At this stage, it is important to note that the application of digital technologies creates some problems: low awareness of the population and illiteracy of the older generation, which give rise to fraud and opportunism; the introduction of new technologies should take place in a single and integral way, changes in only one cell can negatively affect the entire system as a whole; labor personnel should be ready for changes, because not all employees can accept novelty and get out of their own comfort zone. For a more detailed consideration of these issues, an analysis of the digitalization of the banking sector was carried out, its assessment at the present stage.
