To solve the problems of stimulating the development of innovative activity of domestic enterprises, a number of regulatory acts have been developed in Ukraine today that regulate relations in the sphere of investment in innovation. National legislation defines the following forms of investment of innovative activity: state (municipal) investment, commercial investment, social investment, foreign investment, general investment. In order to receive financial support, the subjects of innovation activity whose innovation projects are listed in the State Register of Innovation Projects shall submit to the State Innovation Financial-Credit Institution (its regional branches) innovative projects and all necessary documents, the list of which is determined by it. The subject of innovative activity, the innovative project of which has been competitively selected, may receive one or more types of financial support from the innovative financial-credit institution, depending on the competitive procedure established by the competitive procedure. Financial support for the implementation of innovative projects can be provided in the form of successive tranches as a result of monitoring the progress of project implementation.The analysis of the structure of state financing of innovation activity by types of economic activity of subjects of innovation in 2018 allows to determine the priority branch of chemical and petrochemical industry. Investing of own funds of subjects of innovative activity is realized through capital investments and financial investments. Structural analysis of sources of financing of innovative activity in Ukraine allows to distinguish the overwhelming share of own funds of the enterprises in the total volumes of financing of their innovative activity. But in the conditions of insufficient level of state support of innovative activity of enterprises and instability of their financial results, as the main source of own funds for investing, the role of financial and credit providing of investments by the subjects of the financial market significantly increases.

The article deals with the dependence of the competitiveness of industrial enterprises on the level of innovation activity. The essence and main characteristics of the competitive advantages of the enterprise from the point of view of innovative activity in the course of innovative activity are highlighted. One of the factors that can increase the competitiveness of business is the active use of innovative production technologies, which will ensure a continuous improvement of scientific, technical, industrial, financial and social activities in the context of changes in the institutional environment. The results of analytical research of priority sectors of Ukrainian economy from the point of view of innovative activity are presented. With the transition of the economy to the next technological institution, it is worth talking about the change of priority industries in the structure of industry - from low-processing with low added value to innovative high-tech and high-margin. As the first Ukrainian Business Innovation Index showed, only some companies are ready to invest in innovation and have a strategic vision. According to research, most companies are still not ready and do not plan to make fundamental changes in their business models in the near future. Innovation is limited to the introduction of new production technologies, automation of tasks, training of staff new skills, changing approach to marketing and communications. The necessity of systematic support of innovative activity is substantiated, the basic directions of optimization of structure of economy of Ukraine are allocated. The European vector of Ukraine gives a good chance to digitize the processes. In particular, for state-owned companies in areas such as energy and oil and gas, the prospect of digitalization has become the prospect of entering the European Union. However, without major changes to the regulatory system, government priorities, and extensive government-business cooperation, no real major changes can be expected. The issue is not only in the tax field or subsidization, but also in education, digital skills of the population. The necessity of updating the issue of development of high-tech sectors of the economy has been proved, which will increase the competitiveness of industrial enterprises. Given the trends identified, it is appropriate to emphasize the need to take concrete actions to change the structure of the economy, to increase exports of high-tech products, the creation of export-credit agencies, industrial parks.

The article notes that in modern conditions of the transitivity of the economy, the basic component of the mechanism for forming the foundations of sustainable development is to ensure the competitiveness of domestic goods and services in the national and international markets. For the purpose of analyzing the state, pressing problems and prospects of innovative development in Ukraine, quantitative and qualitative indicators of innovative activity have been investigated. It was revealed that during 2010-2019 there was a decrease in the number of organizations engaged in research activities and the number of employees engaged in research and development. It was found that, according to the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine, there is a tendency to an increase in expenditures (in million UAH) on research activities, but this was due to the depreciation of the hryvnia, because in dollar terms, there has been a decrease in the level of funding since 2014. It was revealed that in accordance with the ratings of the European Innovation Scoreboard 2020, Ukraine loses its positions every year – 34th place in 2014, 35th place during 2015-2018, 36th place in 2019 year and the penultimate 38th in 2020, ahead of only Romania. Taking into account the fact that the financial support of innovative activity in Ukraine is still very limited, in order to form the prerequisites for its increase, it is necessary to introduce a set of measures to mobilize existing and potential financial resources, including by attracting investments.

The practice of reforming macrosystems and attempts to transition from resource and industrial to digital economy showed that the lack of an institutional component increases information uncertainty, prevents the development of various forms of cooperation, increases the degree of risk in the implementation of exchange and contracting, causing an increase in economic, social and transactional costs, as well as higher prices for goods and services. The formation of institutional mechanisms of innovative development of the Russian Federation requires the development of appropriate scientific-methodological, regulatory and legal and information-analytical framework for effective regulation of the formation processes of high-tech economy, which is a pressing problem for our country. The paper identifies institutional factors, as well as areas to enhance and improve the effectiveness of innovation activities; established economic risks in an imperfect institutional environment; identified institutional components of the integration mechanism to ensure innovative economic development; proposed a methodological approach to assessing the quality of the institutional environment, as well as a diagnostic mechanism of its state.
