CORRELATION OF THE TERM «TRADE» AND «TRADE ACTIVITY» IN THE LEGISLATION OF UKRAINE

Abstract

The article is investigating the following questions: the use of different terms when defining activities related to the sale of goods in the scientific literature and legislation of Ukraine; the correlation between the terms of «trade» and «trading activity»; definition of the range of relationships covered by these concepts; the interpretation of the term of «trade» in science; definition of the term of «economic and trading activity». Due to the lack of a unified approach to the definition of the concepts of «trade» and «trade activity», their use in regulatory legal acts that are adopted in the field of trade creates certain difficulties when determining the range of relations covered by these concepts. The process of trade is not limited only to the purchase and sale of goods, at the same time the transporting, storing, protecting goods are taking place, the markets are being investigated, assortment and marketing policies are being conducted, the demand is being examined, etc. In our opinion in the broadest sense, trade should also be considered as a branch of national economy in our opinion. The author notes that there is every reason to assert that trading activity is exclusively business activity, that is, it is conducted in order to receive profit. The systematic implementation of trading operation on a professional basis by business entities is recognized as trading activity. We believe that the term «trade» is broader and includes the concept of «trade activity» and «trade operations». Trading operations can be carried out by both business entities and natural persons who are not registered as business entities. Trading operations are aimed at executing sales contracts and are not of systematic character.
