Th e article analyzes the current state of Russia’s trade in construction services. The author examines the state development strategies applied to the export of construction services, in particular, the eff ectiveness of measures to achieve the objectives set in the strategy. Special attention is paid to the state mechanism for supporting the export of construction services, and a comparative analysis is made with a successful example of the support mechanism in China. According to the results of the study, there is a high potential for the expansion of Russian construction services exports despite the imposed sanctions. The key areas for fostering the growth of construction services exports were identifi ed, the main of which are the strengthening of bilateral relations with potential partner countries, cooperation with African countries in the construction market, as well as the improvement of the state mechanism for supporting the export of construction services, primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises.

India as one of the largest emerging economies in the world and the most populated together with China plays a signifi cant role in the global economy. India’s high rates of economic growth were mostly above the global average for several decades. As part of the current stage of economic development, India has begun to focus on closer integration into the global economy and strengthen its export orientation. Given an impressive progress in increasing its share in global GDP and exports by the 2010s, India became a regional center of economic development. Nevertheless, exports and economic growth of India have lost steam amid manifestations of crisis in the global economy in 2022, and, according to the projections, they are not expected to gain it until 2027.

Since the Asian economies continue to enjoy high growth rates their markets are very attractive for manufacturing and trading companies. The demand in these markets is growing rapidly. To take advantage of these opportunities, companies should take into consideration characteristics and requirements of consumers in these countries, deep diff erences in the economies of the Asian region.

Abstract The article considers the interactions that take place at the regional and global levels of economic internationalization, as well as the issues of the transition of regionalization and globalization to the integration stage. It is concluded that major integration eff orts in the foreseeable future will be undertaken rather at the regional than at the global level. The development of international trade is facilitated by a multi-level system of regulation. Regional trade agreements do not undermine the multilateral trading system, but aim at coherence of the rules and regulations established at two levels - regional and global. Preserving the unifying role of the WTO implies formalizing at the multilateral level the fundamental provisions reached by the participants of the most successful regional agreements

Today’s international arms and military equipment trade has become more volatile and irresponsible and contributes to the maintenance of confl icts in many regions of the world; this trade is poorly regulated resulting in increasing migration, human rights violations and poverty. Under the conditions of the current special military operation, the problems of uncontrolled deliveries of weapons, including through illegal channels, have become aggravated. Th e article assesses the possibilities of international legal regulation of arms and military equipment exports at the present time, as well as analyzes the key aspects and issues of supporting exports at the national level, in particular, using the example of the United States as the largest arms exporter.

In this study, the BRICS development institutions and the integration association itself are analyzed. The main objectives of the BRICS activities, trends in cooperation and the most strategic spheres of infl uence are identifi ed. In addition, a statistical analysis of the infl uence of the BRICS eff orts on the key macroeconomic indicators of the member countries is carried out, indicating their impact on global economic and fi nancial indicators. The study also considers technology transfer centers and practices of their implementation and operation in various countries (using the example of countries in the G7 and BRICS countries), and as a recommendation, it is proposed to use the international experience of these centers and to continue their in-depth implementation in Russia. Finally, a conclusion on the importance of development institutions as a whole within the state and in cross-country cooperation is made
