An empirical assessment of the impact of blockchain technologies on the effectiveness of the supply chain development

© ExcelingTech Pub, UK. The purpose of this paper is to review the existing literature on blockchain technology, present some trends and consider its potential value in supply chain management (SCM) of market. In modern economic conditions, the financial market integrated into the global economy is of fundamental importance for the development of the national economic system. In order to maintain and develop economy, the financial sector is constantly looking for ways to optimize its business processes and operations. Today, blockchain technology is considered by many participants in the financial market as a tool that forms the innovative potential of the industry providing a number of additional effects. It should be noted that despite the very high interest on the part of international and national financial institutions, enterprises of the real sector of the economy in the distributed data storage technology, studies on the problems of assessing the use of the potential of blockchain platforms in the socioeconomic environment, their theoretical understanding is not often demonstrated. Existing works, as a rule, reveal either the technical side of the object under study, or the regulatory or legal aspects of the applicability of blockchain technologies in the national economy. In this regard, this work attempts to overcome this conditional vacuum of understanding in order to make up for conditions with questions revealing other aspects of the subject of research, for example, such as the economic and social effects of introducing blockchain technologies into the activities of business entities. A formalized assessment of the development prospects of the banking sector in the new institutional economic environment is carried out on the basis of the assessment of the emerging effects caused by the integration of distributed data storage technologies into the system of operational processes in credit institutions

The influence of supply chain management on the economic dynamics of the region in comparison with traditional factors

© ExcelingTech Pub, UK. The paper substantiates the need to study issues that discover the features of the influence of region's supply chain management on its macroeconomic dynamics through the prism of economic and mathematical analysis. This will allow us to form a new vector for constructing models of economic growth and to localize an inclination of applying qualitative methods of analysis in this area of research towards quantitative approaches to the analysed processes and phenomena. In this regard, the main goal of this work is to develop methodological tools to assess the impact of supply chain management on the dynamics of regional economic growth, as well as to form mechanisms for a comparative analysis of the influence of the region's reputation with traditional factors that activate macroeconomic generation. The Republic of Tatarstan acts as an object of study. The subject of the study is a methodological toolkit for assessing the impact of a region's reputation on the parameters and dynamics of investment processes. A key feature of the study is the proposed version of the comparative analysis of traditional and non-traditional factors (the latter include supply chain management in this work) that trigger mechanisms of investment growth in the regional economic system. On the basis of the developed methodology for the formalized assessment of the region's supply chain management, the authors have constructed models that evaluate the level of the comparative impact of reputation on the processes of generating investments in fixed assets. It is advisable to use the developed methodological approaches when developing new models of economic growth under conditions of increased importance and the role of intangible production factors. According to the results of the study, we have proved that the region's supply chain management plays one of the leading roles along with traditional basic factors that trigger the mechanisms of intensification of investment activity. Moreover, as the calculations show, the importance of reputation for the matter of activating investment processes is even slightly more noticeable than such an important indicator as the "Balanced financial result of economic entities".

Methodology for assessing the impact of the diffusion of blockchain technologies on the development of the national economic system (illustrated by the example of the Russian Economy)

Distributed data storage technologies are becoming an integral part of the modern economy. In this regard, today it is very relevant to a search for formalized approaches to assessing the impact of blockchain technologies on key parameters of macroeconomic generations. The subject of the research is the system of relations between economic entities of the national economy, associated with the perception of blockchain technologies that permeate economic processes. The aim of the study is to develop a methodological toolkit for scenario forecasting of possible consequences for the national economy of the introduction of blockchain technologies into the economic sector. The authors apply methods of cointegration analysis, scenario modeling, substantiation of the studied patterns by methods of regression analysis, etc. The authors use works of foreign and Russian scientists, official data of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation as an information and statistical database. The authors systematize positive and negative externalities; propose an algorithm for studying the influence of blockchain technologies on the dynamics of GDP through the transformation of the key parameters of the functioning of the financial and real sectors of the economy; build a model and assess the possible impact on GDP of the integration of blockchain technologies into the economy. As a result, the authors make the following conclusions: to the greatest extent, the integration of blockchain technologies into the business processes of the national economy affects the change in the financial results of credit institutions, an increase in capital liquidity of economic agents, as well as the acceleration of the processes of socialization of channels of access of business entities to financial markets (expanding access of economic agents to exchanges). Scenario modeling of changes in these factors made it possible to establish that the potential for additional GDP growth in the Russian economy can reach about 1% per year as part of the integration of distributed data storage technologies into the system of economic relations. The developed and approved methods for the formalized assessment of the impact of blockchain technologies on the dynamics of economic growth create the basis for clarifying methodological approaches to the study of the problem posed, open up new opportunities for holding discussion platforms on this topic

Mechanisms for ensuring the economic security of the banking sector based on blockchain technologies

© International Research Publication House Similar to how the digitalization of the socioeconomic environment destroys traditional areas of business (for example, digital channels replaced analogue ones), blockchain technologies can significantly transform existing business processes, including in the financial sector, thereby continuing to develop the FinTech paradigm. The introduction of blockchain technologies in the financial environment may violate the order of its functioning and development due to the fact that financial transactions can be generated in a decentralized way, while not violating the principles of verification, storage and data protection. In this regard, issues related to the empirical assessment of the possible effects arising from the “blockchain implementation” into financial markets are relevant and significant. The banking sector in the national economy of the Russian Federation was chosen as the object of research. The subject of research is the relationship built between participants in the financial market based on blockchain technologies and the resulting effects expressed in the potential to reduce the operational risks of credit organizations. In the course of our study, the scenario parameters for generating financial results of the banking sector as a result of the “blockchain implementation” into operational processes are disclosed in a formalized form; the functional capabilities of blockchain technologies are also identified that help minimizing operational risks in the banking sector

Assessing the impact of supply chain financing using blockchain technology on credit risks in the banking sector of the Russian Federation

© ExcelingTech Pub, UK. Traditional supply chains rely on banks to support the related financing activities and services. With the emergence of blockchain technology, more and more companies in different industries have considered using it to support supply chain finance. Despite the very high interest from international and national financial institutions, and also enterprises from the real sector of the economy demonstrated in the distributed data storage technology, studies on the problems of assessing the use of the supply chain platform potential in the socioeconomic environment, and their theoretical understanding can be met vary rarely. As a rule, existing works reveal either the technical side of the object of study, or the regulatory or legal aspects of the applicability of supply chain technologies in the national economy. This paper attempts to overcome this conditional vacuum of understanding in order to make up for conditions with questions revealing other aspects of the subject of research, for example, such as the economic and social effects of introducing blockchain technologies into the activities of business entities. The banking sector of the national economy of the Russian Federation was chosen as the object of research. The research subject is the relationship built between participants in the financial market on the basis of supply chain technologies and the resulting effects expressed in the potential to reduce the credit risks of banks due to non-fulfilment, untimely or incomplete fulfilment of financial obligations by debtors. In the course of the study, the main directions that reduce the risks under consideration as a result of minimizing opportunistic models of behavior are substantiated and possible economic effects for the Russian banking system as a result of the use of blockchain technologies are identified. The opportunities for supply chain finance offered by possible applications of blockchain technologies in the supply chain and the capacity of this technology to deal with the existing barriers and pain points. The most important result of the work is the developed algorithm for determining the parameters for reducing the credit risk capital for as a result of the penetration of supply chain technologies into the banking environment

A Formalized Assessment of the Scenario Development of the National Economy in the Context of the Penetration of Blockchain Technologies Into the Financial Sector of Transactions

© (publication year), (publisher). All rights reserved. In the coming years, blockchain technologies may become one of the breakthrough innovations in the financial sector of the economy, optimizing and simplifying transaction operations in a number of areas, and reducing their cost. In this regard, representatives of the financial industry should understand the possible consequences caused by the integration of the technologies under consideration in business processes. It is important to understand that the blockchain technologies have a very significant potential for transforming the established algorithms for the interaction of financial market participants, and be aware where are the boundaries of these changes, what new opportunities are presented by blockchain technologies and. Furthermore, finally, what are the expected consequences for the development of the financial sector itself and the other sectors of the national economic system associated with it. It should be noted that studies on blockchain technologies are very fragmented and, as a rule, have an insufficient level of both theoretical and empirical study. It seems relevant at the present stage of the development of economic science to conduct a systematic study aimed at finding and substantiating the areas of economic activity that are most susceptible to penetration of blockchain technologies. This involves a further justification of the possible consequences and using methods that are not so much qualitative but of quantitative analysis. In this regard, the process of resolving the issues posed in order to minimize risks for financial and other organizations in the face of the opportunities and threats to come under the pressure of the integration of blockchain platforms into the business environment becomes a vital and urgent task. This research is devoted to the solution of the questions posed. Without claiming to be complete and perfect concerning the proposed mechanisms to solve the tasks, the work, in fact, is an invitation to the scientific community to develop further a methodology for studying the influence of blockchain technologies on the dynamics and parameters of the formation of economic growth rates
