Аnnotation: The summation of the available and newly collected data on the shallow and deep structure and modern geodynamics of key regions of the north-western part of the Greater Caucasus was carried out. The fault-block model of this mountain-folded structure and the nature of seismogenic displacements along the faults on its north-western pericline have been developed. The reasons for the abrupt change of the folded-block structure in the area of the Anapa seismic-generating flexural-discontinuous zone were clarified. Detailed models of the shallow and deep structure were compiled for a number of the most important seismic-generating structures in the North-Western Caucasus, which gave rise to the Nizhnekubansky II earthquake on November 9, 2002 with M = 4.7 and Su-Psekh event on December 10, 2012 with M
