MOSCOW, June 18 - RIA Novosti. The dispute between banks and marketplaces in Russia has been resolved, the conflict situation has been resolved, this opinion was expressed in an interview with RIA Novosti by the head of the State Duma Committee on the Financial Market, Anatoly Aksakov.

“Yes, we have resolved all the issues, both representatives of marketplaces and credit institutions have an understanding. In my opinion, the conflict situation there has been resolved,” he said.

Aksakov noted that he would not voice what compromise the parties ultimately came to, but “the negotiation process was successful, and it leveled out the situation.”

“The topic turned out to be broader than we initially voiced it. But regarding the dispute that banks had with marketplaces, the issue was settled,” he concluded.

The so-called dispute between banks and marketplaces began last year. In November, the heads of Sberbank, VTB, T-Bank, Alfa Bank and Sovcombank sent a letter to State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin with a proposal to oblige marketplaces to set a single price for goods, regardless of the means of payment, and also to prohibit direct discounts, promotions and bonuses.
