This analysis demonstrates the potential of public-private partnerships to enhance Ukraine's maritime sector amidst budget constraints, suggesting key improvements.
This article considers the prospects for usage of public-private partnership mechanisms in connection with recent changes in the regulatory framework of Ukraine. By the authors’ opinion, bearing in mind a significant deficit of the country's national budget, mechanism of concession remains almost the only mean for innovative transformation of the maritime industry of Ukraine and, in particular, seaports. The paper analyzes the current state and dynamics of the implementation of concession projects in the country (including port industry), and indicates the existing systemic obstacles that hinder their implementation. Basing on the analysis of successful cases in European ports, recommendations are given for implementing the concession mechanism in the port industry of Ukraine.
