With the beginning of port reform in Ukraine, the model of port sector gover-nance was changed. Established in 2013, the Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority was endowed with administrative, maritime safety and security functions. Purely commercial activities remained with public and private stevedoring companies and marine terminals. This distribution of functionality in seaports has brought the domestic governance model closer to the well-known in North America and North-Western Europe – landlord-port model. The aspects identified as a result of the study,namely control over land plots, legal status of the Ukrainian Sa Ports Authority, the presence of state stevedores, and unsettled relations with local authorities, do not allow to classify the domestic port governance model in the classical sense of landlord-port. The latter points rather to a hybrid model in Ukraine with some elements of landlord-port model, such as concessions, private participation in services etc. The most vulnerable element in the context of the port-landlord model at the Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority is the lack of a mechanism for managing port areas due to the presence of several types of landowners in a seaport including public, local and private entities. The article proposes a number of measures, including corporatization of the Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority, amendments to the legislation, innovations in the distribution of concession fees, support of the state's exit from the stevedoring activity segment in ports, as wellas an inventory of port territories, the implementation of which can qualitatively bring the Ukrainian model closer to the port management practices of North-Western Europe. In addition, involvement of local authorities into activities of seaport councils as permanent members, and -after corporatization of Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority- to participate in pilot projects of joint ownership of autonomous port authorities (for example in the ports of Odessa and Mykolayiv) could facilitate a sustainable cooperation between a port and local governance
The article presents an analysis of factors which affect the development of public-private partnership (PPP) in Ukraine. Considering that one of the main goals of PPP is to attract capital investments for the construction and modernization of infrastructure facilities, it is proved that the country's positions in international rankings are important for developing relations with potential investors, strategic partners and also affect the development of the backbone links of PPP mechanisms. It is proposed to structure the indicators of global rankings by combining them ernance indicators (Worldwide Governance Indicators). In the course of the analysis, it is determined that the country's positions in global rankings should be considered simultaneously as indicators of the need for PPP and identification of obstactes in the development of partner relationship between the state and business. It is proposed to improve the Concept of PPP Development in Ukrainethe focus being made on the need for taking into account the country's PPP-Readiness Index, based on a comprehensive assessment of the influence of factors of a political, economic, institutional, legal, social, and innovative and technological character. In this context, it is advisable to use the results of the analysis of the country's positions in global rankings by representatives of government bodies, business, civil society institutions when formulating the national policy on PPP development.

Развитие государственно-частного партнерства в контексте показателей Украины в глобальных рейтингах В статье представлен анализ факторов, оказывающых влияние на развитие государственно-частного партнерства (ГЧП) в Украине. Учитывая, что одной из основных целей ГЧП является привлечение капитальных инвестиций для строительства и модернизации объектов инфраструктуры, доказано, что оценки страны в международных рейтингах имеют важное значение для развития отношений с потенциальными инвесторами, стратегическими партнерами, а также влияют на развитие системообразующих звеньев механизмов ГЧП. Предложено структурировать показатели глобальных рейтингов, объединив согласно тематическим блокам, а именно: экономический (Doing Business, Global Competitiveness Index, Index of Economic Freedom, Legatum Prosperity Index); коррумпированности системы (Corruption Perception Index, The Open Budget Survey, Global Open Data Index); индикаторы государственного управления (Worldwide Governance Indicators). В результате анализа определено, что показатели государства в глобальных рейтингах целесообразно рассматривать одновременно как индикаторы потребности в ГЧП и выявления барьеров развития партнерства государства и бизнеса. Предложено усовершенствование Концепции развития ГЧП в Украине, подчеркнута необходимость учета Индекса готовности страны к ГЧП, базирующегося на комплексной оценке влияния факторов политического, экономического, институционально-правового, социального и инновационнотехнологического характера.
