A key element in ensuring effective public activity is the management of state financial resources and coordination of its financial flows. Given the rapid pace of innovative technologies development and the formation of the course of countries’ development towards global digitalization, there is a need to study the relationship between the level of innovative development of the country and its state financial management. This article summarizes the arguments and counterarguments within the scientific discussion on the place and prospects of state participation in the formation of the basis for innovative development. The main purpose of the study is to confirm the hypothesis about the functional links between the main components of budgetary resources and the level of innovative development of the country. In this regard, the array of input data is presented in the form of nine independent variables (regressors) and two dependent variables (regressands). Four of the independent variables denote individual budget revenue items, and five – expenditure, while the dependent variables (regressands) identify the level of innovation development countries. The study of the impact of state financial resources on the level of innovative development of the country is carried out in the following logical sequence: the formation of an array of input data; formalization of functional relationships between variables by constructing two-panel multifactor regression models with random effects and interpretation of the obtained results. The object of the study is nine CIS countries and their closest neighbors. The study period covered 2011-2018. The study empirically confirms the above hypothesis, which is evidenced by the following identified dependences. The level of innovation development (presented by the Innovation index) depends on changes in the structure of the state budget, in particular in direct proportion to the Compensation of employees and inversely in proportion to the items Revenue and Other expense. At the same time, the change in research and development expenditures of the country is directly proportional to the items Compensation of employees and Subsidies and other transfers, and inversely proportional to item Tax revenue and expense. The results of the study could be useful for public authorities that provide public financial management and seek to optimize activities to support innovative development. Keywords: state financial management, government expenses, government revenues, innovative development, CIS countries, regression analyses.

Nowadays insurance industry has huge innovation potential. Several key vectors for developing the concept of insurance tech include machine learning, business analytics, consumer protection rules, Big Data, artificial intelligence, neural networks, blockchain, and telematics. Technological innovations become widespread only when a community that supports them emerges, and COVID-19 has rapidly accelerated the changes that were already in full swing to a greater extent than any other factor. COVID-19 has helped reinforce the story and illustrate the results that technologies achieve on a large scale. Modern marketing and management approaches in insurance are viewed as an activity to optimize and control the insurance company's innovation and marketing activities. It would allow taking a strategically advantageous position in the insurance market. There are two kinds of insurance marketing: structural and commodity. Structural marketing could help to solve the problem of the economic efficiency of the activity of insurance companies. Commodity marketing helps to improve financial activity and, as a result, to increase profitability. This article summarizes the arguments and counterarguments within the scientific discussion on the place and prospects marketing and management in insurance (strategies, functions, principles) in the context of key innovation metrics. The study's primary purpose is to confirm the hypothesis about the functional link between the level of innovative development of the country and key insurance determinants as drivers for transformation in marketing strategies of insurance companies. In this regard, the array of input data is presented in the form of seven independent variables (regressors), six of which denote innovation measures, one is control variable, and five dependent variables (regressands), which identify the insurance sector. The study of the impact of innovation metrics on the insurance sector of the country in the article is carried out in the following logical sequence: 1) the formation of an array of input data; selection of relevant indicators using Principal Component Analysis; 2) formalization of functional relationships between variables by constructing five-panel Multifactor regression models with Random Effects; and 3) interpretation of the obtained results. Seventeen countries of Central and Eastern Europe were selected as the object of the study for the period from 2004 till 2019. The study empirically confirms the above hypothesis, which is evidenced by the following identified dependences. Key insurance determinants depend on innovation fluctuations. The most significant positive influence on the dependent variables is exercised by the Innovations index, Research and development expenditure, and Patent applications by residents. The study results could be helpful for insurance companies that provide new insurance technologies and seek to optimize activities to support innovative development. The main directions of marketing and management in insurance should be considered from two positions applying new technologies in insurance marketing and introducing new insurance products or services.

Abstract Objective: To test the null hypothesis that third-order measurements are not correlated to lingual incisor features seen on radiographs. Material and Methods: The lateral headfilms of 38 untreated, norm-occlusion subjects without incisor abrasions or restorations were used for third-order measurements of upper and lower central incisors and assessment of the inclination of four sites suitable for lingual bracket placement with reference to the occlusal plane perpendicular. Lingual sections were determined by the tangents at the incisal fossa (S1), at the transition plateau between incisal fossa and the cingulum (S2), by a constructed line reaching from the incisal tip to the cingulum (S3), and by a tangent at the cingulum convexity (S4). Third-order angles were also assessed on corresponding dental casts using an incisor inclination gauge. Regression analysis was performed using the third-order measurements of both methods as the dependent variables and the inclination of the lingual enamel sections (S1, S2, S3, S4) as the independent variables. Results: The null hypothesis was rejected. For the most common bracket application sites located on the lingual shovel (S1 and S2), third-order inclination changes of 0.4–0.7 degrees are expected for each degree of change in the inclination of the lingual surface. The impact of bracket placement errors on third-order angulation is similar between sections S1 and S2 and the cingulum convexity (S4). Section S3 proved to be least affected by interindividual variation. Conclusion: The third-order measurements are correlated to lingual incisor features. Accordingly, third-order changes resulting from variation in lingual bracket placement can be individually predicted from radiographic assessments.

The subject of the study is to substantiate classifications of the factors of innovation development of the industry: according to the priority, traditional, barrier, according to the hierarchical level of innovation, the nature of supply demand for innovation, the peculiarity of the influence of factors on the market environment, the influence of factors on innovation localization, importance of innovations, the effect of innovation, nature of the impact, the power of influence, the type of competition, and other classifications of factors of innovation development of the industry. The need to intensify the development of Ukrainian industry in an innovative way requires the identification of the impact on these processes of various factors. To group these influences, the assessment of these factors should be done in the context of separate classes. For this purpose, it is necessary to develop a classification of innovative factors of industrial development. The purpose of the paper is to investigate and systematize the defining conditions for the activation of innovative development in the industrial sphere. The following methods were used in the work: dialectical method of scientific knowledge, analysis and synthesis, comparative, as well as the method of data generalization. It is proved that the complex non-use of these classifications for the substantiation of innovative development of the industry will improve the quality of planning and forecasting documentation and provisions of industrial policy. The applied meaning arising from the criteria for the classification of factors is based on their specific spatiotemporal and situational application, in particular, in conditions of imperfect competition. The classification of innovative factors of industrial development according to their priority is given. In this classification, the priority is determined by the importance and relevance of innovative industry development tasks on the basis of conclusions made as a result of the literature review. Summarizing the factors of innovation development in the barrier classification allows us to distinguish three aggregated groups of factors: socio-political and managerial, socio-economic, and financial. Our socio-economic analysis of innovative development factors of industry also allowed us to identify the following their classification attributes: the hierarchical level of innovation implementation, the character of demand for innovation, the nature of the impact on the market environment, the type of impact, the time horizon of action, impact on the area of innovation localization, the economic essence of innovation, the nature of the significance of innovation, innovation effect, the nature of effective impact, the power of influence, the type of competition.

Power sharing and delegation is politics in nature. The economic side appears on the regional budget planning and realisation. It is the mechanics and the setting of general policy, priority, and plafond of temporary budget. The latent fiscal gap occurs when revenues collected are lesser than expenditures spent, vice versa. Higher portion of expenditures posted as basic allocation has not been coped well with steady regional income. Supports in terms of better capability and capacity to collect regional revenues appear to be non-existent and meaningless, but the resource-rich regions. Even so, the central government appears to have big and deep impacts on the definition of taxable objects and types, and local retributions. This study is to seek which financial performance indicators that can be well-predicted by a numerous variables and indicators forming the regional budgets (APBD) of 34 provinces in Indonesia in 2018. The data was collected from DJPK website in early May 2019. The research method is quantitative descriptive in nature, and using both the OLS regression and determinant regression analysis. Based on the research of recent studies, a numerous financial performance indicators were derived as dependent variables, along with the variables forming the regional budgets of 34 provinces in Indonesia as independent variables. Sixteen dependent variables were set, whilst the 48 independent variables comprised of 4 groups, that is 4 variables of regional specific (r_#), 23 variables of revenues (y_#), 9 variables of expenditures (c_#), and 12 variables of finance/fiscal (f_#). Upon the results of OLS linear regression, 3 variables of financial performance appeared to be the most significant and appealing than the rest. They were independence (k_08), the ratio of DAU in TKDD to the DAU Formula (k_16), dan decentralisation (k_10). On the contrary, 3 variables of financial performance appeared to have no determining variables. They were PAD growth (k_14), fiscal soundness and regional financial management (k_03), dan effectiveness (k_11). These 3 variables were a part of 4 variables having the least adjusted R2, with infrastructure (k_04) as the remaining one. The heteroscedastic nature that appears in the k_14 estimation equation has suggested that k_14 fails to be used as the benchmark and reference of financial performance of regional budgeting, at least in its definition and operationalisation in this study and research. Likewise the usage of f_07 variable, the fiscal gap 1, the difference of DAU Formula with basic allocation (in basic data source).

Abstract. The article identifies the impact of sources of funding for innovation in the country on economic growth through economic and mathematical modeling and construction of regression equations between GDP and funding for innovation and research costs with the construction of a multifactor regression equation. As a result of regression analysis, it was found that the most significant impact on the resulting indicator have such variables as capital investment from state and local budgets and research and development costs. Using the method of extrapolation, GDP growth was forecast for 4 years, and it was found that capital investment from own funds of enterprises and organizations will grow by 24,08%, capital investment from state and local budgets by 28,42%, research costs and development by 22,76% for the analyzed period.Subject to compliance with the projected values of the financial determinants of the innovative component of increasing the country’s competitiveness, the volume of estimated GDP in actual prices for the forecast period will increase by 936039,011 million UAH or 23,26%. The reasons for the low level of the state of the innovation sphere in the domestic economy are outlined: underdevelopment of the market of innovative products due to low indicators of development of integration processes in it; weakness of relations that determine the innovative nature of economic development; low motivation of the industrial sector in innovative development; the supply of technological innovations created by national industrial companies and research institutions in the domestic market is limited; high cost of development and implementation, high interest rates on the investment portfolio, a long payback period, the focus of financial institutions on the issuance of «short loans», usually consumer loans for technological renewal of industrial sectors. To resolve such contradictions, the system-forming factors of a set of measures to intensify integration processes in the innovation sphere of Ukraine were proposed. Systematized foreign experience in scientific, technical and innovation policy, as well as commercialization of innovations, taking into account which proposed conceptual guidelines for organizational and financial support of the effectiveness of the innovative component of competitiveness: economic mechanisms (direct budget investments; preferential lending; integration with foreign institutions; financial activities; increase the share of GDP aimed at financing innovation processes, development of an effective set of measures to attract international grants and household savings as investments to implement the concept of innovative development of the country’s economy, etc.); organizational mechanisms (formation of integration clusters using the potential of education, business, government, public; state assistance in the development of innovation infrastructure, etc.). Keywords:innovations, financial support of innovative development, country competitiveness, innovation system, cluster, regression, correlation, integration processes.
