Field of application of results. The results of this study can be applied in the field of studying the problems of the placement of productive forces and the regional economy. Conclusions. Summing up, we note that the most modern models of the economic mechanism are models based on the concept of economic equality of all subjects and ownership parties. With such a system of economic relations, the region and the center fall into absolutely equal starting conditions, which sufficiently stimulates both subjects of property relations. On the one hand, thanks to considerable financial and economic opportunities, the center concentrates significant funds on strategically important national directions of social, structural and scientific and technical policy. On the other hand, the regions have enough resources to promptly solve the current problems related to raising the living standards of the region's residents.
