The article is devoted to the review of the current state, problems and directions of improving the activities of banking and microfinance organizations (MFIs) in the lending market. The methods of attracting customers to obtain loans are analyzed and the international experience of banking and non-banking organizations in the field of lending to the population is investigated. It was concluded that the economic development of the state not only implies, but also requires the development of market lending mechanisms that can not only provide banking institutions with a profit, but also ensure stable economic growth. In addition, it should be noted that there is a different focus on research in this area, as well as the lack of a unified approach to determining directions for improving lending competitiveness, and the mismatch between the chosen strategies for the real situation that has developed in Ukraine. It has been established that the largest share in the lending market belongs to consumer loans, classic loans to individuals, when borrowed funds are taken to pay for various necessities of life. At the same time, the presence of negative trends and factors affecting the stability and stability of the banking system has been identified, which makes it necessary to study and constantly monitor the status of consumer lending in order to identify potential problems. It is stated that at present, to expand the client market of credit institutions, it is necessary not only to expand the range of items provided under credit, but also to disseminate information and promote these services on the market. The main ways to attract customers to obtain loans and events that are actively used by credit institutions around the world are identified. The opinion of leading experts on the need to address a number of tasks to ensure the rights and legitimate interests of borrowers in the field of consumer lending is recorded. The principles of building a hierarchical system for working with loan applications are outlined. Keywords: lending, banking institutions, macro-financial organizations, borrower, money market, profitability, interest.

Since COVID-19 was first detected in China in 2019, governments around the world have imposed strict measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus, which substantially impacted peo-ple’s life. Consumers’ food consumption behavior has also changed accordingly with reduced gro-cery shopping frequency, replaced in-person grocery shopping with online shopping, and increased valuation on food. In this paper, we aim to investigate the change in Chinese consumers’ food con-sumption and their willingness to pay (WTP) for vegetables and meat, using a dataset with 1206 online samples collected between February and March 2020. Consumers’ WTP for vegetables and meat is estimated using a double-bounded dichotomous contingent valuation design, and factors affecting their WTPs are also investigated. Results show that consumers have a higher WTP for these food products during the pandemic, and their WTP is positively affected by their anticipated duration of the COVID-19, their online shopping shares, their direct exposure to infected patients, their gender, and their income. These results imply that the food industry shall try to develop online market channels as consumers are willing to share the costs, while lower-income consumers may not be able to meet their food needs with prices increased beyond their WTP and thus may call for the government’s support.

Ozone is recognized as an antimicrobial agent for vegetables storage, washing, and processing. This strong disinfectant is now being used in the food industry. In this review, the chemical and physical properties of ozone, its generation, and factors affecting ozone processing efficiency were explained as well as recent regulatory developments in the food industry. By then selecting three vegetables, we show that ozone avoids and controls biological growth on vegetables, keeping their attractive appearance and sensorial qualities, assuring nutritional characteristics’ retention and maintaining and increasing the shelf-life. In liquid solution, ozone can be used to disinfect processing water and vegetables, and in gaseous form, ozone helps to sanitize and preserve vegetables during storage. The multifunctionality of ozone makes it a promising food processing agent. However, if ozone is improperly used, it causes some deleterious effects on products, such as losses in their sensory quality. For an effective and a safe use of ozone, specific treatment conditions should be determined for all kinds of vegetables. In a last step, we propose highlighting the different essential characteristics of ozone treatment in order to internationally harmonize the data relating to the treatments carried-out.
