The pandemic is a watershed event that has prompted both an evaluation of the achievements of information and communications technology (ICT) and also a re-evaluation of the prospects for developing social processes compatible with ICT. Much has been already been accomplished in Russia and throughout the world. But in the current pandemic, telemedicine is facing new challenges. This article discusses the state of the art in telemedicine and the prospects for its development in the changing conditions wrought by the pandemic. Examples are provided of the solutions that telemedicine can offer in such a difficult period, and the risks due to widespread use of telemedicine are analyzed. The impact of telemedicine is extensive with consequences for technology, management, and law. This article is a multidisciplinary study of telemedicine from the perspective of management and law. The article examines how telemedicine technologies have been implemented and developed, the obstacles to telemedicine's advance in various countries, and the legislative frameworks that governs it. The article's interdisciplinary study is based on an integrated methodology which combines: a formal logical approach to analysis of the legislation concerning telemedicine; a comparison of the development of telemedicine across several countries; and a sociological method to identify the attitude of Russian medical staff toward telemedicine and its impact. Although telemedicine has been developed and regulated separately by each country, there are general development trends, such as collection and analysis of electronic health records (EHR), devices and systems to simplify communication between doctors and with chronically ill patients, and others. Legislation is one of the significant barriers to the development of telemedicine in different countries. However, the pandemic has been a catalyst for legislative change, and it is precisely those changes that will eliminate the key problem in telemedicine that beset Russia where telemedicine now resembles separate pieces in a puzzle.

Current global trends in financial management and in banking in particular are demonstrating a gradual shift in focus from remote external financial control over bank’s operations to more internal risk-oriented financial control. Against this background, there is a fundamental change in organization of financial control in commercial banks, associated with the implementation of international norms and standards as well as Russian Federation legislation compliance with these norms and standards. In the context of rapid development and changes of nearly all technologies, the impacts from real and potential threats to internal and external environments, internal financial banking control is becoming increasingly important in ensuring growth of banks’ financial performance. Thus, given the importance of the very institution of financial control in the banking sector for financial and economic stability of any state, the presence of problematic issues in this area necessitates further studies of the characteristics of financial control in a commercial bank stemming from the already accumulated Russian and foreign experience.
