Problems of Qualification of Fraud in the Field of Lending

The presented publication raises some questions about the qualification of fraud in the field of lending (Article 1591 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Despite the available explanations of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, the problems of legal assessment have not been eliminated, which causes certain difficulties in law enforcement. Due to the blankness of the disposition of the criminal law norm, law enforcement agencies are forced to turn to a variety of norms that allow them to correctly determine the signs of the corpus delicti provided for in Article 1591 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The authors, based on the available materials of judicial and investigative practice, have prepared some recommendations that allow them to correctly assess the signs of the corpus delicti, which in turn will ensure the fair administration of justice.
