The social and economic transformations taking place in Ukraine are accompanied by the expansion of functions of the state authorities and local self-government. This predetermines the search for sources of formation of budgetary resources on the background of permanent growth of the volume and directions of their spending and practical application of debt instruments. The purpose of the study lies in evaluating of the practice of carrying out public borrowings and in developing proposals concerning its improvement in the context of minimizing threats to government debt security. The economic essence, assignment of debt instruments have been considered, the dynamics of realization and structure of internal and external borrowings has been analyzed. The problems of applying the loan method of budget resources formation in Ukraine have been revealed. A set of measures for improvement of the use of government borrowings as a tool of the budgetary mechanism in the context of minimizing threats to the state's debt security has been developed. The results of evaluating the practice of using debt instruments give reason to argue that the irrational approach to their use, the manifestations of which are the unbalanced structure of debt payments over time, high cost of attracting resources and focus on solution of the short-term goals of budget policy, led to increased debt financial burden, the level of threats to the debt security of Ukraine and is the reason for the reduction of potential growth rates of the national economy and increasing of its vulnerability to external shocks.. In order to minimize fiscal risks the feasibility of applying measures for improvement of the use of debt instruments has been substantiated by: adherence to the limit of the state budget deficit defined by the Budget Code of Ukraine, of state and local budgets, providing of state and local guaratees, diversification of the structure of the debt portfolio of borrowings taking into account currencies, maturities and interest rates; limiting the provision of state guarantees and the implementation of state financial support to economic entities at the expense of government borrowing in the conditions of excess of the share of public debt and the state guaranteed debt in the GDP of Ukraine of the 60% limit; the use of borrowed budgetary resources to finance investment projects.

The article investigates the priorities of budget investment and trends in the distribution of capital expenditures among the budgetary system levels in Ukraine during 2010-2019 period. It has been established that capital expenditures of budgets in Ukraine cannot be equated with capital investments from the budget, since they contain articles that are inconsistent with the classical understanding of investments. But the analysis of their dynamics and structure makes it possible to identify the priorities of budget investment and the distribution of budget investment among the budget system levels. It has been established that since 2015 in Ukraine there has been an increase in the share of capital expenditures of the consolidated budget in the total expenditures of the consolidated budget at the expense of local budgets, which are a consequence of an increase in the local budgets resource base in relation to the decentralization reform. A positive trend of growth in the percentage of capital expenditures fulfillment of both state and local budgets was revealed. Also, since 2015, a change in the ratio of capital expenditures among the levels of the budget system in the direction of the prevalence of local budgets and a change in the structure of capital expenditures of the state and local budgets has been revealed: in the state budget, capital transfers to enterprises that are a form of support for certain sectors of the economy are decreasing, but in local budgets they are growing. Thus, the economic function of the state to support individual sectors of the economy is delegated to local budgets. It also revealed a change in priorities in the structure of financing public investment projects from the state budget of Ukraine during 2019-2020 from social development projects to transport infrastructure development projects (70% of funding). It has been established that capital investments from budgets of all levels are not aimed at multiplying budget investments; therefore, an increase in budget capital expenditures does not guarantee the acceleration of the state economic development. The improvement of the investment activities state management system should be realized in the direction of formation and budgetary financing the investment projects that will contribute to the introduction of new technologies, the creation of new jobs and the investment attractiveness of the country.

The article is devoted to the characteristics of the regulatory and legal support of budget security in Ukraine. Regulatory and legal support of budget security is understood as a state view of its essence and content, which determines the official ideas and views that relate to it, including the conditions and procedure for cooperation between the state and society in ensuring budget security. A classification of doctrinal interpretations of the concept of "budget security" was proposed, namely: the ability of the state to effectively perform its own tasks and functions with the help of the budget; the ability of the banking system to ensure the rational formation and use of budget funds to ensure financial stability and independence of the state; the state of ensuring the solvency of the state; the process of developing, implementing and monitoring budget execution; an indicator for assessing the effectiveness of public policy in social and other spheres of public life and the performance of its functions. The author's interpretation of the concept of "budget security" as ensuring the safe state of public economic relations, which mediate the formation and use of a centralized fund of financial resources of state and local levels, designed to ensure the tasks and functions of these entities, creating conditions for development and strengthening democratic, social, legal state. It was proved that the regulatory and legal support of budget policy has a hierarchical organization and covers the Constitution of Ukraine, codes of Ukraine (Budget Code of Ukraine, Tax Code of Ukraine, Criminal Code of Ukraine, Code of Administrative Offenses), laws of Ukraine "On State Budget for… year" , a number of laws regulating relations in the field of budget security, as well as bylaws that ensure the implementation and enforcement of the mechanism of budget security of Ukraine, resolutions and regulations governing the work of state bodies and institutions in the field of budget security, decisions and normative legal acts of local authorities and local self-government bodies in the researched sphere. The leading role in the researched problems is played by a number of international acts ratified by Ukraine, the norms of which directly or indirectly concern ensuring the budgetary security of the country.

In modern conditions, public spending on social protection plays a priority role in improving the welfare and quality of life of vulnerable populations. From the volume and direction of financial resources of the state depends not only the level of welfare of society, but also the development of the domestic economy and the stability of the socio-political situation in the state. The developed countries of the modern world spend about 17% of gross domestic product for social protection and social security. This indicator shows that expenditures on the social component occupy the largest share in the structure of state budget expenditures, both in foreign countries and in Ukraine. The lack of public funds to meet the requirements of current legislation and failure to fulfill planned indicators of financing of all social articles are the main problems of financial provision of social protection in Ukraine. Despite the fact that during the analyzed period there is an increase in expenditures on social protection in Ukraine, these funds are still insufficient. The implementation of the policy in the social protection system has a number of reasons, which are manifested primarily in the implementation of the approved expenditures of the state budget. Despite the significant amounts of public spending on social protection and social security and wide range of forms of social assistance, the benefits of which are enjoyed by a significant part of society, not all measures are effective. On the one hand, the state invests significant funds in the development of the social sphere, and on the other - these costs do not solve the problems of social protection, but, on the contrary, inflate them. Solving the problems of financing social protection in Ukraine must be carried out in conjunction with reforming the social protection system as a whole, which will reduce the financial burden of the state and improve living standards. Therefore, we consider it important to investigate the issues of public spending on social protection and the problems of financing the social sphere and find alternatives to improve its functioning.

Annotation. Introduction. The article considers the concept of unconditional basic income in the study of social policy as a state instrument of universal social justice. Considerable attention paid to the prospects for the introduction of unconditional basic income and the implementation of its basic principles into Ukrainian legislation. Various approaches of legal regulations and etymology of social policy in the context of the state security system are considered. Significant emphasis placed on the study of the theoretical challenge of unconditional basic income, namely the study of the functioning of such a mechanism in modern communicative realities. This research is a product of analytics and was created without taking into account the author’s political ideas. Given the recommended amount of research, the issues of unconditional basic income was considered not to be completed. Purpose. One of the main tasks of the article is to study the mechanism of functioning of unconditional basic income and the possibility of its application in practice. It is also worth giving your own view of the social policy problems. The tasks of the article are to analyze the modern social security system and to suggest options for its improvement. Results. The theory of unconditional basic income currently has no practical application. Despite a significant number of theoretical experiments, no country in the world uses the instrument of unconditional basic income at the legislative level. Therefore, it is too early to talk about the implementation of this theory of social policy in practice in Ukraine. Conclusions. Theory of unconditional basic income has a strong intellectual tradition, but the practical application of this instrument of social policy not implemented. Our studies show that such a system promotes the development of human capital and increases the geographical mobility of people. Unconditional basic income creates material support that promotes human development in other spheres of life. However, it was noted that conducting such a social policy requires significant expenditures from the state budget. This creates material barriers for some countries to use unconditional basic income as a tool of social policy. Keywords: unconditional basic income; social policy; state institutions; legal system.
