In an attempt to curb-out black money, money laundering, and to have a sound economy, the central government of India has embarked on the cashless economy. It is the birth of a new era in the nation with life with digital money. This paper is going to conceptualize the meaning of a cashless system, explains online banking techniques in India, schemes by government to spread the cashless system in India and highlights the challenges of the cashless economy and electronic payment systems. The objective of this study is to examine the significant challenges that are faced by Indians on the way towards cashless. To achieve the objectives of this exploratory type of personal study, interviews will be conducted.

There exist many connections between money laundering and terrorism financing concerning illicit practices for fundraising, transfer or withdrawal of funds. The characteristic multistage process of money laundering is also typical for the terrorism financing and often contains a series of transactions in order to conceal the origin or disposition of money. The purpose of this article is the analysis of the best suited techniques of money laundering for terrorism financing using electronic payment systems (like transfers, mobile payment systems or virtual gold currencies). Furthermore, the suitability of payment systems for conducting secret transactions for terrorism financing will be analyzed regarding the realization of a single phase of money laundering.

The digitalisation of payment systems is accelerating and appears unstoppable. Today, we use mixed payment systems based on cash and digital money, but an increasing number of central banks are exploring the possibility of introducing central bank digital currency and full digitalisation. The greatest obstacle to this is not only the increase in the amount of cash in circulation, but also the situation of those social groups that do not use electronic payment methods and are excluded from financial services. There are several reasons for the latter, including economic and intellectual access difficulties, low levels of digital and financial literacy, banks’ business policies and difficulties in accessing digital infrastructure. Subsidising digital access and various educational training programmes can help reduce financial exclusion, but the most impactful solution may be developments that use artificial intelligence to replace face-to-face contact. This requires rapid, safe, transparent innovations that take into account the specific characteristics of the heterogeneous groups affected by financial exclusion.

Abstract Purpose of Review Cardiac fibroblast activation contributes to fibrosis, maladaptive remodeling and heart failure progression. This review summarizes the latest findings on cardiac fibroblast activation dynamics derived from single-cell transcriptomic analyses and discusses how this information may aid the development of new multispecific medicines. Recent Findings Advances in single-cell gene expression technologies have led to the discovery of distinct fibroblast subsets, some of which are more prevalent in diseased tissue and exhibit temporal changes in response to injury. In parallel to the rapid development of single-cell platforms, the advent of multispecific therapeutics is beginning to transform the biopharmaceutical landscape, paving the way for the selective targeting of diseased fibroblast subpopulations. Summary Insights gained from single-cell technologies reveal critical cardiac fibroblast subsets that play a pathogenic role in the progression of heart failure. Combined with the development of multispecific therapeutic agents that have enabled access to previously “undruggable” targets, we are entering a new era of precision medicine.

Introduction. Today, almost the only industry in the country that Ukraine can really be proud of and which is considered one of the most technologically advanced in the world is the development of card technologies, payment technologies and card infrastructure. The purpose of the article is to analyze the current state of electronic payment systems in Ukraine and highlight development trends. Results. The modern fintech directions in Ukraine are analyzed and examples of the impact of COVID-19 on the market of electronic payment systems for the last period are given. A number of trends are highlighted for further research in the field of electronic payment systems, which are now quite promising. Perspectives. Given the significant increase in non-cash payments, the problem of developing financial technologies and spreading awareness among the population has become especially urgent. It is necessary to improve not only the financial technologies themselves, but also the ways of providing them to clients and promoting modern financial technologies. Electronic payment systems can still be considered one of the most promising areas for future research.

 Against the backdrop of growing national strength and rapid economic development, the government has placed more emphasis on education. In recent years, remarkable achievements have been registered in terms of education in China, which lays a solid foundation for cultivating comprehensive professionally-trained personnel in the new era. However, the current education system is ridden with many setbacks and problems. This paper conducts an analysis of the specific conditions of education both at home and abroad, status quo of education in China, makes some reflections on the direction and measures of China's education reform based on the practical reality of education in China. Measures should be taken to inject personalities into the traditional, exam-oriented education system, which keeps pace with the new era. As is known to all, it's important to strike a balance between public education and non-government funded education in a scientific and reasonable manner. The overhauling of traditional education policies will pave the way for China's educational renaissance and realize the great blueprint of the Chinese dream.
