STRATEGIC RELEVANCE OF UKRAINE'S POSITION
THROUGH THE PRISM OF INTERNATIONAL RATINGS
Introduction. The strategic goal of Ukraine is its integration into the EU. А
prospect for such integration are determined by the current competitive position of the
country and depends on the place and role of the country in the global economic space.
It is expedient to use different ratings to determine the data.
In view of this, today the use of ratings as analytical tools becomes more relevant
in determining the comparative advantages of subjects of world economic relations.
Such ratings allow us to focus on the country's development in comparison with other
countries of the world and to track the points that need to be addressed when
formulating the state policy in the relevant field.
Rating (from English to Rate) is a multidimensional integral indicator that
summarizes the most significant properties of complex socio-economic phenomena
that can`t be measured directly (competitiveness, investment attractiveness, quality of
life of the population, etc.).
International ratings are an important source of information on the potential and
development of countries around the world. In addition, identifying the strengths and
weaknesses that affect the country's position in the global coordinate system, they serve
as an indicator of the need to implement measures aimed at overcoming deficiencies
and creating greater opportunities for increasing competitive advantages.
Researchers whose research is aimed at analyzing the changes in the positions of
Ukraine in terms of ease of doing business, competitiveness, inclusive growth of the
national economy and the development of information and communication
technologies: Heyets V.M. [4], Yu. Dudka, S. Zakharchenko, V. Kozyuk, Yu. Lutsik,
Yu. Khvatov and etc. In the publications, these authors describe the structure of the
relevant rating systems, but do not reflect the relationship between the impact of the
totality of these ratings on the overall strategic position of the country.
Today in Ukraine the issue of developing a qualitative and effective strategy of
"Ukrainian miracle" is a topical issue. There are a number of strategic scenarios and
priority development areas at the time, such as the Ukraine-2020 Sustainable
Development Strategy [10], the National Report Sustainable Development Goals:
