Abstract

Introduction. The concept of inclusive growth is one of the most effective modern theories of socio-economic development. Given the problems in the Ukrainian economy and the lack of financial resources, in-depth research is needed to find mechanisms for financing projects and programs for inclusive growth, to adapt them to the conditions of decentralization and practical use in local government. The purpose of the research is to substantiate the feasibility of implementing the concept of inclusive development and to reveal the features of mechanisms for financing inclusive development programs to intensify the processes of socio-economic growth in Ukraine under decentralization. Results. The essence of the inclusive type of development is revealed and the necessity of its introduction in Ukraine is substantiated. The legislative bases of inclusive development in Ukraine are analysed. It is determined that the search for financial resources for the implementation of programs and projects aimed at achieving certain goals remains a problematic issue. Four main mechanisms for financing inclusive development projects and programs have been identified and characterized: budgetary; investment; credit; grant. The analysis of the financing of development programs for the period of decentralization is carried out. The structure of revenues of local budgets of Ukraine was assessed and it was established that tax revenues were of the greatest fiscal importance among own revenues. In order to create additional sources of attracting resources to local budgets, it is proposed to adopt the practice of self-taxation of residents of territorial communities. Conclusions. In order to ensure sufficient funding for inclusive development programs and projects, it is necessary to use all possible mechanisms to attract funds from local and state budgets, business entities, and international organizations. The main mechanisms for financing local socio-economic development programs are budget, investment, credit, and grant. The practice of self-taxation of residents of territorial communities can be an important source of additional resources for financing inclusive development programs.
