Institutional foundations of the business environment in the field of transport services

The development of the services market is impossible without improving the regulation of trade in services. Trade in services has been regulated bilaterally for many years. However, as a result of the emergence of a network of services based on the use of modern technical means of communication and computers, the effectiveness of traditional regulatory methods in this area has decreased, which, in turn, has hindered the full realization of the economic potential of scientific and technological progress in the service sector. As a result, it became necessary to create a universal effective mechanism by which trade relations in this area could be coord inated. An important component of the implementation of state and private projects in the field of socially significant public interests at an effective level is the study of the functioning environment of economic entities that is adequate to modern competitive conditions for the provision of socially significant services. First, we are talking about the formation of a business environment, the functioning conditions of which are set by the state. The article substantiates the need to form a system of relations between economic entities based on the principles of public-private partnership in the field of public passenger transport services. It is proved that this system is aimed not only at increasing the number of financially independent actors and their associations, but also at transforming state institutions that become active participants in market relations, interacting, and sometimes competing with the business community, transferring more and more functions to it even in those industries for which they previously traditionally held sole responsibility.
