In the article the essence of institutional mechanisms of cross-border cooperation has been analyzed, the necessity of improvement and harmonization of domestic institutional ensuring with similar factors in the European Union countries has been emphasized. It is noted that state regional policy represents a complex of organizational, legal and economic measures that are being carried out by the state in the field of country’s regional development, taking into consideration current socio-economic conditions of the regions and strategic tasks as a whole. The main point of institutional mechanism as an element of public administration is considered through the system of institutions, organizations and establishments with different level and status which ensure state policy implementation in a certain sphere. It has been mentioned that among varieties of institutional forms of the development of cross-border regions the principal ones are: Euroregions, cross-border partnerships, cross-border clusters, European communities of territorial cooperation, as well as industrial zones and technoparks. Taking into account the imperfection of institutional mechanisms for the implementation of transborder cooperation it is necessary to adapt national legislation of Ukraine to the EU law standards and create relevant legislative acts that will encourage the performance of requirements of a single domestic market of the EU and the gradual approximation of Ukraine to a holistic European economic space for a sustainable TBC development. It is pointed out that one of the reasons connected with heterogeneity of boundary territories’ development is insufficient level of institutional and organizational ensuring. It has been noticed that non-effective application of European institutional mechanisms of cross-border cooperation stipulates a necessity of their investigation and operation’s assessment in view of institutional theory.
