Euro-integration course of Ukraine has caused an intensive development of its banking sphere. The inconsistency between the possible legislative consolidation of criminal responsibility for socially dangerous acts in the banking sector and the objective needs of society in such protection becomes more and more obviousis in Ukraine. The processes of ‘clearing’ the banking system from financial institutions that are insolvent along with the positive results have led to an increase in the level of criminalization of the banking sector. Abuses aimed at taking possession of money from creditors and borrowers of banking institutions have become widespread. External threats to the stable functioning of the banking sector are combined with internal misconduct of unscrupulous bank managers, officials and persons related to the banks. Approaches to legislative regulation of suspicious banking transactions and to identify their real volumes must be improved. The measures aimed at reducing of the level of criminalization of the banking sphere by establishing criminal liability of managers and persons connected with the bank for unlawful acts in the banking sector must be taken. The certain issues of legal regulation of banking activity in Ukraine on criminal legal level are considered. The provisions of international law on these matters are  analyzed and the main ways to optimize Ukranian criminal legislation to ensure the safety of banking activity are suggested. It turns out that the need for criminal legal protection of banking is conditoned by an increase in the public danger of these acts at the present stage of the functioning of society. This need is also confirmed by the crisis in the financial and banking spheres of the state, the need to eliminate the gaps in the current legislation on banking safety and the changes that took place in the banking sector of Ukraine in the context of increased integration with the EU.

In this paper the impact on employment of technological changes in the banking sector is examined. A range of technologies are described which utilise computer, electronic, and telecommunications equipment to produce, store, obtain, and transfer information. Economic pressures on the banks to use the equipment are considered. The influence of the organisation of banking institutions on the introduction of technology is outlined. It is argued that technological change seems unlikely in the short term to be associated with a considerable decline in employment in the banking sector, but that there could be important changes in the nature and location of work. The introduction of technology appeared initially to support the concentration of employment in the main centres of banking activity. However, present evidence and likely future trends indicate that some dispersal of banking activities from London and the South East of the country is possible.

The article analyzes the novelties of Russian criminal legislation in the field of combating crimes in the field of sports. The relevance of the problem is due to the insufficient development of the theoretical and scientific-methodological aspects of the mechanism of legal protection of public relations in the field of professional sports in Russia. The purpose of the article is to develop a concept for the development of criminal legislation on responsibility for sports crimes. The main research method of this problem is formally legal, which allows the authors to formulate proposals for improving the criminal law. In addition, comparative legal and sociological methods were used to ensure the reliability of the results obtained. The study revealed that the following acts that infringe on relations in the field of sports are subject to criminalization within the framework of current Russian criminal law: 1) giving and receiving bribes by persons performing organizational and administrative and administrative functions in connection with the organization and conduct of professional sporting events; 2) hooligan behavior of spectators and other persons present during a professional sporting event. The study is aimed at the formation of a system of competencies among law enforcement officers to counteract violations in the field of sports, including the use of criminal law enforcement measures. The novelty and originality of the study lies in the fact that for the first time a concept is proposed for the development of criminal legislation on responsibility for crimes in the field of sports in the form of a revision of the corresponding criminal law norms.

The article is devoted to the problems of criminal legal protection of a person in Ukraine. The number of articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (for example, Articles 115, 116, 117, etc.) do not take into account the specific features of those socially dangerous acts, for which they provide for liability, which does not allow to provide them with adequate criminal law assessment. The author analyzed the components of individual crimes that affect the life, health, sexual freedom and sexual integrity of a person. Based on the study, conclusions were made on the need for changes and additions to the current criminal legislation of Ukraine. It is proposed to understand murder as the most intentional unlawful infliction of death of another person and to abandon the term «murder through negligence», replacing it with «infliction of death through negligence» in Art. 119 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. In this regard, it is proposed to replace the term «premeditated murder» with «murder» in Articles 115, 116, 117, 118 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. It is also proposed to provide in Part 2 of Art. 115 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine as qualifying features of a crime murder of a minor, elderly person and representatives of other vulnerable categories of the population. The article points out the inexpediency of using the term «systematic» for actions for which liability is provided in Articles 116 and 120 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, as it deprives them of the possibility of their application in the case of a single act, proposes a new version of Articles 116, 117 and 120 of the Criminal Code. while the latter contains a definition of «suicidal tendencies». The author proposes to exclude Art. 126-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, as it is incorrectly drafted, contains ambiguous terms and duplicates existing criminal law. A new version of the disposition of Part 1 of Art. 152 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine is proposed and indicated the need to take into account the voluntary consent of a person under 14 years of age in the classification of crimes against sexual freedom and sexual integrity of a person. Key words: crime, responsibility, qualification, term.
