The lessons will be held in an updated format: they will be united by the gaming universe of the City of Finance. Students will become assistants to financial superheroes — experts in various fields: from digital security to the history of money and investments.

The first lesson will be conducted by Mikhail Mamuta, Head of the Service for the Protection of Consumer Rights and Ensuring the Availability of Financial Services of the Bank of Russia. Schoolchildren and college students will be able to connect tobroadcastsSeptember 18 at 09:30 Moscow time or watch it inVKontakte, where there will be an opportunity to ask questions to the lecturer.

Before updating the concept, the project authors studied the audience's preferences.

"For modern children, game formats are a part of life. That's why we decided that it would be much easier for them to understand complex topics of the financial world together with superheroes. At the same time, the lessons are still aimed at acquiring practical skills: how to make a personal plan, open a deposit, not overpay for a loan, buy your first share and protect yourself from fraudsters. The theory is practiced through metaphors, analogies and plots – without lectures and boring definitions. And schoolchildren will be able to compare results with other classes and see their progress," said Mikhail Mamuta.

This year, online lessons are turning 10. The updated autumn session will last until December 17, with about 800 broadcasts on 29 topics – from the basics of a personal budget and protection from fraudsters to the first steps in the world of investments.

Thanks to the distance learning format and a class schedule adapted to different time zones, students from all regions of the country will be able to participate in the project.

The class schedule, information about Finance City, superheroes and missions, and a catalog of updated lessons can be found atproject website.

The Bank of Russia has established new tariffs for compulsory civil liability insurance of owners of hazardous facilities. They will be applied from September 21, 2025.

At the same time, for facilities using pressure equipment and coal mines, the lower limit of the tariff corridor remains at the same level as now.

For hydraulic structures, petrochemical and mining industry enterprises, it is reduced by 25%. A more significant reduction (by 75%) is provided for some types of power plants, as well as facilities for storing mineral processing waste (tailings) and mine construction sites. The lower limit of the tariff corridor for all other types of hazardous facilities is reduced by 50%. The upper limits of insurance tariffs do not change.

The recalculation of tariffs takes into account the current dynamics of losses and more accurately reflects the level of risk of an accident.
