PECULIARITIES OF ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT IN THE MARKET OF HOUSING AND UTILITIES SERVICES DURING THE REFORM OF THE INDUSTRY (EXPERIENCE OF FOREIGN COUNTRIES)

Abstract

Housing and communal economy (HCS) is the most important element of both social and economic sphere of the national economy, a complex multi-branch industrial and technical complex. For Ukraine, the problems of development of housing and communal services are of particular importance due to the high level of depreciation of housing stock, the critical state of utilities infrastructure, low quality of services, high resource loss. All these and other factors for many years determine the social, environmental, political and other problems of functioning of the complex, and as a consequence, have a negative impact on the livelihood of the population and the efficiency of the functioning of enterprises, including other industries. Therefore, systematization of the problems of functioning of the housing and utilities sector and the definition of possible prospects for their solution is an urgent issue in modern economic conditions.
