Modern Integration Processes in the Asia-Pacific Region: the Formation of Trans-Regional Mega-Agreements (p. 24 - 30)

In the 21st century, especially in the last decade, new intercontinental integration projects appear on the global stage with a high potential for influencing the regional economic structure and at the same time bearing certain challenges for the international geo-economic and geo-political map of the world. Comprehensive new-generation inter-regional agreements are being formed, such as the TTP, the TTIP, the RCEP, the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement between Canada and the EU (CETA), the Japan-EU Economic Partnership. The Asia-Pacific region has been an active participant in the creation and promotion of mega-regional trade agreements. Mega-regional trade agreements in the Asia-Pacific region, namely the TTP and the RCEP, are analyzed as mega-projects with an unprecedented scale of liberalization within the framework of the agreement that include provisions complementing the WTO framework or extending beyond it. There identified reasons for the emergence of mega-regional trade agreements and prospects for the implementation of these projects, as well as possible consequences for the international economic system. It is established that new trans-regional projects, providing certain advantages to the participating countries, simultaneously carry both opportunities and challenges for the world economy. The latter are associated with the threats of crowding the countries that do not take an active part in the integration processes out of the global chains of value creation as well as of the processes of international trade.
Keywords: Asia-Pacific region, mega-regional trade agreements, international integration processes, trans-regional mega-agreements.

The Disposition Parameters of the Technological and Innovation Gap in the Global Economy (p. 31 - 35)

The aim of the study is to specify the disposition parameters of the technological and innovation gap in the global economy and determine the directions for overcoming it. It is proved that the process of technological asymmetry is reflected in the technological and innovation gap in the global economy. The positions of the countries-innovation leaders are clarified with the attention being focused on the growth of China’s influence through its efforts in technological innovations. There described the transformation of the positions in two planes: production of and trade in high-tech products. A hypothesis about the change in the nature of innovations during the last decade is confirmed. It is proved that the affordability of the formation of advanced technologies in China has become a reason for its transformation into the powerhouse of the world economic development. There identified and characterized the directions for bridging the gap between economies, which include increasing investment on the global innovation scale; promoting the spread of technologies and their adaptation; ensuring an unimpeded flow of talents and knowledge; using intellectual property rights to promote innovation for the poor, improve the innovation efficiency; entering markets.
Keywords: high-tech products, high-tech industries, innovations.

Tools for Export Promotion in the Context of Globalization (p. 36 - 41)

A comparative analysis of the rate of growth in exports of goods and GDP is carried out, and goods exports to GDP ratio in the context of the developed countries, developing countries, and countries with the transition economy is calculated. This allows to make a conclusion about a decrease in importance of exports as a key engine of the world economic growth during the past years. The legal basis of the WTO’s activities in terms of state support for exports is described. The main reasons for the emergence of a conflict of interests between countries with different levels of economic development concerning the use of individual protectionist barriers are revealed. Potential long-term consequences of the growth of export orientation under conditions of openness of national economies are identified. The measures and tools of the country’s export promotion in foreign markets are studied. It is grounded that under conditions of destabilization of global trade regulators, effective export promotion is a mechanism for increasing the competitiveness of the national economy of Ukraine. Prospects for further research in this area are the determination of instruments to stimulate exports, which have the greatest impact on the export orientation of certain economic activities.
Keywords: export, export promotion, global trade regulator, export orientation, international competitiveness.

In this regard, there singled out a number of global megatrends covering scientific and technical activities, international trade in high-technology goods and knowledge-intensive services, international migration of labor, etc. There also noted the change in the paradigm of rivalry and the “architecture” of the global economic leadership. The indicators of scientific and technical activities in several countries are analyzed, which proves the preservation of asymmetry. The results of the analysis of the strategies for building the knowledge economy in a number of developed countries (the US, EU countries, Germany, France, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Israel) and developing countries (China, India, Malaysia, Brazil, South Africa, Mexico) are presented. Their participation in the world scientific progress and innovation process is characterized, as well as the main directions of transformations in terms of the transition to the knowledge economy (new industrialization, development of science and education, improvement of innovation systems, development of international scientific and technical cooperation, etc.). One of the factors of structural changes at all levels is macro innovations. Within the framework of the proposed concept, three types of such innovations are distinguished: scientific and paradigm, structural, and transformational. Their relationship with the foreign economic strategy of the state is established.
Keywords: knowledge economy, world economy, globalization, strategy of economic development, innovations.

International Experience in Reforming the System of Higher Education Governance in terms of Increasing the University Autonomy (p. 50 - 56)

The aim of the article is to summarize the international experience of reforming the system of higher education governance and develop directions that will contribute to increasing the effectiveness of the Ukrainian model for governance of higher education and ensuring its autonomy. There identified common elements and trends in European higher education reforms: greater autonomy for higher education institutions with less direct administrative intervention; greater emphasis on private rather than public funding; emphasis on the quality and effectiveness of education. The tools for implementing reforms in the European higher education system are identified: the New Public Management (NPM) model, governance through networks, and new forms of governance. The changes in the university autonomy of European countries for the period of 2010-2016 are summarized. The content of the reforms in terms of increasing the autonomy of HEIs in the countries of Asia is disclosed. Possible vectors for reforming the system of higher education governance in Ukraine are identified: introduction of a model for funding HEIs on the basis of combining a one-time full budgeting and financing by results; assigning universities ownership of their buildings and their sale in the market; strengthening the decentralization of government control of higher education; development of legislative bases for the self-sufficiency of HEIs; inclusion of external stakeholders in decision-making governing bodies of HEIs; maximum involvement of students in decision-making.
Keywords: higher education, reforms, external governance, higher education institution (HEI), autonomy.

Development of Agribusiness in the Context of the Resource Saving Problem in the Agricultural Sector of Ukraine (p. 57 - 61)

The aim of the article is to study the development of agribusiness in the context of the resource saving problem in the agricultural sector of Ukraine. It is established that the agricultural intensification is inextricably linked with the problem of resource saving, which is in increasing the efficiency of using resources and their inclusive conservation. A number of positive economic consequences of the conservation of material resources in the sphere of agriculture on the scale of the national economy are considered. There disclosed the essence of the economic mechanism for resource saving in the agricultural sector, which involves justifying a complex of economic, organizational, technical, technological, as well as other measures aimed at stimulating resource saving. It is proved that one of the directions of strengthening the competitiveness of the domestic agricultural sector and an effective resource saving tool is the introduction of zero waste agriculture. It is concluded that the implementation of resource saving policies, in particular in the agricultural sector, is impossible without an effective system for managing resource saving processes at all levels, adoption of appropriate legislative measures, new integrated approaches to ensuring the conservation of material resources, a single resource saving policy based on modern technologies for its implementation, first of all — non-waste ones.
Keywords: agricultural sector, agribusiness, non-waste technologies, resource saving.

Transformation of Employment by Types of Economic Activity as an Indicator of Structural Changes in the Economy of Ukraine (p. 62 - 70)

The aim of the article is to analyze the process of structural transformations of employment in Ukraine by spheres of economic activity in order to identify priority directions for the development of the labor market in the context of the world economic trends. In the article the analysis of the transformation of employment in Ukraine is carried out according to the methodology of M. Castells used in the book “The Information Age: Economy, Society and Culture”. Based on the data of the State Statistics Committee and Eurostat, a comparative analysis of the transformation of employment by major groups of foreign economic activity is made, special attention being paid to the industrial and service sector. The obtained results testify to the narrowing of the domestic labor market and deformation of its structure, noncompliance of structural transformations of employment in Ukraine with modern world trends. This is manifested in a decrease in the percentage of employed in the industrial sector of the economy (due to its stagnation and decline), its growth in agriculture, and a much lower share of employment (in comparison with the EU countries) in the service sector. A decrease in the share of the employed in services to manufactures is revealed, which is a “trap” for the development of the Ukrainian industry. The share of people employed in the domestic service sector remains low, which indicates a low standard of living for the majority of the country’s population. The share of the employed in social services though is growing but significantly slower than in European countries. There substantiated the necessity of developing a strategy for a new social and economic policy aimed at the revival and innovation development of the industrial sector, modernization of the industrial and social infrastructure, and on this basis — ensuring a progressive structure of productive employment.
Keywords: labor market, employment of population, employment structure, employment transformation, deindustrialization, service sector.

Municipal Energy Planning under Conditions of Globalization: Imperatives and Objectives (p. 71 - 78)

The article reveals the importance of energy planning for local authorities in the path of achieving the goals of sustainable development. The quintessence of energy planning in territorial communities of Ukraine and Europe has been outlined from the perspective of analyzing the infrastructure sectors of the municipal economy. The article is based on observing certain international methodologies related to local energy and climate planning. The evolution of Covenant of Mayors initiative is briefly described with a focus on its intensive expanding in terms of energy and climate issues. The experience in the development of municipal sustainable energy and climate action plans in European countries and Ukraine is studied. A survey of empirical data on the consumption of fuel and energy resources and greenhouse gas emissions in territorial communities of Ukraine and European countries is conducted. The European methodological guidelines on the subject under study are highlighted based on the key policy documents. A few practical examples of Ukrainian and European cities are presented in order to illustrate possible actions corresponding to the defined problem. A systematic framework is proposed to describe the various and complex aspects of energy planning in cities with regard to rational implementation of energy efficient measures. The innovative mechanisms, main barriers and opportunities for the effective implementation of energy efficient projects in territorial communities of Ukraine and European countries are revealed. It is substantiated that under the current conditions of globalization, using project-oriented paradigm, municipal energy planning instruments become key motivational factors for development sustainable energy policy.
Keywords: energy planning, sustainable energy and climate action plan, globalization, local authorities, energy consumption, energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions, sustainable development.

The Problem of Determining Weighting Factors for Building the Ranking of Ukraine’s Higher Educational Institutions in Terms of Scientific Activity (p. 79 - 87)

The article is dedicated to the problem of rating Ukraine’s higher educational institutions in terms of scientific activity and the study of the influence of weighting factors on the position of a university in the ranking. The initial information space used in this work makes it possible to determine the potential of scientific activity in terms of staffing and resources provision as well as its effectiveness in terms of quality of the training of scientific staff (students, graduate students, young scientists, etc.), financial results of scientific and publication activities. As the objects of the research 98 universities of Ukraine are selected. On the basis of the maximum entropy method, the weighting factors that determine the significance of each initial indicator of the information space are calculated. Using the taxonomic method, integral estimates in terms of potential, effectiveness and scientific activity for each institution in whole are calculated with and without the use of the weighting factors. The analysis of the received scores of the universities is carried out, changes in the positions under influence of the weighting factors are investigated. It is concluded that the use of the weighting factors in calculating the integral estimate of the scientific activity of Ukrainian universities did not lead to shifts among the first (the strongest) and the last (the weakest) universities. But changes in the positions in the ranking, sometimes quite significant, took place in most of the universities occupying the middle positions. Thus, due to the weighting factors, the influence of outlying cases on individual indicators is leveled, which allows obtaining more stable, fair and informative results of rating the scientific activity of universities.
Keywords: higher educational institution, scientific activity, integral indicator, weighting factor, information entropy, potential, effectiveness.

Financial and Economic Support for the Activity and Publication Openness of Workers in the Scientific Sphere: Management Doctrine (p. 88 - 95)

The aim of the article is both in the system identification of the financial and economic features of supporting the scientific sphere and in the development of a management doctrine to increase the efficiency of activity of scientific workers in the global scientific space by combining publication openness, motivational levers, business and consumer interests based on foreign experience and strategiology of development in the realities of Ukraine. It is determined that the publication openness of a particular scientist depends on the scientific openness of publications in national print media, which are not always transparent for the global scientific space. The advantages and disadvantages of using scientometric databases as to editions that ensure the openness of scientific research results in terms of financial possibilities are considered. There singled out the managerial preference of the Information and analytical system “Bibliometrics of the Ukrainian Science”, which allows creating a bibliometric profile of a particular scientist through the environment of Google Scholar and improve the “visibility” ensuring both the improvement of his/her competitiveness and increase in the financial and economic support. There considered administrative advantages of associative complexes, similar to the Ivy League universities in America, and for the first time from the perspective of the strategiology of development there synthesized an approach regarding the creation of the given organizational structure, where the most famous classical universities would be concentrated, in Ukraine. The advantage and perspectivity of the proposed measures is the system formation of the management doctrine of financial and economic support for the scientific sphere, the optimization of using the scientific potential of the territory and ensuring its correspondence to the needs of consumers and business, the activization of publication openness and efficiency through managerial and motivational tools and effective use of taxpayers’ money.
Keywords: financial and economic support, scientific sphere, competitiveness, activity of scientific workers, publication openness, evaluation, strategiology of development, taxpayers.

Assessment of the Industry Development and its Branches of Activity in the Country (p. 96 - 107)

The article is dedicated to the problems of assessing and analyzing various aspects of competitiveness of industry and its development. It is proved that the toolkit for assessing development of industry and its individual activities requires further improvement in terms of ensuring the possibility of determining through its application the ways to overcome negative consequences of structural deformations in the industrial complex of an economy, taking into account the current trends in innovation and technological development of the world’s leading countries. An analysis of the existing approaches to assessing development of industry (its competitiveness) in general and individual branches (activities) in particular, proposed by international institutions, scientists and practitioners, is carried out. It is shown that in assessment of development of industry and its individual branches, there used aggregated private indicators, which do not allow taking into account the specifics of branches, their significance in industry, technological level, or determine structural changes and their impact on the country’s socio-economic development. In order to eliminate these shortcomings, and based on the existing experience of specialists in this field, an improved model for assessment and a methodological approach to assessing the development of industry and its individual activities in the country are proposed.
Keywords: industry, activities, competitiveness, development, assessment, methodological approach, producibility.

Reforming the Pension System of Ukraine in the Context of Modern Global Trends (p. 108 - 116)

Proper social protection for present and future generations of pensioners is possible only if the level of solvency and financial stability of the state pension system in the long term are ensured. The aim of the article is to substantiate the directions for further improving the pension system of Ukraine in the context of modern global trends. The study found that the need for qualitative changes in the current pay-as-you-go pension system is determined by the inability of the PFU to make pension payments at the expense of its own funds, attracting the state as a donor and redistributing a significant amount of public financial resources to finance pension expenditures. Based on the critical analysis of the government’s legislative initiatives for the modernization of the pay-as-you-go pension system and the introduction of a funded system of nationwide pension insurance and the expansion of the non-state pension system, taking into account the experience of most countries in the world, recommendations are developed for a further reforming of the pension system and corresponding transformation of Ukraine’s pension legislation. Prospects for further scientific research in this area are analysis of the world practice in managing non-state pension funds and regulation of their investment activities.
Keywords: old age provision, pension reform, world trends, modernization of the pay-as-you-go pension system, personal responsibility, mandatory pension insurance, non-state pension provision.

Problems and Prospects of the Dialog Planning of the Reproductive Processes in the National Economy (p. 117 - 124)

Some aspects of the formation, development and current application of the technique of dialog planning in economic studies of the reproduction processes in the national economy are analyzed. The stages of the formation of dialog planning as decision-making in human machine systems in organizational systems of a hierarchical and non-hierarchical type are determined. Investigation of the reproduction processes of complex economic systems and the dialog planning of their development is expedient to implement in the framework of a simplified economic model of a closed / open economy, which simultaneously describes the state of the research object and the processes of its reproduction. The methodological and informational basis for analyzing the reproduction processes within this model is the system of national accounting. Multicriterion analysis of the reproduction processes in the national economy as a complex socio-economic system at the beginning of research should be replaced by analysis of GDP in the context of GDP production processes and distribution of GDP, which allows to identify the peculiar features of the economy, its advantages and disadvantages, problem aspects, etc. It is expedient to study the reproduction processes in the national economy with maximal simplification of the system of balance to carry out an objective analysis of reproductive processes and their effective impact on the dynamics of GDP. To do this, a simplified system of balance of a closed economy should be applied to studying an open economy, while writing off all the discrepancies as results of external relations. In the framework of the simplified economic model, a macroeconomic analysis of the proportion of the economic reproduction in Ukraine is conducted, and its influence on the GDP dynamics is investigated.
Keywords: national economy, reproduction processes, dialog planning, national accounts, system analysis, simplified economic model, macroeconomic proportions, dynamics of economic development, open / closed economy, results of foreign economic activity.

The Condition of and Structural Changes in the Energy Sector of Ukraine (p. 125 - 137)

The article is dedicated to the analysis of the condition of Ukraine’s energy sector and its structural changes in the period 2000-2016. The dynamics of electric power production in Ukraine and the world, as well as the capacity utilization factor are studied. There analyzed the structure of capacities and electric power production in Ukraine by types of generation: those of thermal power plants, nuclear power plants, combined heat and power plants, hydroelectric power plants, and renewable energy sources. The lifetime of the existing capacities is studied. Structural changes in the capacities and electric power production in Ukraine are investigated. It is proven that a tendency to reduce the electric power production in Ukraine, with a simultaneous increase in the world production, was observed; and that most of production capacities in the nuclear, thermal and hydropower sector have expired their design lifetime and require replacement or modernization. It is determined that the structural changes in capacities and electric power production in Ukraine in the period 2000-2016 were very low with the largest structural change in capacities and electric power production in the period under review taking place in the production of electricity from renewable energy sources, and a significant negative structural change – in the production of electricity in thermal power plants.
Keywords: energy sector, condition, structural changes, thermal power plant, nuclear power plant, combined heat and power plant, hydroelectric power plant, renewable energy sources.

The Ideology, Pragmatics, and Effectiveness of the Tax Reform in Ukraine (p. 138 - 147)

The article is dedicated to the assessment of the ideology and pragmatics of the tax reforms in Ukraine. The author’s approach to studying the problem differs from the traditional approaches, which are focused on assessing the fiscal effectiveness of taxes, and is aimed at evaluating the validity of such reforms and their benefits for the society with consideration for long-term development of the country. The purpose of the article is to assess the ideology and pragmatics of the tax reforms in terms of their validity and effectiveness for the society. There analyzed the vectors of the tax reforms concerning the main budget-forming taxes: profit tax, personal income tax, VAT. A comparative analysis of the trends in taxation of incomes and value added in Ukraine and the world is carried out. It is substantiated that the goals of the tax reforms declared by the authorities in Ukraine were either contrived or were never achieved. The real goals of the endless reforming were the creation of broad opportunities to avoid taxation on the “legitimate” grounds for the oligarchic clans. It was the avoidance of taxation that created the prerequisites for their accelerated enrichment, which was used mainly with unproductive purposes and did not contribute to the development of the national economy. In view of this, we consider it necessary to give a negative assessment of the tax reforms that were carried out in Ukraine. In addition, the result of the tax reforms was the inadequate filling of the budget with tax revenues and, consequently, very limited financing of the social sphere, whose state is recognized by the government itself as at the least unsatisfactory, being in fact catastrophic. Thus, the impartial assessment of the tax reforms in Ukraine testifies both to their inefficiency, and the negative consequences for the society, on the one hand, and the full realization of the targets for the oligarchs, on the other.
Keywords: tax reforms, profit tax, VAT, personal income tax, investments.

The Methodology for Integral Assessment of the Impact of Renewable Energy on the Environment under Non-Stationary Economy (p. 148 - 155)

The need to reduce anthropogenic load, eliminate threats to environmental safety and provide ecologically oriented development are one of the main global challenges of our time. At the same time, the replacement of traditional energy sources with alternatives ones requires a quantitative assessment of direct and indirect environmental impacts. The article analyzes the dynamics and structure of pollution in Ukraine in terms of its sources and forms as well as their impact on the carbon productivity of the GDP. It is proposed to assess the impact of alternative energy on the environment under non-stationary economy using an integral indicator that takes into account a number of factors, in particular the change in the share of RES in the total primary energy supply, share of renewable energy production, the index of greenhouse gases by the energy sector, change in the quality of atmospheric air in the urban populated area, amount of investment in reducing CO2 emissions, carbon intensity of energy production, share of thermal generation capacity that meets the ecological requirements of the EU.
Keywords: environment, renewable energy, pollution, emissions, generation.

A Retrospective Analysis of the Development of Fiscal Decentralization (p. 156 - 163)

The study forms the theoretical basis for the implementation of fiscal decentralization in Ukraine on the basis of determining the correspondence between the evolution of scientific approaches to the formation of an effective model of public administration and the degree of power centralization at a particular stage of the development of society. The views of thinkers of the ancient states of Egypt, Mesopotamia, India, China, Rome, Greece are generalized, and the priority of centralized public administration without segregation of centralization forms is determined. The degree of centralization in the period of development of feudal states is characterized. The scientific views of representatives of the neoinstitutional direction of economic thought are analyzed in detail, and the stages of the formation of decentralization, in particular fiscal, as a separate theory, are defined. The stages of and the corresponding organizational and legislative documents for the implementation of decentralization in Ukraine are outlined, and its results are characterized.
Keywords: evolution, state, fiscal decentralization, public administration, theory.

The Digital Transformation of the Ukrainian Industry: Key Aspects (p. 179 - 184)

Based on the analysis of foreign experience in digital transformations of industry and national economies as a whole, there made an attempt to highlight the key aspects of such transformations in Ukraine. It is substantiated that digitalization allows to obtain significant advantages due to decrease in costs of economic and social transactions, expansion of access to services and sharp increase in efficiency. On a national scale, this means acceleration of the economic growth, increase in the number of jobs and improvement of the quality of services. To take advantage of digitalization is possible only if the business climate is constantly improved, investments in new technologies are made, and large-scale economic reforms are carried out. The main technological trends in the sphere of digital transformation of industry are defined: mass application of intelligent sensors in the equipment and production lines; transition to unmanned production and mass application of robotic technologies; transition to storing information and carrying out calculations from own facilities to distributed resources, etc. The key developed digital initiatives for the national economy are analyzed. There proposed the priority directions for the formation and development of the digital economy for the period until 2020 for Ukraine, in particular, the creation of conditions for the digital transformation of the country’s industry; formation of information and telecommunication networks; elaboration of integrated engineering software platforms and development of design and product lifecycle management environments; development of means of production that meet the requirements and technological standards of Industry 4.0. Priority directions of the policy at different stages of digitalization of the economy are developed.
Keywords: digital transformation, industry, development, trends, technologies, strategy, national economy.

The Program for Urban Development in the Context of Current Urbanization Challenges (p. 185 - 194)

The aim of the article is to study the evolutionary development of the New Urban Agenda (NUA) and analyze the strategic tools of urban development within the existing urban paradigm at the present stage. The global conceptual transformations through the lens of identifying urbanization as an engine for sustainable and comprehensive economic growth and sustainable urban development are analyzed. In the context of providing mutually complementary links between urbanization and economic development, the content components of the system of actions for implementing the NUA aimed at achieving sustainable urban development are systematized. Prospects for further research in this direction are searching for universal tools of strategic urban development within the framework of the provisions of the NUA, as well as analyzing the impact of local factors on the process of implementing the NUA.
Keywords: urbanization, city, economic development, sustainable development, integral approach.

The Structural Analysis of Economic Development of Regions (p. 195 - 205)

The aim of the article is to analyze the economic development of regions by means of the model of the economic base using such indicators as the coefficients of surplus labor and localization, coefficients of concentration and diversification, industry multiplier coefficient, and coefficient of intensity of performing basic functions. Within the framework of the analysis, the areas of specialization are defined, the intensity of performing the basic functions is assessed, and the correlation between the areas of specialization — auxiliary (complementary) and servicing — is investigated. Furthermore, the identification is carried out, that is, it is determined which particular stages of the production process are concentrated in the region: management, research or production. When studying the functional structure of regions, attention is focused on identifying the functional specialization of the region under study and determining its level of specialization. The factors of localization made it possible to determine the level of regional specialization and the dominant functional specialization of the region. Through functional specialization, there identified the spheres of economic activity, whose value in a given spatial unit is greater than that achieved in a certain set of units. The reasons for regional specialization should be seen in the system of demographic conditions, environmental conditions and in the formed infrastructure environment. When determining the regional multiplier and the coefficient of intensity of performing basic functions, attention is focused on the division according to the functional feature of the economic activity: production and infrastructure, management, research and development. The evaluation of the intensity of performing basic functions is given through the division of these indicators according to the functional feature of the economic activity. The results obtained are a prerequisite for the formation of sustainable development strategies for the region.
Keywords: region, economic development, structural analysis, production factors.

The Analysis of the Current State and Trends in the Development of the Housing and Utilities Infrastructure in Regions of Ukraine (p. 206 - 211)

An analysis of the current state and trends in the development of the housing and utilities infrastructure in regions of Ukraine is conducted. It is noted that the housing and utilities infrastructure is an important social sector that provides the population, enterprises, and organizations with the necessary housing and public utility services, which significantly influences the development of the economy of the country and its regions. The analysis showed that public utility enterprises remain stably unprofitable both in Ukraine in whole and in its regions. The attention is focused on the fact that the main sources for financing the housing and utilities infrastructure are the state and local budgets, payments of individuals and legal entities for housing and public utility services, investments and loans provided by international financial organizations that make a significant contribution to the financing of the sector under conditions of budget deficit. Summarizing the results of the PEST analysis and SWOT analysis of the development of the housing and utilities infrastructure in regions of Ukraine, the author concludes that there are a significant number of negative reasons for the weak aspects of the functioning of the housing and utilities infrastructure. There identified economic incentives for attracting potential investors to the programs for the development of the housing and public utility sector in the regions, which are based on the legislative consolidation of the basic conditions for effective functioning of the market for housing and public utility services.
Keywords: housing and utilities infrastructure, region, development trends, analysis, public utility enterprise.

Economic Justification of the Organization and Creation of a Business Entity for the Introduction of an E-Ticket (p. 212 - 218)

The aim of the article is to present the economic studies and justification of the creation of an individual business entity designed to serve all aspects of the functioning of a contactless fare payment system in public transport for the purpose of solving the issue of optimizing revenue collection from the provided transport services, which is an important step to provide a break-even operation of carrier enterprises. Ensuring the implementation of the measures indicated in the article will give an opportunity to really influence the improvement of the state of affairs in such an important branch of the urban economy as urban electric transport. Since it is not only a social mode of transport but also the most environmentally friendly mode of transport, as well as the one that is most promising to use in the future where very soon electric vehicles will become the dominant means of transportation. The economic and legal aspects of concluding contracts examined by the authors made it possible to highlight the general problems of the functioning of enterprises providing services for passengers in cities of our country, which, as a matter of fact, hamper their development.
Keywords: public transport, electronic fare payment system, business entity.

Improving the Assessment of the Level of Regional Resources Management (p. 224 - 229)

The work improves the assessment of the level of managing development resources by regions of Ukraine, which is based on the use of a comprehensive assessment — multidimensional comparative analysis (namely the rank-sum test) and allows comparing the effectiveness of managing resource development in regions of Ukraine using the available data, on their status on the basis of a unified system of indicators, as well as comparing the level of managing development resources by each region of Ukraine in time. The uneven development of regions of the country is investigated, the growth of inter-regional socio-economic disproportions is revealed. It is determined that, having a fundamentally different composition and volume of natural, human, financial resources, the state and effectiveness of managing development resources by regions of Ukraine is significantly different. The level of managing development resources by regions of Ukraine is proposed to be assessed by the aggregate indicators characterizing the increase in the productivity of the regional economy, profitability of local business, and level of incomes of the population; general increase in social standards, quality of life and business environment.
Keywords: regional resources, regional development resources, assessment of management level.

Conceptual Foundations for the Formation of a New Paradigm for Socio-Economic Development of Regions (p. 230 - 235)

The aim of the article is to define the theoretical and methodological foundations and practical basis for the process of forming a new paradigm of regional development, in particular the features of classical and modern theories of regional development in the aspect of the formation of factors for intensifying the social and humanitarian development of entrepreneurship in regions. There noted an increase in the role of humanitarian values and social factors in the economic development of regions in the existing paradigms of regional development, which makes it necessary to concentrate research on the development of the humanitarian and social spheres in close interrelation with economic development. Based on the research and analysis of internal and external factors of the regional economic development, a set of key factors for the development of the knowledge economy in regions is defined. The study of regional approaches to regional development has led to the conclusion that, under current conditions, the existing paradigms of regional development should be improved taking into account the realities of the emergence of new economic systems based on human capital and knowledge, as well as on the introduction of the component of social and humanitarian space of the region into the analysis of regional development processes.

The Implementation of Principles of Sustainable Development in Ukrainian Oil and Fat Enterprises (p. 242 - 249)

Three main components of the concept of sustainable development are analyzed: economic development, social inclusion and environmental conditions. The expediency of introducing the principles of sustainable development in enterprises of the fat and oil industry is grounded. The state of Ukraine’s agriculture is studied, and its influence on the depletion of natural resources is determined. The evolution of the development of the oil and fat industry, its current state and role for the economy of Ukraine are considered. It is found that for successful functioning of the principles of sustainable development, enterprises of the oil and fat industry need to introduce an export duty for the export of rapeseeds and soybeans, a more stringent control of incoming raw materials and international certification of the enterprises. Recommendations are given on the development of innovation activity, attraction of investments and new approaches in logistics.
Keywords: sustainable development, oil and fat industry, agro-industrial complex.

Formation and Use of Stress Management Systems in Enterprises (p. 257 - 262)

In the article there developed a typology of factors of forming and using stress management systems in enterprises that implies their division into factors of direct and indirect impact. The first group includes the factor of the management system as a whole, competence of the staff, information support, goals and tasks of stress management, temporary orientation of systems of stress management and its object. In turn, the factors of indirect impact include the level and scale of the enterprise’s activities, stability of the functioning environment, organizational culture, psychological management features, organizational communications, stakeholder interests, social responsibility, and corporate image. Knowledge and understanding of such factors contributes to a more thorough diagnosis of processes within these systems, as well as selection of an adequate model of managerial behavior. In addition, the results provide an opportunity to optimize the parameters of stress management systems based on identification of the level of influence of each of these factors. It is concluded that most of the factors in forming and using stress management systems in enterprises are those that are purposefully exposed to influence on the part of the organization, for example, by making decisions, attracting additional resources, increasing the competence of the staff, reviewing the terms of contracts with partners, changing methods of performing work, etc. This is due to the fact that most of the factors considered are factors of the internal environment.
Keywords: deviation, enterprise, system, stress management, management.

Socio-Economic Basis of Systems for Managing Machine-Building Enterprises (p. 280 - 288)

The scientific approaches to the formation of the socio-economic methodology of enterprise management are systematized. The components of the process of social transformation of economic methods for enterprise management into social and economic ones are justified with the aim of ensuring the social priorities of production and the corresponding interests of the hired personnel. Based on the retrospective analysis, the laws of development of socio-economic management methods in economic theory are highlighted, which proves the historical necessity of their social orientation. The methodology for quantitative determination of the degree of distributive relations between capital and hired labor is proposed in accordance with the structure of labor potential in view of its new (author’s) social and economic concept, which provides for the calculation of legally established and mandatory social standards. The obtained results allowed to form the author’s vision of the social paradigm of enterprise management systems, which underlies the principles of priority of the social foundations of the management methodology for managing the production sphere in order to facilitate realizing the idea of socialization of society.

Economic Security of a Company in the Structure of the Mechanism of Corporate Control (p. 302 - 310)

The spread of the corporate form of business management caused the emergence of specific problems associated with the need to harmonize the interests of owners of corporate rights within a single strategic line of conduct of a joint-stock company. The need to identify such problems and create contours for organization of their management regarding them as specific threats to corporate security has determined the direction of the study. That is why the aim of the article is bringing the processes of economic security management of a joint-stock company in line with the processes of distribution and implementation of its corporate control. The basis for achieving this goal is the model of the problematic area of forming a corporate control mechanism of a company based on the stakeholder approach to defining goals and objectives of corporate control. At the same time, the organization of corporate security management is based on the introduced classification criterion of threats. This criterion allows identifying specific threats that arise specifically in the sphere of corporate relations. The adoption of an architectural approach to the description of the mechanism of corporate control enabled determining the relationship between threats of different hierarchical levels. Management of the level of security is based on the introduction of practices to counter the threats that within the architectural model of a company are associated with stakeholders.
Keywords: corporate control, economic security, joint-stock company, corporate architecture, stakeholder interests.

Humanization and Optimization of the Structure of Human Needs in the Context of Globalization (p. 330 - 335)

Holistic harmonious development of a person depends on the quantity and quality of the needs being met. A vector of social and economic development aimed at maximizing rather than harmonious satisfaction of needs destroys the holistic human reproduction, turns a person into a consumer. The article is dedicated to the issue of humanizing the system of needs and optimizing its structure, which expand the conditions for holistic human development. The modern transformation of the structure of needs, which takes place in the context of globalization, occurs under the stringent pressure of many objective and subjective factors that sometimes have a multidirectional and contradictory impact on the system of needs. Needs are in the state of movement, development, expansion; the structure of needs is complex, multilevel, hierarchical. An important task for economic practice is the creation of mechanisms for external and internal restriction of excessive needs, formation of effective social norms of personal consumption. The search for a new vector of civilized socio-economic development should be oriented toward such structural changes in the system of human needs that will be formed under the influence of humanization, which ensures the balance of structural elements. The progress of humanity is not confined to the restriction of needs of a person, it is associated with the development of his/her abilities, with such dynamic and structural changes in the system of needs that contribute to the development and realization of abilities of a person. Among the main directions of the transformation of the structure of human needs in the context of the spread of the contradictory impact of globalization there can be separately singled out the acceleration of the quantitative dynamics of the growth of needs, changes in their quality, improvement of the forms and methods for their satisfaction; growth of interethnic and intra-national gaps in the volume and structure of needs; institutionalization of personal consumption and its transformation into a factor of economic growth; identification of demand as the leading factor in building social identity.
Keywords: human needs, free and converted forms, consumer society, exaltation of needs, humanization.

Reproduction of Economic Interests as a Nonlinear Dynamical System (p. 336 - 343)

The aim of the article is to define the system characteristics of reproduction of economic interests of actors, substantiate the possibility of its evolutionary and revolutionary development and the nonlinearity of its development in dynamics. The article justifies the main characteristics of the system of reproduction of economic interests. It is proved that in this system stability and variability are complementarily combined as integrated mechanisms of its development in statics and dynamics, assurance of its self-organization and self-restoration, quantitative and qualitative transformation. In its static state, there prevail characteristics of steadiness and leaning towards stability and constancy. In the dynamic state, the main characteristic is variability of the system of reproduction of economic interests, which determines / reacts to the processes of transformation and development of its constituent subsystems, potential opportunities, preferences and economic behavior of actors (changes in the endogenous environment), institutions and establishments, constraints and stabilizers (changes in the exogenous environment). The model of dynamic development of the system for reproduction of economic interests is proposed, the phases of its evolutionary and revolutionary development are substantiated.
Keywords: reproduction, economic interests, system, economic behavior, economic aspirations, formation and realization of economic interests.

The urgency of unification and systematization of the main interpretations of economic growth as a means of choosing and using certain management solutions under specific production conditions is substantiated. Based on the construction of the Ishikawa diagram, the reasons and difficulties of the economic growth of enterprises are graded. The conditions and factors of the conceptual apparatus of innovation activity under uncertainty are structured. It is shown that the complex application of iterative methods and methods of factor analysis provides a holistic perception of the dominant tendencies of economic development under conditions of dynamic changes in the external environment.
Keywords: innovations, economic development, economic growth, conceptual apparatus, reasons, trends.

Alternative Monetary Systems in the Context of Managing the National Economy (p. 351 - 362)

The aim of the article is to investigate alternative monetary systems, each of which can be an algorithm for managing the national economy. By analyzing, systematizing and summarizing the scientific works of both foreign and domestic scientists, it is established that money is a phenomenon capable of managing the socio-economic relations in the time and space development coordinates following the institutionalized functioning algorithms. There justified the informational nature of money, i.e., that money is artificial information, a peculiar way of understanding social and economic relations, since the monetary subsystem is algorithmizing social and economic relations and is a derivative of the functioning and development of the national economy. The effectiveness of the national currency depends on the built-in algorithms of its functioning, which are realized in the model of the national economy. The study reflects the basic variations of potential alternative monetary systems. In particular, world money, the issuers of which are highly developed countries; S. Gesell’s “free money”; S. Sharapov’s “absolute money”; money secured by commodity values; private money; virtual money — electronic money and crypto currency, etc. Given that the socio-economic system of Ukraine as a synergetic system have been in a state of bifurcation for a long time, the article considers and proposes the most effective way of the development and functioning of the monetary system in the context of a harmonious interrelations with the national economy in time and space coordinates by direct emission of money for innovative projects of development of the national economy. Prospects for further research are the trans-scientific paradigm of managing the national economy.
Keywords: monetary systems, creation of money, local money, electronic money, crypto currency, trans-scientific management paradigm.

Financial Sector Stability: Essence and Assessment (p. 363 - 368)

The article investigates approaches to the interpretation of the notion “financial stability” and the features of its assessing as an important instrument of macroprudential financial supervision. It is emphasized that the existing tools for assessing the financial sector stability have their advantages and disadvantages, which are defined by the authors. In the paper there applied the method of convolution of criteria to assess financial stability in Ukraine. The calculation of the composite indicator is based on values of financial soundness indicators determined by the IMF, which for the purpose of the research are divided into three groups. As a result the indicator of financial stability includes the components of capital adequacy, credit risk and liquidity. It allows using the regression procedure for evaluation of the influence of these components on financial stability of the country. The interpretation of the results indicate that raising the level of financial stability in Ukraine requires, first, improving approaches to managing credit risk, then increasing liquidity rates and, ultimately, improving the capital adequacy of financial intermediaries.
Keywords: financial stability, financial sector stability, financial soundness indicators, composite indicator of financial sector stability.

Methodological Bases for Describing Risks of the Enterprise Business Model in Integrated Reporting (p. 369 - 375)

The aim of the article is to substantiate the methodological bases for describing the business and accounting risks of an enterprise business model in integrated reporting for their timely detection and assessment, and develop methods for their leveling or minimizing and possible prevention. It is proposed to consider risks in the process of forming integrated reporting from two sides: first, risks that arise in the business model of an organization and should be disclosed in its integrated report; second, accounting risks of integrated reporting, which should be taken into account by members of the cross-sectoral working group and management personnel in the process of forming and promulgating integrated reporting. To develop an adequate accounting and analytical tool for disclosure of information about the risks of the business model and integrated reporting, their leveling or minimization, in the article a terminological analysis of the essence of entrepreneurial and accounting risks is carried out. The entrepreneurial risk is defined as an objective-subjective economic category that characterizes the probability of negative or positive consequences of economic-social-ecological activity within the framework of the business model of an enterprise under uncertainty. The accounting risk is suggested to be understood as the probability of unfavorable consequences as a result of organizational, methodological errors in the integrated accounting system, which present threat to the quality, accuracy and reliability of the reporting information on economic, social and environmental activities in integrated reporting as well as threat of inappropriate decision-making by stakeholders based on the integrated report. For the timely identification of business risks and maximum leveling of the influence of accounting risks on the process of formation and publication of integrated reporting, in the study the place of entrepreneurial and accounting risks in the business model of the enterprise is determined.
Keywords: entrepreneurial risk, accounting risk, business model, integrated reporting, economic-socio-ecological activity.

Analysis of the Expediency of Switching to Accounting Outsourcing (p. 392 - 397)

The aim of the article is to justify the methodology for analysis of the expediency of switching to accounting outsourcing. Based on considering scientific papers, approaches to analyzing the expediency of switching to accounting outsourcing are generalized; special attention is paid to analyzing transaction costs of accounting outsourcing, which under current conditions are one of the defining quantitative criteria for choosing this form of organization of accounting. The choice of the type of accounting outsourcing (full or partial) for various groups of enterprises (micro-enterprises, small and medium-sized, large ones) is justified. There determined the sequence of analyzing the expediency of switching to accounting outsourcing that implies identification of the areas of accounting for transferring; selection of an outsourcer; assessment of risks associated with reliability of the outsourcer. Prospects for further research are the issue of analyzing the effectiveness of outsourcing as a form of organization of accounting.
Keywords: accounting outsourcing, outsourcer, risk.

International Comparisons: Issues of Methodology and Practice (p. 398 - 404)

The article discusses the methodology and organization of statistical observation of the level of countries’ economic development. The theoretical basis of international comparisons is singled out and on its basis the comparative evaluation of inconsistency of theoretical positions and the reasons of differences of GDP growth is carried out. Based on the complexity of the formation of homogeneous data sets in order to obtain correct comparison results, a general scheme for the relationship between the theoretical base of international comparisons and PPP constraints is defined. The possibility of obtaining a single measurement of the indicators of national economies based on the existing sampling errors, measurement uncertainties and classification errors is considered. The emphasis is placed on combining the work using the ICP and CPI with the aim of achieving comparability of data in the territorial and temporal cross-section. Using the basic characteristics of sustainable economic growth, long-term prospects for changing the ranking positions of countries with different levels of income are determined. It is shown that the clarity and unambiguity of the theoretical provisions is the defining condition for the further process of data collection and formation of correct analytical conclusions.
Keywords: international comparisons, System of National Accounts, Purchasing Power Parity, consumer prices, methodology of statistics.

Management of Housing and Public Services of a City: the System and Simulation Approach (p. 405 - 415)

The article is dedicated to the development of models for management of housing and communal services of a city on the basis of the system approach and simulation modeling. A review of the existing models of urban systems is carried out, their advantages and disadvantages are shown. With the use of the methods of simulation and scenario modeling, a simulation model for management of housing and communal services of a city has been developed, which makes it possible to predict the dynamics of the main socio-economic indicators of development of a city. On the basis of the model, the forecast indicators were simulated according to various scenarios for distributing financial resources for the renovation and maintenance of housing facilities of a city. The main criterion for effectiveness of the scenarios is the level of housing provision for the population. The models built can be used for making managerial decisions by local government authorities as well as in elaborating programs for the urban social and economic development.
Keywords: housing and communal services, management model, system approach, housing provision, decision making, simulation model, experiment, system dynamics.

Analytical Support for Selecting the Best Investment Project in the Presence of Fuzzy Data (p. 416 - 423)

The article is dedicated to the problem of optimal choice in the field of real investments in case of fuzzy estimates of financial and economic parameters. The general methodological basis of the research is an integrated approach to solving decision-making problems under conditions of uncertainty, conflict, and risk generated by them, based on the game theory, proposed by R. I. Trukhayev. In recent decades, it has been actively developed in papers by the followers of the scientific school of riskology under the leadership of V. V. Vitlinsky. One of the system-forming components of the above integration and game methodology is the classifier of information situations (there singled out seven of them). In this case, the description of possible states of the economic environment by a fuzzy set (a subset) corresponds to the seventh information situation. An attempt was made to develop a methodical apparatus for the task of selecting the best investment project from a variety of alternative projects in the presence of fuzzy data. As a result, a model based on the use of convolutions of local criteria is formulated. In accordance with the accepted methodological guidelines, the structure of the generalized (integral) indicator of the economic attractiveness (efficiency) of real investment provides for three hierarchical levels: 1) the level of detailed criteria in terms of partial criteria (financial effect, profitability, payback period), 2) the level of partial criteria, 3) the level presenting the very generalized indicator. In the basic version of the proposed model, among the possible techniques (methods) for aggregating indicators detailing the aspects of fuzzy estimates of partial criteria, the preference is given to the method by which they are joined by a combined, additive and multiplicative convolution.
Keywords: investment project, optimal choice, uncertainty, fuzziness, risk, convolution of criteria.

Autonomy of the European Higher Education System: Characteristic Features of the Clusters (p. 424 - 429)

The aim of this study is the formation of clusters in terms of autonomy with the identification of their representatives and the formation of the main indicators (options) of development. The article singles out five homogeneous groups in terms of development of autonomy of the higher education system, and analyzes their main characteristics. To study the specific features of each group, representative countries are identified for each of them, including the higher education systems of Norway, Italy, Finland, Poland and France. Based on the analysis of the representatives, the dominants in the development of each autonomy dimension are defined. A comparative analysis of the autonomy of the system of higher education of the representative countries was carried out, which showed that autonomy of the higher education system is a multidimensional phenomenon, and one cannot say that only autonomy can provide advantages in the competitive struggle in the market of educational services.
Keywords: higher education system, autonomy, clusters, representatives, universities, financial autonomy, organizational autonomy, staffing autonomy, academic autonomy.

Assessment of Logistics Risk using Collective Artificial Intelligence (p. 430 - 436)

In substantiating management decisions in logistics, there can be used various economic and mathematical methods and models for quantitative risk assessment constructed with the help of a variety of instruments. Due to the increase in the processing power of computer equipment, economic and mathematical models become more complex, more precise, and the range of modeling tools expands. The current promising area in mathematical modeling is collective artificial intelligence, with the help of which it is possible to effectively solve weakly structured, multi-criteria, multi-purpose, complex economic problems. The mathematical model of the bat algorithm, the basic rules and steps of its functioning are presented, the application of the bat algorithm to solve the multi-index transport problem in the formulation of which the logistics risk is taken into account is shown, and the way to assess the logistics risk using the results of the functioning of the bat algorithm is shown.
Keywords: logistics risk, collective artificial intelligence, bat algorithm, multi-index distribution problem.

Reproduction of Forest Biodiversity: Ecological and Economic Bases and Mechanisms (p. 444 - 452)

It is proved that the reproduction of forest biodiversity under current economic conditions depends on the formation of appropriate mechanisms that will allow to include the priorities of conservation and enhancement of forest vegetation and faunal resources in the range of priorities of permanent forest users and other entities involved in forest exploitation activities. It is established that the expanded reproduction of forest biodiversity is directly related to the increase in the scale of forest reproduction, reduction of forest areas, fires, and intensification of forest protection from pests and diseases. It is justified that the formation of mechanisms for reproduction of forest biodiversity should be based on the creation of a modern system for monitoring forest vegetation and faunal resources, as well as on clear identification of sources of financial support for projects to increase and preserve biodiversity potential.
Keywords: biodiversity, mechanisms, financial security, permanent forest users, institutional prerequisites, nature reserve fund.
