Generalizing and Analyzing of the Indicators of Economic Development of the Regions of Ukraine
Abstract
The publication generalizes and analyzes the indicators of economic development of the regions of Ukraine. It is substantiated that the degree of development of the national economy is determined by certain indicators. The most important among them are gross domestic product (GDP), gross national product (GNP), exports, imports, turnover of foreign trade, unemployment rate, inflation, budget deficit, level of public debt. The analysis of dynamics of GDP of Ukraine for the period of 2011–2016 is carried out. It is determined that economic development of the regions of Ukraine is always closely connected with the technological structure of its material production capital and the human production capital. It is concluded that the dynamics of indicators characterizing economic development in the regions indicate an increase in the imbalances as to their development, are unstable and depend to a large extent on the influence of various factors. In such conditions the problem of formation of a long-term strategy of social and economic development of regions in order to reduce the existing imbalances is acutely topical.
