The influence of the shadow economy on the development of trade in the regions of Ukraine is investigated. The factors that reduce the utilization efficiency of trade capacity in the socio-economic development of Ukrainian regions are identified. The principal factors of expansion of the shadow economy in the trade sphere of Ukrainian regions are outlined. These include substantial fiscal burden on business, presence of regulatory problems, high level of markets monopolization, weak economic growth, population poverty, poor competences of local governments. The main negative consequences of shadow trade for the economy of numerous regions of Ukraine are considered, in particular the reduced innovative capacity of economic development, spread of corruption, deformation of business culture, decrease of goods quality and consumers’ safety, distortion of market information, impossibility of timely and adequate activity from public administration and local governments. Three probable effects from reducing the efficiency of utilization of the capacity of socio-economic development in Ukrainian regions because of shadowing in the trade sphere are described, namely the financial losses of state and local budgets caused by the decrease of tax payments, growing unemployment and illegal labor, and the shortage of business profits due to worsening investment climate and declining value of assets of trading companies. Proposals for prospective directions of the de-shadowing of the trade sphere are substantiated. Mechanisms for increasing the efficiency of utilization of trade capacity in the socio-economic development of Ukrainian regions are outlined. The priority means of solving existing problems include normalization of the status of an individual entrepreneur in the trade sphere; modernization of wholesale and retail trade infrastructure; creating the right conditions for the spread of e-commerce and non-cash payments for purchased goods.

The article discusses the objective need to use the world experience of forecasting and planning in the process of developing a "welfare state" as an effective model for the modern development of a socially oriented market economy. The denial and lack of planning and forecasting of the economy on the scale of the country can lead to such negative consequences as uncertainty of the benchmarks of social and economic development of society for the long term and the development of chaos in the country; priorities of the decision short-term and current problems before strategic tasks on which the future development of society depends; preservation of playback modes; incomplete and inefficient use of resources; the emergence of crisis situations, etc. The practice of the leading countries of the world and the results they get prove that planning and forecasting are objectively necessary tools for the development of the modern market economy. The experience of many countries of the world testifies to the effectiveness of the use of these tools of state regulation of national socio-economic development. Features of forecasting and planning are considered in the representative countries of three existing systems of planning and regulation in the world: North American (USA and Canada); Asian (Japan and South Korea); European (France and Sweden). The forecasting and planning tools are based on the intersection balance model, which involves the inclusion of market impact (equilibrium prices) to determine the proportions of the plan and reflects the dynamics of production links (processes of public reproduction) of the national economy for several years. In the 21st century, strategic planning for the effective development of the state's economy is a prerequisite for sustainable economic growth and the formation of a national model of "welfare state" on this basis. Today, developed (post-industrial) countries use planning and forecasting, which have established themselves as an objective and natural tool for the modern market economy, where the role of the state is based on indicative planning, which ensures the achievement of sustainable economic growth to improve the well-being of the nation.

The transition to market relations and the corresponding structural changes in economy influenced the formation of incomes, their use and distribution system. The largest share in the structure of monetary income of the population is wages; it has increased in recent years. At the same time, there occurred the decline in production in the process of market transformation economy and, as a consequence, forced underemployment and unemployment of a large part of the working population, lack legislative levers of influence on the regulation of the property process stratification of the population led to a decline in living standards, deepening its stratification by the level of cash income and distribution of property, the inability of the majority of the population to do savings, spreading the shadow of monetary income of citizens, hiding them from taxation. This led to a reduction in the effective demand of the population, narrowing the volume of domestic market, reducing opportunities for domestic investment resources and restraint of economic growth of the state. The country’s economic growth is observed from year to year, it directly depends on the welfare of the population and their income. Socio-economic development of the country is impossible without the participation of the population and accumulation of human capital, investment in it. Structural changes in Ukraine’s economy – human capital index, average income, migration processes, declining total population – have negative consequences for economic growth in the country as a whole. Therefore, there is an urgent need to study this issue, taking into account all possible prospects. The peculiarities of these indicators specify the development of any country, where one of the main macroeconomic goals is due to the need to outpace the growth of national income in comparison with the growth of the index of human capital and income of citizens. The economic development of the country concerns money and the increase of the general welfare of the population. The way to improve the better life and economic development of the country is possible taking into account the transformation processes, but achieving this involves solving a set of goals and objectives facing governments at all levels. Economic and social development of the oblasts of Ukraine seeks to be better today. The delimitation of oblasts is caused by the level of the average wage, as well as the total per capita income. The study of indicators of socio-economic development requires clear and precise actions on the part of the state and local self-government. The creation of development strategies for a certain period helps to improve the situation in the oblasts of Ukraine, but it is a temporary phenomenon that is not a managed system in some cases. Currently, there is a problem of economic development, social protection of low-income groups and health care, retirement-age people and so on. All human and civil rights are equal and interrelated, and therefore they must be equally protected by the state: human’s life and health, honour and dignity, inviolability and security are the highest social values (Article 3); free development of personality (Article 23) is determined by the Constitution of Ukraine. The study outlines the relationship and interdependence of local budget revenues from subsidies and subventions of the state budget, economic activity of the population, as well as the unemployment rate is an important indicator of the general state of the economy.

The article develops a mechanism for diagnosing crisis situations in the systems of socio-economic development of regions, the practical application of which allows to analyze the current state of regions to avoid negative consequences of crisis situations, prevent the crisis in time, forming a set of preventive measures to improve indicators of the country's efficiency. It is proved that the general socio-economic development of the country depends on regional development, so special attention is paid to this issue. However, regional development may have different strategies and directions, depending on the source data. It should be noted that in the formation of methods for assessing the effectiveness of socio-economic development of the region and the subsequent choice of effective methods of influencing the socio-economic development of the region it is necessary to objectively determine the priority direction of development of both country and region. Defining priorities in the socio-economic development of the region will allow to qualitatively determine preventive management measures. Many factors are considered in the formation of strategies and goal setting, such as the availability and specificity of natural resources, demographic situation, geographical location, production structure and specialization. The integral indicator of social and economic development of the country which gave the chance to reveal crisis situations in the country caused by a few external and internal factors is constructed in work. The current crisis situations were also confirmed by the indicators of the gross domestic product of the country. The share of each of the regions in the formation of GDP during periods of crisis in the country has been established. Among each of the considered years, which are defined as crisis years, the largest share in the formation of GDP is occupied by Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv and Kyiv regions. The mechanism of crisis diagnostics considered in the work allows to trace changes of influence of separate regions on formation of GDP. The mechanism also makes it possible to identify those regions that, in different circumstances, are in crisis and offer them a set of measures aimed at accelerating economic growth, including attracting foreign investment and creating new jobs. The result of such measures should be individual socio-economic development programs aimed at achieving regional and state goals, developed jointly with interested state and local authorities.

Market conditions force local governments to take actions directed to the development and improvement of competitiveness. The efficiency of municipalities is determined by the efficiency and dynamics of development of the entire economy. The financial situation is a component of the competitiveness and responsibility of local authorities for the socio-economic development of the commune. The aim of the article is to analyse the spatial disproportions of the financial situation of rural communes in relation to their competitiveness using the TOPSIS synthetic measure. The analysis was conducted in a system of 69 rural communes of the Świętokrzyskie province. To assess the financial situation, the following were used: own income, local taxes and fees, income from PIT and CIT, operating surplus, transfer income and EU funds, property (investment) expenses, as well as interest and debt expenses. The conducted research showed that in the analysed period of 2007–2017 communes were characterized by stable diversification of financial situation and competitiveness.
