In the international ranking of ease of doing business Doing business-2020, Ukraine has taken 64th place, rising by 7 positions and improving 5 of the 10 key indicators. According to general statistics, there is a positive trend of growth of economic entities in recent years, but it does not provide growth in sales, this growth is accounted for by enterprises. It is self-employed entrepreneurs, who are the driving force of any country's economy, a means of overcoming the problems of low solvency and unemployment in the country. In the structure of economic entities in Ukraine by type of economic activity, the number of wholesale and retail trade enterprises and enterprises engaged in information and telecommunication activities is growing year after year, but the number of construction enterprises, transport enterprises, industrial enterprises, and agricultural enterprises is decreasing. The analysis of the cost structure by economic elements of Ukrainian enterprises showed that in general the largest share in the cost structure of business entities in Ukraine for the period from 2012 to 2019 is occupied by material costs. That is, the production of products (goods, services) is material-intensive and the country does not introduce innovative technologies. Due to the industrialization of the real sector of the economy, especially in manufacturing, the country has lost the complex types of production that provided the value chain. The result of such losses was the loss of entire sectors of complex exports and the stagnation of the real sector of the economy. As a result of provided research, it can be noted that there are certain problems in the country for the development of entrepreneurship, which is a special type of activity. The state should support small and medium-sized businesses in the country because entrepreneurship itself is a powerful "locomotive" that will make it possible to ensure proper growth of production and welfare. The prospect of further research should be the study of business engineering as a modern management technology that can significantly accelerate the reform of the domestic economy on a market basis.

Development of municipal-private partnership in the system of municipal crediting of Ukraine

The object of research is the processes of formation and development of municipal-private partnership (MPP) in the system of communal lending in Ukraine. One of the most problematic places of the object of study is the lack of a unified definition of MPP in the scientific economic literature and current legislation. In the course of the study, general scientific and special methods are used, namely: abstract-logical to generalize the theoretical foundations of the emergence and development of MPP; analysis, synthesis, logical generalization to substantiate the prerequisites for development, the subject-objective characteristics of MPP, the means of increasing the effectiveness of such a partnership. Systematization of the conceptual and categorical apparatus with respect to the definition of the MPP essence allows to conclude that there is no single definition in the scientific literature. The author has provided his own MPP interpretation as a tool to ensure the development of long-term mutually beneficial cooperation of local governments with business structures and the public. With the help of MPP, a policy of regional and municipal socio-economic development is being implemented, and infrastructure and other projects that are socially important for the development of territorial units are co-financed.A systematic analysis of the problems of the development of small private entrepreneurship in Ukraine allowed to justify the direction of their elimination. The obtained results allow to determine the specific features of the MPP and its distinctive features from the state-private partnership (SPP). It is established that attracting private investors requires the development of an appropriate regulatory framework, restoring confidence in the instruments of local loans and the activities of local governments. To do this, it is necessary to ensure the openness and transparency of the MPP implementation projects by creating online platforms through which private investors can receive the necessary information. The construction of the scheme of the constituent elements of the MPP functioning allows to establish the subject-object composition, to determine the prerequisites for the development of such a partnership and its effectiveness. Thanks to this, it is possible to obtain a budgetary, social, environmental effect at the level of administrative-territorial units and the development of a system of communal lending in Ukraine.
