Improvement of State Regulatory Policy in Ukraine Based on International Experience

Abstract

Topicality. The system of state regulation that exists in Ukraine does not contribute to increasing the competitiveness of domestic enterprises, the introduction of innovations and the development of leading sectors of the national economy. At the same time, it creates a significant administrative burden on business. Repeated deregulation measures had only a temporary effect. In order to improve the regulatory policy in Ukraine, it is important to study the best global practices, primarily the experience of the EU.Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the measures aimed at improving the state regulatory policy based on the study of the best international experience and the situation in Ukraine.Materials and methods. The following methods are used in the research process: comparative analysis, statistical analysis, system-structural approach. Normative acts of Ukraine and the European Union, official documents of the OECD, the State Regulatory Service of Ukraine, works of foreign and domestic scientists are used.Research results. Changes in the state regulatory policy of developed countries in the 21st century are analyzed. It was found that in modern conditions the emphasis is not on the deregulation of certain markets, but on improving the quality of regulatory acts due to their evaluation throughout the entire life cycle: from drafting to revision. The necessity of assessing the actual impact of regulatory acts and the methodology of its implementation have been studied. It has been clarified how openness and transparency of regulatory policy, effective feedback in the regulatory process is ensured in developed countries. The EU regulatory policy, the most important tools of such policy are analyzed. The reasons for the low effectiveness of the state regulatory policy in Ukraine and the measures to improve the situation that have been implemented recently are studied. Ways to improve the quality of regulatory acts are identified.Conclusion. Implementation of an effective regulatory reform is a prerequisite for the rapid recovery of Ukraine's economy after the war. It is appropriate to organize an independent review of the effectiveness of the most important regulatory acts with the involvement of experts and consulting firms. Feedback should be improved by publishing action plans for tracking the effectiveness of regulatory acts and draft reports. It is important to introduce a compensatory approach, when the introduction of new regulatory measures must be accompanied by the repeal of outdated acts.
