The engine of economic development is the development of digital data. Data is a new economic resource of the 21st century. The era of big data requires a high-quality organization, presentation for logical understanding and interpretation of queries according to certain criteria of filtering, constant updating and relevance of data, monitoring of use, protection against unauthorized interference. Data protection of economic agents is especially acute. The development of the digital economy also has negative consequences in promoting various sophisticated fraudulent machinations, money laundering schemes, data theft of certain individuals, citizens, and government data, which can lead to global political and economic conflicts and disputes. Therefore, a quality organization, comprehensive design of a database that provides composed monitoring of financial transactions by economic agents at the internal level are essential and relevant. The article develops a scheme of databases of economic agents, which are based on internal and external regulatory information for financial monitoring. Tables of databases on the basis of normative and reference information using enter sources cover the questionnaire of financial monitoring of the client, risk clients in the system of the economic agent, clients on which there are Court rulings which financial operations can contain signs of risky, PEP-clients of the economic agent, clients, on which there is a share of state property, prohibited industries, directories (code of the type of financial transactions, code of the sign of financial transactions of obligatory financial monitoring, code of the sign of financial transactions of internal financial monitoring, code of the identity document, code of the subject of primary financial monitoring , code of the type of message, code of legal status of the participant of the transaction, code of the type of the person connected with the financial transaction, code of presence of the permission to submit information, code of a sign of realization of the financial transaction, codes of areas of Ukraine, risk criteria), clients with FATCA-status.

For the successful conduct of certain financial transactions, economic agents determine the requirements for incoming and outgoing documents and develop appropriate templates for documents and messages. Identifying and verifying persons are effective tools that are given a leading role and help prevent the circulation of criminal funds through the financial and economic system, reveal the sources of illicit income, and identify the beneficiaries of such illegal funds. The article develops a block diagram of incoming and outgoing documents related to identifying and verifying persons subject to financial monitoring by economic agents and provides a detailed description of each stage of verification, requirements for documents, and content. Verification of incoming documents consists of three stages. At the 1st stage, identification documents are checked; at the 2nd stage – constituent documents (charter, founding agreement, model charter, decision on creation, changes to the constituent document, corporate agreement, description of documents, ownership structure, employment agreement (contract), regulations on governing bodies, decisions on election of officials, appointment order, card with sample signatures), at the 3rd stage financial documents (balance sheet, report on financial results, transcripts of balance sheet items, declarations, income statement, certificate on the absence of arrears of payments to the budget, certificate of cash flow from the servicing bank, account statement, certificate of indebtedness, patents, licenses, permits, certificates, certificates, credit agreements, guarantee agreements, letters of credit, loans, collateral, mortgages, guarantees, agreements with suppliers and buyers, lease agreements). The block diagram of the source documents for financial monitoring consists of four tuples, the key determinants of which are notifications to the Specially Authorized Body, notifications to the Security Service of Ukraine, information to the National Bank of Ukraine, letters to the client (servicing, from conducting financial transactions, to freezing the client's assets or to freezing assets on a financial transaction frozen by an economic agent).

Current legislation requires banks to continuously monitor all financial transactions of their customers – both legal entities and individuals. However, despite penalties, in the form of multimillion fines and written warnings most Ukrainian banks do not meet the requirements of the National Bank of Ukraine for development, approval and implementation of internal documents on financial monitoring. The purpose of the article is to summarize the practical experience of the banks in compliance with the policy of risk control of the bank's clients in the financial monitoring system. The sample of this study is 75 Ukrainian banks. The internal documents of existing Ukrainian banks on issues of internal bank financial monitoring were analyzed. The components of the risk control policy of the bank's clients were selected and the information on the completeness of the risk control policy of the bank's clients in the existing banks of Ukraine was summarized. The completeness of the risk-control policy of the bank's clients is determined at thefollowing stages: grouping of components of the risk-control policy of the bank's clients; clustering of Ukrainian banks according to the level of completeness of the bank's clients risk control policy. The method of cluster analysis identified groups of banks for the level of full risk-control of their clients. The four clusters with certain asymmetric distributions in their banks were identified. According to the results of generalization of practical experience of banks in compliance with the risk control policy of the bank's clients in the financial monitoring system, namely internal documents of existing banks on internal financial monitoring, it was found that some banks did not have actually developed internal policies or rules on compliance with the requirements of risk control legislation in the field of financial monitoring.

The innovative development of banking presupposes modernization in the approaches to anti-money laundering. The article considers the issue of financial monitoring of banking operations without bank employees’ participation through the "Client-Bank" system. Two models for monitoring the automatic payments in the "Client-Bank" system are identified. The list of functions performed by the "Client-Bank" system in terms of types of clients: individuals and legal entities (including individuals-entrepreneurs) was determined. The first model describes general indicators of transactions that have the risk of money laundering. The second model focuses on the specific features of the "Client-Bank" system functionality for legal entities or individual entrepreneurs. Several criteria for the riskiness of the operation in terms of money laundering are considered. The developed business process model takes into account the verification of the participant's affiliation to countries that do not implement or improperly implement the recommendations of intergovernmental organizations, the participant's affiliation to politically significant or related persons and the withdrawal of capital abroad, including offshore areas . In addition, checks of financial condition of counterparties, regularity of receipts of payments and cash withdrawals, circulation of foreign currency, loan repayment, receipt of a significant amount of cash, ip-address of the client and description of the transaction are included. A feature of the business model for legal entities is the verification of NACE compliance, analysis of the number of contractors, analysis of the timeliness of tax payments. Directions for further development of this study identify the possibility of intellectualizing the financial monitoring system and improving the regulatory framework in the system "Client-Bank" to enhance the system of anti-money laundering in banking institutions.

July marks one year since the adoption of the Federal Law of July 20, 2020 No. 211-FZ «On the execution of financial transactions using a fi nancial platform». Th e practice of applying this legal act has shown that it signifi cantly facilitated the access of individuals to fi nancial services and that it makes sense to extend its eff ect in terms of the use of financial platforms also to legal entities and individual entrepreneurs.

In order to carry out the extremely complex and diverse tasks it has to perform, the state needs important financial resources it can obtain either from within the country, from its taxpayers, physical persons or legal entities, or from external sources when internal resources are insufficient. The society cannot exist in the absence of the duties and taxes whose necessity is, on one hand stipulated by the Constitution, and on the other, proved by historical reality. It is only logical for these taxes to be imposed to the taxpayers. Fiscal pressure is a concept closely related to the notion of taxation and is often used to describe its level.   Keywords: taxes, fees, taxation, fiscal pressure, tax evasion

Many researchers have switched to purchasing their desired plasmids from commercial suppliers to save time and resources, as we did for 17 high-risk human papillomavirus plasmids. To our surprise, they were shown to be cross-contaminated with one another. Comparison between the production schedule and the pattern of contaminations proved that this contamination occurred during the production process, which was also shown for another two sets of commercial plasmids. Our experience indicates that the absolute purity of plasmids obtained from external sources cannot be guaranteed. Extreme caution should be exercised, especially when such plasmids are used for human gene therapies and DNA vaccines, where even a minute amount of contamination may pose significant risks to patients.

The solution of the State tasks to combat the laundering of proceeds from crime involves the processing of large amounts of heterogeneous data. The volume increasing of incoming information (approximately 20 % annually) leads to a decrease in the efficiency of its processing. Decision makers are forced to work with subjective assessments and face significantly increased timelines for obtaining results. An analysis of the Rosfinmonitoring tasks of money laundering combat has shown that the actual need for the number of objects to be analyzed is many times greater than the capabilities of analysts. This problematic situation requires the objects for analysis prioritization. The heterogeneous nature of information resources and their significant volume exclude the possibility of their manual processing. The solution to the problem of primary identification of financial transactions schemes can be found through visualization of assessments of identified entities. To visualize information about financial monitoring objects, it is necessary to rank them. However, the objects of financial monitoring – business entities, credit organizations, professional participants in the securities market – are described by sets of characteristics, i.e. essentially are objects of vector nature. In mathematics, the ordinal relations for vectors, as it’s known, are not defined. The article presents the results of the problem solving in finding integrated estimates of financial monitoring objects. The resulting measures of the deviant activity of business entities, credit organizations and professional participants in the securities market served as the basis for the scientific visualization of financial monitoring data. The proposed solution has significantly improved the efficiency of identifying schemes with the participation of business entities involved in illegal activities.

The adoption of a legal instrument relating to the harmonization of the ten Member States‟ laws on the financial transaction tax could be the first attempt in the EU history to establish an enhanced cooperation in the area of taxation. This project should be considered in the wider context of the financial sphere reform, which was caused by the global financial crisis. The draft Directive implementing enhanced cooperation in the area of the financial transaction tax has been discussed in the Council for 7 years but an accord has not been reached yet. The ambition of the European Commission to enlarge the scope of the financial transaction tax payers as much as possible is perceived by the non-participating Member States as an encroachment of their tax jurisdiction which contradicts the international customary law as well as The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. An examination of the reasons of unsuccessful negotiations may lead to a conclusion on drawbacks of the enhanced cooperation in taxation policy. It is not likely that this mechanism would be used in the future to tax a very mobile financial market where the tax base may be easily transferred to the non-tax states. Meanwhile the participation of the leading EU States in the project, a wide public support of the „Robin Hood Tax‟ and Brexit suggest that in the coming months financial transactions in ten Member States will be charged by the harmonized tax. However, the scope of the tax would be reduced in comparison with that in the initial draft of the European Commission.
