The article examines the legal status of legal entities of public law as participants in civil circulation. Both general and special research methods were used, which were determined by the purpose of the article, taking into account the object and subject of the research. To study the above-mentioned civil law relations in their interconnection and development, the dialectical method was used. The comparative legal method was used to analyze the world experience of legal regulation of the status of legal entities of public law in foreign legislation and the doctrine of law, in particular, in the legislation of the CIS countries. Results showed that legal entities of public law are organizations; as legal entities; have the characteristics of a legal entity: organizational unity, the presence of separate property, acting in circulation on their own behalf, independent civil liability. In addition to the general features of a legal entity, legal entities of public law also have special features that characterize them as participants in civil turnover. It was concluded that legal entities of public law are a type of legal entity, are created in the administrative order by the state and have targeted legal capacity.

entities in EU member states.Many EU Member States use two criteria for determining the personal law of a legal entity: the settlement criterion and the incorporationcriterion. However, the application of the theory of settlement in determining the personal law (statute) of a legal entity actuallyimpedes the implementation of the principle of freedom of establishment contained in the TFEU, as the relocation of control centers ofthe legal entity to the state where the theory of settlement is applied. loss of legal personality of a legal entity. This position is based onthe case law of the Court of Justice. In addition, the application of the theory of settlement and incorporation significantly complicates the process of regulating theactivities of legal entities and slows down the development of the single market in the EU.The experience of European countries in drafting an international treaty containing norms on unified legal regulation of the statusof legal entities has not proved effective. The EU has chosen other mechanisms for resolving conflicting issues of legal status of legalentities, namely: harmonization of national laws of EU member states on certain issues of legal status and activities of legal entities, aswell as the creation of new organizational and legal forms of legal entities. This partially overcomes certain issues of conflict-of-lawregulation of the status of legal entities, for example, the issue of cross-border movement of European companies, European cooperatives;in accordance with EU Directive 2019/2121, the rules of the laws of the Member States on cross-border transformation, mergersand divisions of limited liability companies should be harmonized.

The article focuses on one of the corporate forms of entrepreneurial activity - general and limited partnerships. Limited liability companies and joint stock companies are among the most popular legal forms of companies. However, the development of Ukrainian legislation moves in the direction of creating a system of different forms of entrepreneurship, which are aimed at different needs and interests of their founders. Such forms of entrepreneurship exist and operate successfully in Europe. Carrying out a comparative analysis in the article allows the author to confirm the existing thesis that there is no single vector in European countries concerning the legal status of these partnerships. Some states define these partnerships as legal entities, others - as a form of joint business activity. It is emphasized in the article that the European legal space is characterized by the use of the concept of defective legal entity. The author perceives any of these European approaches, but points to the need for its consistent reflection in all legal acts that determine the status of general and limited partnerships. The article supports the assertion formed in the scientific literature about the criticism of domestic legislation on general and limited partnerships. Such criticism concerns to those norms of Ukrainian legislation, which use untypical provisions for legal entities. All existing researches are directed to one aim - to develop a single vector in the regulation of general and limited partnerships. They should be regulated either as legal entities or as forms of joint activity on the basis of an agreement. The author states that the main attention in granting general and limited partnerships the status of a legal entity should be focused on clear boundaries between the liability of a legal entity and the subsidiary liability of its members. The article supports leading scholars’ critical assessment of the legislative definition of general partnerships as an association of persons for joint business activities. Based on the analysis of the definitions of a general partnership in EU law (for example, France), it is proposed to define a general partnership as an association of persons engaged in business activities through joint contributions of all participants (full partners) and their subsidiary liability for the company’s obligations. This wording indicates that the partnership itself carries out business activities, and not its members. The author also does not deny the possibility of introducing general and limited partnerships as associations of persons on the basis of an agreement on joint activities. At the same time, it is noted that all norms of national legislation should consistently adhere to such concept.

Theoretical and applied research of the features of the legal status of the subjects of civil law remains debatable today. Doctrinal and legislative analysis of this subject points to unresolved issues in this area. In particular, the provision on defining the state as a party to civil law remains controversial. There is no consensus on the definition of individuals and legal entities as subjects of civil law among scholars. Furthermore, the legal regulation of certain types of entities is somewhat unsystematic and chaotic. This is largely due to the insufficient development of theoretical issues related to the subjects of civil law. The above issues determine the relevance of the study of the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law. The purpose of the study is to investigate the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law based on doctrinal and legislative analysis. The study is based on a systematic approach, which lies in studying a complex system of relationships between subjects of civil law. Furthermore, the study is based on the laws and principles of dialectics, which contribute to the study of the legal status of the subjects of civil law. Systemic and structural-functional analysis was used to comprehensively describe the legal status of subjects of civil law. The historical method contributed to the study of the evolution of research on the subjects of civil law. The formal legal method helped identify the special features of the provisions of regulations concerning the subjects of civil law. With the help of the comparative legal method, the study analysed the provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine in terms of regulation of subjects of civil law and such regulation was compared with other countries. The study defined the concepts and types of subjects of civil law and considered the features of the legal status of individuals, legal entities, as well as the state as a special participant of civil law. Special attention was paid to the historical analysis of the development of approaches to the definition of subjects of law, starting with Roman law

The relevance of the study of the problem of affiliation of legal entities is determined by the lack of a coherent legal mechanism to ensure the resolution of conflicts of interest between dependent persons. As of today, Russian legislation as a whole does not contain clear provisions regarding the concept of the affiliation of legal entities. Certain laws contain only separate independent concepts, for example, the concept of “affiliation” is used in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation; in the Federal Law «On Competition» - the concept of «group of persons»; in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation - the concept of «interdependent persons». Therefore, the study of the problem of settling relations with affiliates deserves special attention. The objectives of this study are the systematization and analytical study of the legal regulation of the institution of the affiliation of legal entities. In the course of the study, the authors used the following methods: analysis and synthesis, modeling, comparison, analysis of the regulatory framework, synthesis, formal legal method The article examines the issues of legal regulation of the affiliation of a legal entity. The definition of the concept of “affiliation” is given, criteria and signs of affiliation of a legal entity are defined, various scientific approaches to the definition of this category are given, problems of correlation with economic and other types of relations between affiliates are explored. In the course of the study, the authors came to the conclusion that the institution of affiliation in its present form undoubtedly needs to be reformed. It is necessary to develop a unified law, reflecting all the nuances of the concept of “affiliation” and the features of the transactions with affiliated persons.

The article is devoted to administrative legal personality, which is part of the structure of the administrative-legal personality of private legal entities. At the same time, it is argued that, on their own, the rules of law cannot influence the behavior of their addressees, therefore the only instrument by which legal regulation is used to help ensure such influence is the mechanism of legal regulation within which the functions of law are implemented, and specific life situations are addressed. It is noted that, like any state mechanism, the mechanism of legal regulation consists of the relevant elements, namely: norms of law, legal relations, and acts of realization of rights and obligations. Thus, we can conclude that the disclosure of the features of the mechanism of legal regulation is possible only if a thorough study of its elements. Thus, each state that there is no language and there can be no legal regulation, which in its nature and nature is different from other types of regulation. It should also be remembered that, at its core, legal regulation is not material but is done through the consciousness and will of the people. It is perfect. However, any ideal process cannot occur without the participation of matter. Based on all the above, it can be stated that one of the constituent parts of the mechanism of legal regulation is legal relations. It should be remembered that public relations also have an internal structure to which the subject, object, and content relate. However, the absence of at least one of the elements of the relationship automatically complicates, or even precludes their very existence. The same rule applies to the mechanism of legal regulation. Thus, the study of each of the components of the mechanism of legal regulation has the same scientific significance and importance as the study of the mechanism itself. Therefore, if we conduct a study of administrative-legal personality, then it must take into account its place and the impact on legal regulation as a whole. Legal personality nowadays also exists in administrative law, although the very concept of “legal personality”, as a certain characteristic of a legal entity, originally originated in civil law. However, it should be remembered that the method of administrative law is significantly different from civil law, and therefore the use of civil law expertise in the field of legal personality should be used with extreme caution. In his desire to ensure state control and the possibility of applying state coercion, the legislator adapted the rules of public law to the construction of a legal entity of private law. On this basis, it should be noted that different types of legal entities under private law would have different levels of administrative capacity. That is why the legal capacity of legal persons under private law can be recognized as administrative law, both social and legal capacity, and the need to be the subject of administrative-legal relations. Keywords: administrative-legal personality, legal entity, private law, mechanism of legal regulation.

Abstract The purpose of the article is to study the aspects of beekeeping regulation as a vector as a vector of green economy’s institutional development. To achieve the objectives indicated, the authors analyze the legal status of bees as objects of legal regulation and legal protection; the beekeeping activity and the legal status of beekeepers and their associations; the issues of state regulation of beekeeping activities. In the course of the study the authors applied the systemic and structural-functional methods of scientific knowledge, the comparative legal method, the method of interpreting legal norms, as well as the logical method. As a result of the study, conclusions were drawn about the need to improve the regulation of beekeeping activities both by the norms of the national legislation of Russia and at the level of the CIS countries. A coordinated state policy to support beekeeping activities within the CIS could significantly affect the development of beekeeping in the CIS countries. In this regard, the proposed measures to improve the legal regulation of beekeeping in Russia and to create mechanisms for state support of beekeeping in the CIS countries are proposed as a vector of institutional development of the green economy.

The article is devoted to issue establishing and disclosing the beneficial owner by the participants of economic relations. The identification of beneficial owners is an integral and primary component of preventing and combating money laundering, terrorist financing, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The current legislation supplemented the range of persons to whom identification and verification procedures should be by trusts and «other similar (to trusts) legal entities». Nevertheless, the definition of beneficial owners in this category of persons has been complicated by the lack of proper legal regulation of trusts at the national level and lack of unification in international law. Subjects of primary financial monitoring must take into account many different types of trusts and similar structures. Trust has to be recognized even in a combination of the beneficiary and the proxy in one person. The concept of «other similar (to trusts) legal entities» should be consolidated by establishing their qualifications. The beneficial owner, unlike the beneficiary, can only be a person who has direct or indirect influence (control) over the client's activities and does not have the status of an intermediary, commercial agent, or nominal owner/holder. The features of the concepts «significant influence on the management or activity of a legal entity» and «decisive influence (control)» are analyzed. The availability of access to insider information and the possibility of its use personally or through third parties should be studied for financial monitoring purposes, as it may indicate the indirect decisive influence on a legal entity or other legal entities.
