Modern business conditions require the implementation of the financial support mechanism for the transformation of transport and logistics systems using non-traditional sources of funding, including "green" investments. The key instruments of "green" financing for transport infrastructure modernization, which are effectively used in different countries, include: "green" bonds, "green" loans, grants, guarantees, technical assistance, money of "green" investment funds. This paper is devoted to the analyzes of the dynamics of environmental indicators of the regional logistics system taking as an example the economic region "Polissya". On this basis, modern environmental problems of the district's logistics system have been identified. An analysis of the development of world markets for "green" bonds, "green" loans and sustainable investment assets is made. Peculiarities and characteristic features of "green" financing instruments for the development of logistics systems of different levels are considered. As a result of the research it is established that in the Ukrainian realities it is expedient to apply the advanced international experience of realization of the "green" financing of infrastructure projects mechanism in economic areas. This will successfully transform regional logistics systems in the context of the green economy and achieve sustainable development of transport infrastructure.

It is proved that for balanced sustainable development of the regional transport and logistics system it is expedient to develop a cluster model of organization of logistics activities in the economic region, which means a conceptual approach that involves the creation and operation of transport and logistics cluster. The cluster model includes the following blocks: a single set of processes of logistics activities; members of the transport and logistics cluster that organize these processes; algorithm of cluster formation and functioning; mechanisms for forming partnerships of cluster members; financial support for cluster development; achieving a synergetic (economic, social and environmental) effect from the sustainable development of the transport and logistics cluster on the basis of stimulating the region. In order to form a transport and logistics cluster in the Carpathian economic region, it is necessary to create appropriate institutional conditions, which are: improving the legislative and regulatory framework for the development of the transport sector and the organization of logistics activities, taking into account the regional component; development of the Strategy of complex development of the regional transport and logistics system on the basis of modernization of the transport infrastructure; development and implementation of organizational and economic mechanism for managing the development of the transport and logistics system of the economic region using the tools of "green" logistics and digital technologies; Improving the mechanism of financial support for the development of transport and logistics system through the use of financial instruments such as venture capital, crowdfunding, international public-private partnership based on private investment, credit institutions, foreign investment resources, grants from international financial organizations, investment funds.

At present, the formation and development of the transport and logistics system is recognized as a promising area of the regional economy. This is due to the intensive development of transport logistics and the creation of a single European transport space in the framework of the transport policy of the European Union TEN-T. The article provides a predictive assessment of the indicators characterizing the development of the regional transport and logistics system of the Prydniprovsky economic region using economic and mathematical tools, and on this basis the trends in its functioning are identified. It should be noted that forecast estimates should be considered forecasts – a warning. That is, while maintaining an insignificant level of labor productivity and its decline, low capital productivity of capital investments for the coming years, the volume of transport activity (rail and road) of the Prydniprovsky economic region may significantly decrease. As a result of the study, a set of measures has been proposed, the implementation of which will transform the transport and logistics system of the region. These include: development of a strategy for the development of the transport and logistics cluster as a component of the regional transport and logistics system; development and implementation of a financial support mechanism for managing the development of the transport and logistics cluster; reconstruction of existing and creation of new facilities of appropriate logistics infrastructure; creation of optimal multimodal logistics chains, including through the expanded use of energy-efficient modes of transport; attracting private investment in the technical modernization of the port infrastructure of the Berdyansk seaport; intensification of innovation with the use of various forms of pre-ferences (loans, guarantees, tax benefits, subsidies) for the development of the seaport; transfer of port facilities for concession or lease; the use of information technology to manage the transport and logistics system of the region; implementation of the concept of «green» logistics, which will allow combining ecology and economy into a single system to preserve the region’s ecosystem and environment using environmentally friendly technologies in the field of transport and storage facilities; the introduction of digital logistics as a mechanism for the development of the transport and logistics system. Keywords transport and logistics system, regional economy, economic region, indicators, forecast estimate, economic and mathematical tools, trends, transformation, European transport policy.

Cost rationalization has become imperative in every economic system in order to create adequate foundations for its efficient and sustainable management. Competitiveness in the global market is extremely high and it is challenging to manage business and logistics systems, especially in regards to financial parameters. The presence of inventories is inevitability in every logistics system, and it tends to create adequate policies for their efficient and sustainable management. In order to be able to do this, it is necessary to determine which products represent the largest percentage share in the value of procurement, and which are the most represented quantitatively. In this paper, the warehouse of construction material that represents the wholesale system is considered. Taking into account that it is wholesale, it is necessary to determine what the procurement costs are and what the demand is for certain products. The grouping of products into three categories A, B and C was performed, after which it is necessary to identify appropriate suppliers for each category in order to rationalize procurement costs. Financial, logistical and quality parameters are taken into account. The FUCOM method has been used to determine the significance of these parameters and ARAS method is applied for supplier evaluation and selection.

In the situation where a large increase in trade and freight transport volumes in the Baltic Sea region (BSR) is expected and in which the BSR is facing a major economic restructuring, efforts to achieve more integrated and sustainable transport and communication links within the BSR are needed. One of these efforts is the development of logistics centres (LCs) and their networking, which will continue to have an impact on improving communication links, spatial planning practices and approaches, logistics chain development and the promotion of sustainable transport modes. These factors will reflect on logistics processes both in major gateway cities and in remote BSR areas. The importance of logistics systems as a whole is not seen clearly enough. Logistics actors see that logistics operations are not appreciated as much as other fields of activity. In addition, logistics centres and the importance of logistics activities to the business life of areas and the employment rate should be brought up better. In the paper main goal and tasks of national approach to LCs development are discussed. Strategic focus of new activities in this area is on the integration of various networks within and between logistics centres in order to improve and develop the quality of logistics networks as well as to spatially widen the networking activities. The key objectives are to integrate the links between logistics centres, ports and other logistics operators in a functional and sustainable way, to promote spatial integration by creating sustainable and integrated approaches to spatial planning of logistics centres and transport infrastructure, to improve ICT‐based networking and communication practices of the fields of transport and logistics and to increase the competence of logistics centres and associated actors by organising educational and training events. The current activities include, for example, the creation of measures for transport networking and port modernisation, multimodal transport network strategies, integrated networks between ports, logistics centres and other operators, the better involvement of LCs in spatial planning and knowledge of the land use needs of the LCs, territorial impact assessments on selected transport corridors where logistics centres are located, the establishment of a common vision of the future spatial and environmental development along the transport corridors and LC‐areas, the elimination of bottlenecks in port‐hinterland‐LC connections, the integration of telematics supported logistics networks based on identification and analysis of networks.

The main problems of transport infrastructure of cities are the problems of interaction of different types of transport, optimization of route flows, technical backwardness, low capacity, low speed of travel on public transport, low comfort for passengers. Currently, this is complicated by the constant growth of population and the number of cars, which invariably results in the need for optimization of an urban logistics system. A comprehensive solution to the problems presented can be the building of a network of transport hubs as a new stage in the implementation of transport reform. The article analyzes the transport infrastructure of Yekaterinburg. Based on the ABC analysis of passenger traffic, a method has been developed to identify the stopping points of the route network, which can later be transformed into transport hubs. The optimal logistics system of Yekaterinburg has been formed, consisting of three transport and logistics hubs: “Bus terminal”, “Railway station”, “Professors’” (Professorskaya).

Abstract The mainstreaming of concepts related to the Green Economy, an action-oriented approach to reach sustainable development, has increased demands for integrated models that can shed light on the complex relations existing across social, economic and environmental indicators. A gap exists, whereby our thinking is rapidly evolving, but the tools available are still in the vast majority of cases sectorial, leading to planning processes taking place in silos. To avoid the emergence of side effects, and anticipate future threats and opportunities, a more systemic approach is needed. The Green Economy Model (GEM) was created taking into account four main capitals and their interconnections: physical capital, human capital, social capital and natural capital. The application of GEM in 10 countries has shown its capability to coherently represent reality and generate results that can more effectively inform decision making.
