Abstract

The situation of competitive social benefits on international standards and assessments, presented in the "Human Development Report for 2013" and "Global Competitiveness Report 2012-2013", is examined. It is noted that increasing the Ukraine's position is achieved due to such components as "the macroeconomic environment", "infrastructure", "goods market efficiency" and "business sophistication". It is shown that the growth of Ukraine's position has a rather intensive character and basically is connected with a post-crisis stabilization instead of increasing productivity and improving the efficiency of market economy tools. Compared with other countries the competitive advantages of Ukraine are still in the elements that characterize human capital – health and primary education, higher education and training, market share. The estimation of Ukraine's position according to the economic freedom ranking, by network readiness index, by the index of competitiveness of travel and tourism is given.
