Purpose: of the study is to identify factors that hinder budget support for investment projects aimed at combating poverty due to the deprivation of economically accessible social infrastructure (deprivation poverty). Methods: the work used traditional methods of scientific analysis, as well as an interdisciplinary approach characteristic of the study of social well-being problems in the context of the availability of social benefits created by social infrastructure facilities. The research is based on the application of social goal-setting documents, methodological documents regulating investment activities and budget support, Rosstat data, EIS «Procurement», EMISS, GIS «Electronic Budget». Results: the identification of factors of social well-being was carried out and the justification of the level of deprivation poverty in relation to the available social infrastructure was carried out. The necessity of independent regulation of the market of the poor suffering from such deprivations is confirmed. Based on the analysis of methodological tools for assessing the feasibility of budgetary support for investment projects in social infrastructure, methodological problems have been identified and the inapplicability of the existing approach for the market under study have been proved. Proposals are formulated to change approaches to calculating the budgetary efficiency of investment projects aimed at the infrastructural development of social industries. Conclusions and Relevance: a growing number of the deprived poor are suffering from a lack of supply of economically accessible social infrastructure and services. The study shows that the involvement of private investment in the creation of such facilities, taking into account the need for non-market pricing, will require changes in the methodological approach of the state to budget support for investment projects. It is necessary to abandon the percentage and return principles and replace them with compensatory ones for servicing vulnerable categories. The social development of the country should be based on the social well-being of all segments of the population, without extreme gaps among them. For sustainable development, flexible methodological tools are needed, based on the dependence of the amount of budget support on the number of social effects generated by the project.

Purpose: is to form evaluative indicators of crises based on the analysis of financial behavior of subjects of the global economic system during various crisis periods. Methods: quantitative and qualitative analysis of the crises’ periodization, according to evaluative indicators calculated on the World Bank data; retrospective, comparative analysis of the financial behavior of subjects of the global economic system were used. Results: evaluative indicators of crises are formed. Methods and approaches to the study of crises are systematized based on the analysis of the financial behavior of subjects of the global economic system in crisis periods. It is shown that the state of the balance of payments can be among the evaluative indicators of crises. The spikes of the oil prices can also anticipate a crisis. The gold rises in price during and immediately after crisis, serving as a reserve currency. In this time, there is a decrease in the scale of variation in the growth rates of indicators of money supply, companies’ market capitalization and domestic credit. Conclusions and Relevance: the identified evaluative indicators can act as a system of leading indicators of crisis processes, in conditions of an increase in the global economy volume and the intensifying instability of the global financial system. It is shown that the financial sector of the world economy is increasingly detached from the real sector. The financial sector and state institutions, using various risk reduction tools, transfer risks to the global economic system, which leads to the development of new rules of financial behavior of the subjects of the global economic system in crisis periods. It is proposed to consider the leading indicators of crisis processes as a system that can form the basic factors of financial behavior of subjects of the global economic system in crisis periods, determining the directions of stability of the world economic system. The strengthening of the influence of new technologies, including advanced information and communication technologies, in the context of expanding the diversity of models and systems of interaction of individual agents and institutional systems can both act as an unconditional engine of economic development and provokes the strongest crises in the global economic system.

Purpose: to present and justify a methodical approach to assessing the level of adaptability of organizational management structures to the conditions of a dynamically changing external environment. Methods: a wide range of general scientific methods is used – system analysis, synthesis, graphical interpretation of data. During the study, the method of expert assessments was used to assess the level of adaptability. In order to classify the types of management structures depending on their adaptability, a cluster analysis was carried out. Results: the article presents an approach to the definition of the concepts of "adaptation" and "adaptability" in relation to management structures. In order to develop a methodical approach to assessing the level of adaptability of organizational structures, the types of their adaptation were systematized, the main characteristics of the structures were identified and the scale was developed to assess the level of their adaptability. The use of the expert method made it possible to assess the level of adaptability of the main types of organizational structures to the conditions of a changing business space and rank them depending on this level. As a result of the cluster analysis, all the studied types of management structures were classified depending on their adaptability. Conclusions and Relevance: the developed methodical approach to assessing the level of adaptability of management structures made it possible to determine the adaptive properties of both hierarchical and organic management structures, assess their level of adaptability and identify the most adaptive among them. It has been established that the basis for the successful development of companies in the conditions of turbulent business space is the use of organic structures or changing individual parameters of hierarchical structures in order to increase their adaptability. Adaptation can be carried out using any structure, both traditional hierarchical and organic, by forming new management structures or increasing the adaptability of existing ones. Further research in this area should be devoted to the development of an effective mechanism for adapting management structures to the conditions of a changing business space.

Purpose: is to identify regional points of economic growth and innovative development of the Rostov region on the basis of a spatial analysis of socio-economic indicators. Methods: classical research methods were used in the work, such as synthesis and analysis, dynamic method, system-structural method, comparative analysis, scoring method. The study also used specific applied methods: spatial analysis, geoinformation monitoring, rating assessment of innovation activity. The essence of the author's approach is that in order to identify the points of growth of regional development, two conditions must be fulfilled simultaneously: 1) conducting a spatial analysis of groups of indicators with an emphasis on innovative indicators, 2) applying an integrated approach to the consideration of economic, social and demographic (migration) indicators reflecting the specifics of the regional economy. Results: the points of growth of the region's economy and innovative development of regional organizations are identified. The features of achieving uniformity of the economies of single-industry towns (former mining towns) are revealed. Blocks of potential resources for the functioning of regional growth points are grouped based on the analysis of innovative indicators. Conclusions and Relevance: spatial analysis makes it possible to identify regional growth points with a core on innovative indicators. The transition of the Rostov region to the strongest group of innovators can be carried out through the identified growth points for the following types of activities: agriculture, transportation and storage, construction. As a result of the activation of growth points, there will be a positive transformation of the structure of the regional economy. The evaluation of strategic programs for the development of territories revealed the need for their timely adjustment for the purpose of socio-economic development of the region.

Purpose: is to develop a methodological approach to determining trends and drivers of the development of local consumer services markets. Methods: this study is based on a systematic methodological approach that allows identifying local consumer services markets as components of the regional consumer market in general, and the regional services market in particular. The research is also based on the application of general scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, comparison, as well as on the application of methods of economic and statistical analysis of dynamics and groupings, analytical data processing, analogies, scientific generalizations. Considering that the object of the study is the markets of household services localized within municipalities, spatial analysis methods were used in the study. Results: the methodology of analysis of the local market of household services has been developed, including the following stages: 1) determination of the object of research; 2) analysis and evaluation of indicators of the development of local markets of household services (volumes of household services to the population of municipalities; the scale of the presence of municipalities in the economy of the region in terms of the volume of paid services to the population; the provision of the population of municipalities with objects and points of consumer services; the structure of the markets of household services by type of services; availability of human resources for the sphere of consumer services of municipalities); 3) interpretation of the results. The methodology was tested on the example of municipalities of the Sverdlovsk region – leaders in terms of paid services to the population. Conclusions and Relevance: trends in the development of local consumer services markets have been identified. The most important of them are the preservation of stability and heterogeneity of the specific structure of local consumer services markets, a moderate pace of commissioning of consumer services facilities, insignificant dynamics of indices of the physical volume of household services to the population, the collapse of consumer services markets due to the impact of the COVID–19 pandemic. The problems of the development of local consumer services markets are revealed, and these are imperfection of the legal regulation of consumer services, lack of qualified personnel, insufficient financial resources to increase the level of provision of the population with consumer services, low level of development of mobile forms of provision of household services, etc. The drivers of the development of local consumer services markets have been identified.
