Development of the logistics system of the economic region “polissya” in the context of the green economy: ecological problems and perspectives

Abstract

Modern business conditions require the implementation of the financial support mechanism for the transformation of transport and logistics systems using non-traditional sources of funding, including “green” investments. The key instruments of “green” financing for transport infrastructure modernization, which are effectively used in different countries, include: “green” bonds, “green” loans, grants, guarantees, technical assistance, money of “green” investment funds.

This paper is devoted to the analyzes of the dynamics of environmental indicators of the regional logistics system taking as an example the economic region “Polissya”. On this basis, modern environmental problems of the district’s logistics system have been identified. An analysis of the development of world markets for “green” bonds, “green” loans and sustainable investment assets is made. Peculiarities and characteristic features of “green” financing instruments for the development of logistics systems of different levels are considered. As a result of the research it is established that in the Ukrainian realities it is expedient to apply the advanced international experience of realization of the “green” financing of infrastructure projects mechanism in economic areas. This will successfully transform regional logistics systems in the context of the green economy and achieve sustainable development of transport infrastructure.

Сучасні умови господарювання вимагають реалізації механізму фінансового забезпечення трансформації транспортно-логістичних систем з використанням нетрадиційних джерел фінансування, серед яких «зелені» інвестиції. До ключових інструментів «зеленого» фінансування модернізації транспортної інфраструктури, які ефективно використовуються у різних країнах світу, віднесено: «зелені» облігації, «зелені» кредити, гранти, гарантії, технічна допомога, кошти «зелених» інвестиційних фондів.

У статті проаналізовано динаміку екологічних показників розвитку регіональної логістичної системи на прикладі економічного району «Полісся». На цій основі виявлено сучасні екологічні проблеми функціонування логістичної системи району. Виконано аналіз розвитку світових ринків «зелених» облігацій, «зелених» позик і активів сталого інвестування. Розглянуто особливості та виявлено характерні риси інструментів «зеленого» фінансування розвитку логістичних систем різного рівня. У результаті дослідження встановлено, що в українських реаліях доцільно застосовувати передовий міжнародний досвід реалізації механізму «зеленого» фінансування інфраструктурних проектів в економічних районах. Це дозволить успішно трансформувати регіональні логістичні системи в контексті зеленої економіки й досягти сталого розвитку транспортної інфраструктури.
