The impact of some external factors on financial instability in Ukraine

Abstract

Introduction. The nature of Ukraine's economic development over the past thirty years reflects its dependence on global financial and economic cycles. The nature of this dependence lies in the stable interrelationship of the global commodity markets with factors of internal financial stability. One of the important ways to overcome such dependence is a nationally-rooted monetary policy aimed at supporting domestic economic activity and weakening the influence of the external environment on financial stability. Problem Statement. Increasing the internal financial stability of the national economy and the regulatory potential of monetary policy by limiting their dependence on global economic cycles. Purpose: Formalization of the relationship between the financial stability of the national economy and changes in the global commodity markets and the identification of prospective monetary policy measures to mitigate them. Methods. General scientific and special methods are used : theoretical generalization, systematic, abstract-logical and comparative analysis, synthesis, grouping. Results. The article summarizes the regularities that determine the cyclical repetition of financial and economic crises in Ukraine. In particular, it was noted that the stability of small open economies, a significant share of whose income is formed by the export of raw materials, largely depends on the situation on the global raw materials markets. Cyclical downturns in these markets cause financial crises, which lead to the decapitalization of small open economies and thus make their structural innovative development impossible. Conclusions. In order to ensure the sustainable development of small open raw material economies, it is necessary to carry out an appropriate institutional policy of the state aimed at ensuring the development of a more complex economic base with a departure from raw material dependence. This requires a corresponding modernization of monetary policy in terms of expanding control over the movement of capital flows, limiting the volatility of the exchange rate.
