Mykhailenko D. H. Sustainability of the Socio-Economic Development of Ukraine's Regions
The priority direction of the socio-economic development of Ukraine and its regions is the vector of ensuring sustainability of national, regional and local interests. Their provision will contribute to high social standards of quality and population's standard of living as well as increasing the level of competitiveness of Ukraine's regions. The article is aimed at analyzing the indicators of socio-economic development of Ukraine's regions, identifying regions-leaders and the regions requiring additional state-funding programs. The calculations presented in the publication demonstrate that a significant part of Ukraine's regions is not self-sufficient and requires subsidies from the budget, which results in poor sustainability in the socio-economic sphere; therefore, it is necessary to elaborate a program to overcome socio-economic polarization of the regions based on the involvement of the local potential. Keywords: sustainability, socio-economic development, region. Fig.: 1. Tbl.:2. Bibl.:10.

МихайленкоД. Г. Сбалансированностьсоциально-экономического развития регионов Украины
Приоритетным направлением социально-экономического развития Украины и ее регионов является вектор обеспечения сбалансированности общегосударственных, региональных и местных интересов. Их обеспечение будет способствовать обеспечению высоких социальных стандартов качества и уровня жизни населения и повышению уровня конкурентоспособности регионов Украины. Цель статьи заключается в анализе показателей социально-экономического развития регионов Украины, определении регионов-лидеров и регионов, нуждающихся в дополнительных программах финансирования со стороны государства. Приведенные в статье расчеты показывают, что значительная часть регионов Украины не являются самодостаточными и требуют дотаций из бюджета, что приводит к отсутствию сбалансированности в социально-экономической сфере. В связи с этим необходима разработка программы преодоления социально-экономической поляризации регионов на основе использования местного потенциала. Ключевые слова: сбалансированность, социально-экономическое развитие, регион. Рис.: 1. Табл.: 2. Библ.: 10.

The priority direction of socio-economic development of Ukraine and its regions is the vector of ensuring sustainability of national, regional and local interests. However, the solution to these issues is associated with a large number of problems, the ways of overcoming which require scientific substantiation. Ensuring sustainability of national, regional and local interests shall contribute to high social standards of quality and population's standard of living as well as increasing the level of competitiveness of Ukraine's regions [1]. These theses are also reflected in the State Strategy for Regional Development for the period to 2020. The Strategy was adopted on August 06, 2014, No. 385 by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine [2], and is aimed at solving the problems of growing inter-regional
socio-economic disproportions and uneven development of territories. The Strategy focuses on the implementation of the state regional policy, which provides for the creation of conditions for the dynamic, sustainable development of Ukraine's regions at the expense of the objective assessment of each region. It will promote social and economic unity of the state, increase the level of competitiveness of the regions and living standards of the population, adhere to state-guaranteed social and other standards for every citizen irrespective of his/her place of residence [2].
Scientists of the Research Center for Industrial Development Problems of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine analyze the balance of socio-economic development of Ukraine's regions as one of the factors of sus-

tainable development of the state [3]. Regional socio-economic unevenness of Ukraine's development is reflected in the works of I. Vakhovych [4], I. Storonianska, S. Shults [5], Z. Varnalii [6]. However, despite a large number of developments, due to the dynamic changes in external and internal environment, the scientific and practical bases of sustainability of socio-economic development of Ukraine's regions require constant elaboration.
Paper object is to analyze the indicators of socioeconomic development of Ukraine's regions, identify regions-leaders and regions that require additional statefunding programs.
The problems of sustainability of the socio-economic development of the regions are a matter of high priority. When analyzing the data from the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, the lack of sustain-ability of social and economic development of Ukraine's regions should be noted [7].
In most regions, gross regional product per capita is lower than per capita consumption. Table 1 shows calculations of gross regional product per capita to per capita consumption ratio in Ukraine's regions [8-10].
The data in Table 1 indicate that the level of production consistently exceeded the level of consumption only in Poltava, Dnipropetrovsk, Kyiv, Donetsk and Kyiv regions. Such regions can be called "leaders". Indicators of Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, Ivano-Frankivsk and Cher-kasy regions during the analyzed period also reached the level, similar to the one of regions-leaders; however, no constancy of the necessary and sufficient predominance of the production over the consumption was observed. In the period from 2015 to 2016, the value of the analyzed indicator changed to the negative side in Ivano-Frankivsk (2015 - 0,901, 2016 - 0,8558), Sumy (2015 - 1,065, 2016 -0,9828), Cherkasy (2015 - 1,0992, 2016 - 1,08), Cherni-hiv (2015 - 0,9782, 2016 - 0,9508), Kirovohrad (2015 -1,0724, 2016 - 1,0587), Khmelnytskyi (2015 - 0,9288,

2016 - 0,9140), Zakarpattia (2015 - 0,7355, 2016 -0,701), Ternopil (2015 - 0,7803, 2016 - 0,763) and Cher-nivtsi (2015 - 0,6204, 2016 - 0,6053) regions. During 2015-2016, in addition to the regions-leaders, the level of production exceeded the level of consumption in Luhansk (2015 - 1,0547, 2016 - 1,1493), Zaporizhzhia (2015 - 1,1569, 2016 - 1,1488), Cherkasy (2015 - 1,0992, 2016 - 1,08), Mykolaiv (2015 - 1,0722, 2016 - 1,0846), Kirovohrad (2015 - 1, 0724, 2016 - 1.0587) and Vinnytsia (2015 - 1,0176, 2016 - 1,0563) regions. The calculations show that most Ukraine's regions are not self-sufficient and require subsidies from the budget, which leads to poor sustainability in the socio-economic sphere. Particularly acute this problem is facing Chernivtsi region, where comprehensive programs contributing to the increase of production in the region and the balance of socio-economic indicators are required.
Based on the data of the State Statistics Service, we will compile the rating of Ukraine's regions by the average indicator of the ratio of gross regional product per capita and per capita consumption (20122016) (Table 2).

Source: according to [7].
Analysis of Table 2 showed that Poltava, Kyiv, Dni-propetrovsk, Donetsk, and Kyiv regions occupy leading positions in the rating. The last five positions of the rating occupy Volyn, Ternopil, Zakarpattia, Kherson and Cher-nivtsi regions.
For a more comprehensive analysis, we will calculate the average value of the indicator of gross regional product per capita to per capita consumption ratio in Ukraine during 2012-2016 (Fig. 1).
In general, a positive dynamics of the indicator (Fig. 1) has been being observed in Ukraine since 2014.
So, in 2012, the average value of the ratio of gross regional product per capita to per capita consumption in Ukraine was at the level of 1.0189. The gradual decrease of this indicator took place in 2013-2014 (2013: 0.9643, 2014: 0.9559). However, in 2015, the average value of the ratio of gross regional product per capita to per capita consumption in Ukraine increased by 0.0229 compared to 2012 and by 0.0379 in 2016.
CONCLUSIONS
Sustainability of socio-economic development of Ukraine's regions requires revision of approaches to solving regional problems. Public authorities should pay attention to the development and formation of the state regional policy that would meet the requirements of external and internal environment. Regional authorities shall develop a program to overcome socio-economic polarization of regions based on the use of local potential for conducting cost-effective regional policies aimed at reconstructing and reforming the economy, attracting investments, developing and implementing regional development plans. ■
