The most important factor of the global economy development is its digitalization. The degree of introduction of technologies determines the overall level of national economy competitiveness. In this context, the research studies modern approaches to the definition of the digital economy and analyzes the digital economy development of the Eurasian Economic Union (the EAEU) countries. Therefore, the article, first, characterizes the features and challenges of the digital economy as a new socio-economic system. Second, it investigates the development of digital economy in the EAEU countries by analyzing the statistical data and indices and identifies the potential of the EAEU countries in this field. Specifically, a rating assessment is made based on the E-Government Development Index, the E-participation Index, the ICT Development Index, the Network Readiness Index, and the Global Cybersecurity Index. The research has showed that there are currently conditions for the development of the digital economy of the EAEU countries and the strengthening of cooperation between them in this field. The advantages of Russia are not total, and Belarus, Kazakhstan and Armenia have the best result in a number of indicators among the EAEU countries. In 2017 the “Main Directions for Implementing the Digital Agenda of the Eurasian Economic Union Until 2025” were approved by the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council. This document includes the following directions: digital transformation of economic sectors and cross-sectoral transformation, digital transformation of the goods markets, services, capital and labor, digital transformation of management processes by integration processes, the development of digital infrastructure and ensuring the security of digital processes. In addition, a number of projects aimed at creating a single digital space are being implemented. This article extends the knowledge about the digital economy development of the EAEU countries, their potential in this area in terms of the implementation of the joint digital agenda.

Subject. The COVID-19 pandemic brought IT companies to the leadership positions in terms of many aspects, as they contribute to a new reality and the development of digital economy. It also catalyzed the emergence of large ecosystems among financial institutions and technological giants. The M&A market mainly starts to shape global processes of the global economy digitalization, urging to scientifically comprehend the processes. Objectives. We conduct the critical analysis of the way the M&A market influences the digitalization of the global economy. Methods. Studying the M&A in the Fintech and Techfin segments, we applied methods of analysis, comparison and systematization of the information. Results. We revealed key trends in digital M&A deals, describe the impact and development of such processes in the Russian practice. Conclusions and Relevance. Every year M&A deals in the financial sectors and among IT corporations generates and raises over USD 250 billion in investment, thus making almost a 20-percent contribution to a growth in the digital economy. We found some understudies risks arising from digital M&A deals, such as deal planning risks synergy assessment risks, high volatility risks associated with prices for new companies, compliance risks, digital inequality risk and new social risks. Considering the Russian specifics and predominant positions of the banking sector, the digital transformation in Russia is noted to take place through the FinTech sector gaining momentum. To accelerate the digital constituent, it is reasonable to take the following efforts: introducing the digital Ruble as announced by the Bank of Russia, outlining a programs for supporting and encouraging national IT companies to develop non-banking payment systems and accelerate the digital transformation, connecting not only credit institutions, but also digital developers to the quick payment system of the Bank of Russia.

The subject of the research is the challenges of the digital economy for the employment sector in Russia. The need to reduce costs in the face of a deteriorating situation in the global economy is a factor in accelerating the digital transformation of employment in the country. The transformation is carried out through the automation of the main business processes, as well as through the development of platform employment formats. Specific features of the process of digital transformation of employment form the shape of the development of the Russian labor market in the post- Soviet period. Its main factor was the country’s entry into the global system of division of labor, which led to the formation of the modern structure of employment. The economy of Russia, recognized as raw material, turned out to be “commercial” in terms of employment, since it was this industry that created the bulk of jobs during that period. The commerce sector, which had high growth potential in the early 1990s in Russia, provided jobs for all those labor resources that were released from the industry. However, at the moment this source has been exhausted. Digitalization threatens the most labor-intensive sectors of the Russian economy. Commerce turns out to be the first industry to undergo automation and digitalization of jobs. At the same time, the most massive professions (accountants, bank employees, HR specialists, salesmen, cashiers, couriers, security guards, secretaries, packers, call center workers, drivers) are under the threat of “disappearance”, while new ones in demand by the market are more likely “unique” and they are mostly associated with robotization, digitalization and biotechnology. The unmet demand for these professions is a reflection of the complexities of training highly qualified interdisciplinary specialists and not a physical shortage of labor resources, and this is a serious challenge for the vocational education system. The study aims to gain a deeper understanding of the processes taking place in the social and labor sphere in Russia, to create a conceptual basis for the development of a socio-economic policy of the state that adequately responds to the challenges of the digitalization of the economy.

Целями основания Евразийского экономического союза (ЕАЭС) было создание условий для стабильного развития экономик государств членов союза в интересах повышения жизненного уровня их населения, стремление к формированию единого рынка товаров, услуг, капитала и трудовых ресурсов, всесторонняя модернизация, кооперация и повышение конкурентоспособности национальных экономик государств членов союза в условиях глобальной экономики. Цель исследования проанализировать состояние овощеводства и обеспеченность овощами населения стран членов Евразийского экономического союза в составе Республик Армения, Беларусь, Казахстан, Кыргызской Республики и Российской Федерации. По итогам проведенного анализа установлено, что в период 20132017 годов посевные площади овощных культур в ЕАЭС выросли на 7,7 и превысили 1 млн га. В 2018 году валовой сбор овощей увеличился на 13 до 24,1 млн т. При этом более 62 овощей производится в хозяйствах населения и 22 в КФХ, что говорит о мелкотоварном характере производства и низкой товарности продукции в ЕАЭС. Лидер по производству овощей на душу населения Армения (324 кг/чел.), наименьшее значение в России 111 кг/чел., среднее по ЕАЭС 131 кг/чел. Урожай овощных культур увеличился во всех государствах членах союза, за исключением Армении, где этот показатель максимальный в рамках союза 286 кг/га. Объем импорта свежих овощей из третьих стран в период 20142017 годах снизился на 16,8 в натуральном выражении и на 33,4 до 1,8 млрд в денежном исчислении, что обусловлено введением продуктового эмбарго и снижением объема импорта в Россию практически в два раза. Взаимная торговля (по экспорту) свежими овощами увеличилась на 36,4 до 241 млн . Около 77 объема взаимной торговли приходится на поставки из Беларуси, при этом более 90 объема взаимной торговли овощами направлены на рынок России. Одной из мер по поддержке и развитию отрасли овощеводства могут стать: снижение доли посредников в потребительской цене на овощи, строительство тепличных комплексов для производства отечественных овощей в несезонный период и овощехранилищ и др.The objectives of founding the Eurasian economic Union (EAEU) was the creation of conditions for stable development of the economies of the member States of the Union to improve the living standards of their populations, the desire to create a common market of goods, services, capital and labor resources, comprehensive modernization, cooperation and competitiveness of national economies of member States of the Union in the global economy. The purpose of the study is to analyze the state of vegetable production and the availability of vegetables for the population of the member States of the Eurasian economic Union in the Republics of Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic and the Russian Federation. According to the results of the analysis, it was found that in the period 20132017, the acreage of vegetable crops in the EAEU increased by 7.7 and exceeded 1 million hectares. In 2018, the gross harvest of vegetables increased by 13 to 24.1 million tons. at the same time, more than 62 of vegetables are produced in households and 22 in farms, which indicates the small-scale nature of production and low marketability of products in the EAEU. The leader in the production of vegetables per capita is Armenia (324 kg/person), the lowest value in Russia is 111 kg/person, the average for the EEU is 131 kg/person. The yield of vegetable crops increased in all member States of the Union, with the exception of Armenia, where this figure is the maximum within the Union 286 kg/ha. The volume of imports of fresh vegetables from third countries in the period 20142017 decreased by 16.8 in physical terms and by 33.4 to 1.8 billion in monetary terms, due to the introduction of the food embargo and a decrease in the volume of imports to Russia almost twice. Mutual trade (by export) in fresh vegetables increased by 36.4 to 241 million. About 77 of the volume of mutual trade comes from Belarus, while more than 90 of the volume of mutual trade in vegetables is directed to the Russian market. One of the measures to support and develop the vegetable industry can be: reducing the share of intermediaries in the consumer price of vegetables, construction of greenhouse complexes for the production of domestic vegetables in the off-season period and vegetable stores, etc.

The implementation of the national project «Digital Economy» requires the focused efforts of all interested parties and makes special demands on regional management systems. This requires improving the practice of managing digital transformation processes in the regions in order to improve the quality of life of people and dynamic development. The article discusses the conditions for the formation and development of the digital economy in the Southern Federal District (SFD). It is noted that the digital economy provides great opportunities for development, increases the level of information openness and accessibility, reduces bureaucratic barriers, but on the other hand, digitalization processes are associated with inevitable difficulties, uncertainty and risks. It is established that in all subjects there are necessary program documents for digital transformation. The strategic documents adopted in the Southern Federal District are aimed at stimulating and developing digital technologies. The digital economy needs competent specialists, for this it is necessary to create conditions for training personnel, improve the education system, the labor market, create motivation systems for the development of the necessary competencies. In scientific studies, insufficient attention has been paid to the processes of the influence of digital changes on the innovative activity of regional actors. The article presents an analysis of various criteria that affect the possible development of the digital economy and the socio-economic development of the Southern Federal District. The analysis made it possible to identify prospects for the further development of the macroregion. The results of the study can be used in the development and adjustment of regional strategic programs for the development of digital society, as well as material for further theoretical and applied research in the development of digital processes in regional systems.

The Creation

Currently the Eurasian Economic Union defines its main tasks as the creation of an image of the significant center for the development of international trade, enhancement of mutually beneficial partnership with member states and other countries, the creation of new formats for international cooperation. At the present days the Eurasian Economic Union is filled with real economic content. Multilateral projects are being implemented, primarily in key sectors of the economy, that are energy and transport. In the long run, the formation of a monetary union is possible. Development of currency integration, as a component of economic unity, presupposes the process of implementing a coordinated policy of the EAEU countries, as well as the creation and functioning of the organizations performing interstate currency regulation. In the article the dynamics of the main economic indicators of the Eurasian Economic Union functioning is considered. The data on the trade turnover of the EAEU member countries for 2019 is provided. The main directions of EAEU cooperation with third countries and integration associations are revealed, with particular attention being paid to the creation of free trade zones with Vietnam and Singapore. In the context of the organization and functioning of interstate unions, each of the member states of such unions, while ensuring their own security, also needs to manage both the threats to the security of other partners that have an indirect adverse effect and the threats that directly impact the whole union. The directions of digital transformation of the economies of the Eurasian Economic Union member states are considered. The problematic aspects of its functioning are highlighted.
