets, where the density of electric charging stations is significantly higher than on highways. One of our implemented initiatives was the adjustment of requirements for filling stations in the right-of-way of public roads. Fast charging stations with a capacity of at least 44 kW will appear at new filling stations. This will generally increase the mobility of electric vehicles, the speed of their movement over long distances, and reduce the time required to charge an electric vehicle," commented Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Mikhail Kaminsky.

The work is being carried out within the framework of the implementation of the activities of the federal project “Production of Innovative Transport”, which is part of the new national project “Industrial Support of Transport Mobility”.

Financial news: Complaints against insurers have decreased, against banks – have increased: results of the first half of 2025

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Central Bank of Russia –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

For six months of 2025 complaints The number of complaints to the Bank of Russia from consumers of financial services and investors increased by 18.6% compared to the same period last year. A total of 182.4 thousand complaints were received.

At the same time, quarterly dynamics show a decrease in the number of complaints: in April-June of this year, it decreased by almost 7% compared to January-March.

Complaints about banks increased by 28.6%. Claims are most often related to blocking transactions, accounts and bank cards, as well as suspension of remote banking services. Banks are taking such measures to combat financial fraud.

At the same time, consumers complained almost twice as rarely about the imposition of additional services when taking out a loan.

The number of complaints against insurers has decreased by 47%. Thanks to the fact that citizens can independently clarify the value of the bonus-malus coefficient and challenge it through the website of the National Insurance Information System, template complaints have practically ceased to arrive: 80 against 10.4 thousand for the first half of 2024.

The number of complaints about microfinance organizations has increased slightly. The 3.6% increase is due to difficulties in returning funds for additional services and in obtaining credit holidays. There are fewer complaints related to new cases of imposition of additional services and credit histories.

The situation with claims against professional participants in the securities market developed in a similar way – they decreased by 19%. The smallest number of complaints related to sanctions restrictions were received against brokers (a 3.2-fold decrease) and depositories (a 2.5-fold decrease).

Complaints about non-state pension funds (NPF) increased by 17.7%. The reason is the growth of claims regarding the execution of long-term savings agreements. However, in absolute figures, there are few such complaints: 193 for more than 5.6 million concluded agreements. Complaints about disagreement with the transition from the Social Fund of Russia to NPF, as well as between NPFs, decreased by 40.3%.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

What innovations are available to VTB Online users?

Internet services capabilities VTB expanded – the bank has added more functions to the clients’ personal account for managing personal finances. Thus, in the transactions department, users have access to:

tracking of any receipts and expenses, including transfers and cash withdrawals; control of balance dynamics; analysis of expenses by individual brands; the ability to group transactions into your own categories.

“The key innovation is the creation of personal categories that allow you to group expenses and immediately see what amounts were spent, including by transferring funds,” VTB Bank noted.

To create your own spending group, you need to select any operation and specify the category name, as well as set the color for a visual display of expenses. The function will be useful for people who want to competently analyze and effectively plan their budget.

How do customers of other banks track transactions?

The advanced functionality for tracking receipts and expenses is a unique solution in the industry. Competitors offer budget analytics using standard tools:

Sber allows you to track transactions by category, it is possible to move transactions to other groups without the ability to create your own subgroups;
T-bank also allows you to change the category of expenses, but only within the framework of a ready-made set;
Alfa-Bank allows you to change the expense category and add a transaction if the payment was made in cash.

VTB Bank offers its clients a wide range of tools for filtering and grouping transactions. Another useful feature is the availability of tips that will help increase cashback depending on the user's payment behavior. In the future, VTB plans to launch a separate large service that simplifies personal budget management – the content and details have not yet been disclosed.

Marat Khusnullin: Traffic has been launched on the reconstructed overpass on the Adler bypass

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – Government of the Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Opening of traffic on the reconstructed overpass on the A-149 Adler – Krasnaya Polyana highway.

The opening of traffic on the reconstructed overpass on the A-149 Adler – Krasnaya Polyana highway took place. It is part of the future interchange at the eastern portal of the Adler bypass, which will later become part of the prospective highway from the M-4 "Don" highway to Sochi and will connect the village of Kudepsta with the village of Vysokoe. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"A developed road network with reliable artificial structures is one of the drivers of the country's socio-economic development. That is why we are actively working on updating and building modern highways. Thus, as part of this large-scale work, traffic was launched on the reconstructed overpass at 6 km of the A-149 Adler – Krasnaya Polyana highway. This is a major event in the framework of the implementation of the project to build an Adler bypass, which will later become part of the promising highway from the M-4 Don highway to Sochi and connect the village of Kudepsta with the village of Vysokoe. During the reconstruction of the overpass, specialists completed a large amount of work. By adding metal consoles on both sides, the existing overpass was widened to 13.5 m. Now Sochi residents and its guests will be able to move more conveniently both towards Adler and towards Krasnaya Polyana, bypassing a long turn through the entire interchange," said Marat Khusnullin.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the completion of the reconstruction of the overpass and the launch of vehicle traffic on it will allow them to begin the main task – the preparation and drilling of vehicle tunnels from Ivanovskaya Street to Kudepsta.

According to the Chairman of the Board of the state company Avtodor, Vyacheslav Petushenko, the reconstruction of the overpass began in November last year, and work on the site was carried out in two shifts.

"For the convenience of local residents, the overpass was equipped with noise protection screens, and in order to improve traffic safety, we installed lights, a barrier fence, and a storm drain. Also, during the reconstruction, we paid close attention to the quality and durability of the road surface. Thus, for laying asphalt concrete, we used the Superpave technology. This is an innovative method that takes into account climatic and transport loads, ensures high resistance of the surface to cracking due to temperature fluctuations, deformation and fatigue failure. This method helps to predict the condition of the road surface over time, taking into account the influence of climatic features of a particular region and the level of transport load," said Vyacheslav Petushenko.

Its participants included teams representing 17 regional centers for optimization of public services "My Documents" (MFC), as well as teams from the "Central Bank" and JSC "Analytical Center" (a subordinate institution of Rossotrudnichestvo). They will have to immerse themselves in the basics of the Unified Technology for Designing Solutions for Life Situations of the Agency and the State Corporation "Rosatom" over the course of four days. Another organizer of the educational process will be the Center for Strategic Research. The training is being conducted on the initiative of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia, and the Lipetsk Region is the host.

"In Russia, there is an example of a working digital platform that provides access to a huge number of public services, which is constantly evolving and improving. At the same time, there are requests for new tools and services that can also be transferred to an electronic format, making them more accessible and transparent. Lipetsk Oblast has experience in implementing electronic technologies using standardization and structuring of requests, which can also contribute to the development of new proposals for various life situations," Lipetsk Oblast Governor Igor Artamonov addressed the training participants.

The idea to create a model of a unified national system for managing project arrays “Strong Country: Unified Technology for Integrating Projects and Initiatives” was submitted by the Governor of the Lipetsk Region Igor Artamonov and was included in the top 100 ideas of the forum.

The model is aimed at improving the quality of life of citizens by increasing the efficiency of implementing projects and initiatives, as well as changing the paradigm of the system of interaction between government bodies and citizens by increasing the effectiveness and satisfaction with the solution of problems. The effects of implementing the model solution will be a reduction in duplication of processes in public administration, an increase in citizen satisfaction with services and savings in budget funds due to optimization.

A unified technology for designing solutions for life situations of ASI and Rosatom can become a key tool for the future model of a unified national system for managing project arrays.

"As part of the training, its participants will develop life situations using advanced optimization tools: service design and lean technologies. They will examine in detail the updated version of the federal register of public services FRGU 3.0, which will become a single source of reference data on all services provided in the country, and will become familiar with the functionality of the system in detail. The main result of the training is the formation of a systemic understanding of the tasks in creating a client-centric state and the digitalization of public services," commented State Secretary – Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Alexey Khersontsev.

It is expected that the training will improve the competencies of the RCO employees in various areas of their activities. For example, to optimize work processes, increase the level of human-centricity in the provision of services, and develop a description of the target state for state and municipal services (SMS). Using the Unified Technology, training participants will be able to analyze a state (municipal) service in order to improve the customer journey, as well as effectively transfer the provision of state and municipal services to the Unified State Services Portal to an electronic format.

"The main idea of creating regional optimization centers was initially to use the existing potential of highly qualified MFC employees and form competence centers from among them to help government agencies implement federal tasks to optimize public services. The ROCs met all expectations, and I admire their willingness to absorb new knowledge, pick up and test promising methods in order to stay on top!" – noted Natalia Yakovleva, Director of the MFC Development Center CSR.

Following the in-person training, teams from 17 constituent entities of the Russian Federation will work for 15 weeks to simplify the service provision scenario, reduce the number of interactions between citizens and departments, reduce the time it takes to provide services, and increase the demand for services.

The speakers of the program will be Andrey Kapalin, Director of ASI programs, Sergey Artemyev, Head of the project of JSC PSR of the State Corporation Rosatom, as well as Vyacheslav Nazarov, Head of the Department of Digital Transformation of Administrative Regulations of the Competence Center for Digital Transformation of Public Services of the CSR.

"Increasing citizens' satisfaction with the quality of public services is one of the Agency's key tasks, which was included in the new approved ASI Strategy until 2030. The training has already proven its effectiveness: socially significant projects based on human-centric principles are being launched in the regions. Involvement of departments in the Unified Technology project is an important step in continuing work on removing administrative barriers in obtaining key public services. The Unified Technology is already being used in the work of employment services, and now multifunctional centers will also receive our tool for work," explained ASI Program Director Andrey Kapalin.

Let us recall that 59 subjects have already completed training under the joint program with the State Corporation Rosatom "Unified Technology for Designing Solutions for Life Situations". The Federal Center for Competence in Employment has also joined the project: priority areas of work concern issues of employment of citizens returning from the SVO zone and their family members, as well as employment of young people – graduates of secondary specialized educational institutions and universities.

After the training, a solution accelerator is planned for three and a half months, then – the defense of projects before the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia and their testing at the MFC in the regions. ASI and the State Corporation Rosatom provide methodological support for solutions. Some regions have already successfully launched their practices. Among them are solutions related to assistance to participants of the SVO, families with children and people with disabilities.
