Abstract:
The strategy of the cooperative sector development in Ukraine has been considered in the article. It was established that the scale and pace of its formation depend on the development of the system of cooperatives, mainly of four their types: agricultural, consumptive, credit, and social services. The author believes that in future on the base of various types of cooperatives would form the regional sector of the cooperative economy. Methodological principles of the strategy of cooperation development as a direction of structural transformation of the agricultural sector of the national economy have been grounded. As a result of this investigation it was founded that the effectiveness of the cooperative units’ performance depends on the general socioeconomic situation in the region, decisions of administrative authorities, business opportunities, investment implication and other conditions. On the other hand the impact of these cooperative units plays its own important role in all mentioned processes. The authors emphasize on market regulations, coordination of firms and business in an arias, regions or at inter-regional level. This is especially important under conditions when public authorities have no right to interfere in economic activity of the market.
