The main conclusions obtained from the results of the study, can be structured as follows: trends and consequences of the migration crisis in the European Union are defi ned by the set of reasons that are due on the one hand the policy of transparency being implemented by individual countries, making the whole European Union is the center of attraction of immigrants (primarily from the MENA countries) and other hand, the intense and growing fl ow of migrants creates regional threats, including the European Union's economic security; the problem of ensuring the economic security of the European Union in the context of the impact of the migration crisis is most actual issue at the moment and the main reason is that the accumulation of the fl ow of migrants to the strongest European economy – Germany. In this case, not only Germany, but also France (and until recently UK) had to improve the economic and social consequences of migration and also to implement measures aimed to recover from fi nancial crisis of the last few years, the consequences of which to date are shown in the many social and economic areas of the European Union; addressing the problem with migration crisis in the European Union seems to use a special system of measures, in which on the one hand realized containment of migration fl ows and on the other hand held solutions aimed at the assimilation of migrants in multicultural environment with full adoption of the latest socio-economic, democratic and moral values specifi c to European societies.

In the article the problems of "transplant" for post-socialist countries. Institutional framework of the transformation of society has its own characteristics. Its institutions can ensure the eff ectiveness of economic development, as a rule, in the short run. After performing their tasks, these institutions are transformed or disposed of as such, it has already completed its mission.

Purposes / tasks. The aim of this paper is to transplant institutions.

Article tasks: to explore and identify: The term "transplantation"; Factors that cause an ineffi cient choice of institutions; The main tasks of institutional transformation in market transformation of the economy.

Methodology. The methodological basis of the study is the dialectical method of scientifi c knowledge, a systematic and institutional approach to the study of transplantation of institutions as the formation of a new economic system.

Results. The result of the successful application of the transplanted institutions must be economic and social security, the formation of eff ective collective decision-making mechanisms, the growth of state budget revenues and other socio-economic indicators. The institutions should be assessed as a specifi c kind of public goods. Their characteristic is a public good is important to consider the probability of positive and negative impacts that are measured in terms of various social strata, as well as determine the eff ectiveness of the existence of diff erent variants of the institutions adopted to regulate certain processes.

Conclusions / importance. From the point of view of the determination of the economic security of its external and internal factors and risks, the main tasks of institutional transformation in market transformation of the economy are: the creation of favorable conditions for the implementation of tasks in the context of globalization and integration; maximum realization of competitive advantages of national priorities, economic security; overcoming corruption and shadow economy; formation of an eff ective competitive environment; the creation of modern legal and institutional mechanisms for the protection of intellectual property rights; innovation; reaching an agreement between the regional elites on the priorities and perspectives of regional and national development, the formation of public confi dence in the institutions of the state, government, business and civil society.

The modern world with linked and interpenetrating processes more and more often raises pressing issues of security and stability. However, in the past the term "security" was used in a broad strategic sense of the word (for example when describing country's border safety or territorial integrity, etc.), nowadays this term is infl uenced by economic factors such as an important issue of security of energy supply. This issue should not be underestimated, even though it does not seem to play an important role in the country's security. The oil crises of the late 20th and the early 21st centuries have proved how much the global economy depends on the price of energy resources, an increase in which might provoke a dramatic recession not only in any given country but throughout the world.

The traditional view holds that Russia could not be aff ected or infl uenced by any energy issues, since it has some of the richest energy resources in the world, hence the rising issues of security of energy supply were mostly neglected. However, the last few years have revealed the fl aws and shortsightedness of this approach. Irregularities in energy supply, the increasing shortages of natural gas and problems related to its transit to Europe are the first signs of forthcoming problems. If these problems are persistently ignored, it might lead to a full-scale energy crisis within the next few years. All of the above highlights the relevancy of the present article.

The purpose of this article is to determine Russia's strategic interests in the area of global security of energy supply.

With this in view the following objectives have been accomplished: The term of "security of energy supply" was defined in relation to the Russian Federation; Russia's energy policy was examined and analyzed; Priority tasks and objectives for Russia in the field of security of energy supply were defined.

The formation of the strategic projects portfolio of the company – it is an urgent task which is associated with the strengthening of innovation and investment activity of the operating in Russia enterprises. Nowadays, transfer of enterprises activities to an innovative way of development is going on in the face of the deteriorating international situation, Russia's isolation from European countries and the United States, and the implementation of the sanctions policy, changes in the domestic economic and political course. These circumstances, of course, could not aff ect the adjustment of activities and strategic goals of the development of enterprises, at the level of their financial and economic stability. At the same time, the growth of innovation activity in a number of sectors, particularly in high-technology industries, it creates the need for the formation of the project portfolio, which allows to achieve the strategic objectives of enterprises and enhance their competitiveness.

During the preparation of the article there were identified a core set of problems faced by the enterprises during the transition to a model of the project management, which is due, primarily, poor project management technologies in Russia, and it is complicated by the lack of a clear definition of objectives and vision benefits for enterprises. In addition, the reasons for the backlog are caused by the low level of project management maturity of the enterprise, which is caused by a lack of personnel with expertise in this field of knowledge.

There are identified "bottlenecks" and complexity in the process of project portfolio management at the stage of its formation in this article

A research purpose is the analysis of the European natural gas market environment and the modernization opportunities of the delivery system from Russia in connection with the current geo-economic changes. The main methods are the factorial approaches and the content analysis, which allows allocate and structure this sector’s driving forces.

Export of the Russian natural gas on the European market still remains the dominating activity, in terms of the total amounts of deliveries, though over the last ten years its specific weight has been considerably reduced. The situation has sharply become aggravated both in connection with the "Ukrainian" crisis, and that of the European Union policy, which is taking the active measures for the gas supply system diversification. As a result of the conducted research it is proved that the Russian gas transportation system in the Arctic regions requires the strategic upgrade which shall go in two main directions.

The first direction is the forming of the new pipeline schemes replacing the unreliable transit routes. The second direction is a rather innovative development of exploration and transportation of the liquefied natural gas which amount exceeds thirty percent in world export and in Russian has not yet reached ten percent.

Scientific novelty of the received results consists in system approval of the opportunities of adaptation of Russian export deliveries to the market demand changes. The proposals of increase of the liquefied natural gas exploration in the Arctic regions and formation of the basic centers (special zones) have also a practical importance.

The article is devoted to the model of freedom franchising and to its comparison with the classic franchising model. The aim of the article is to systemize and enrich the knowledge in the sphere of the franchising model evolution. The author’s task was to identify the key features of the freedom franchising model, to compare the freedom franchising with classic franchising and to formulate the conditions under which the freedom franchising model can be developed. To achieve this the analysis, synthesis, comparison and longitude methods were used. Classic franchising model includes the transfer of both visible (design, brand style) and invisible to the customers (business processes, know-how) elements from the franchisor to the franchisee. Such a business model enables the franchise to preserve the high quality of products and services and to grow the net at high rate. The drawback of the classic model is the complexity of bringing up innovations by the franchisee – new ideas are strictly chosen by the franchisor and then implemented within the network only after the successful experience in control points of contact. Nevertheless, there is the franchising business model in which franchisees can experiment with front-of-house (visible) elements of the system (such as point’s of contact design) on the one hand, and on the other – in which new ideas and initiatives from the franchisee are welcomed by the franchisor. The model is called “freedom franchising”. It is important to point out that key system elements are standardized in both models as standardized production processes help preserve high quality within the franchising net. Freedom franchising model is not applicable in the spheres where full business standardization is needed as well as in the business that is focusing on fast growth. But it helps franchisees to implement new ideas within the whole network. The article would be of interest to franchisors for creating franchise programs as freedom franchising model helps combine the regulations of the franchising model with franchisees’ initiatives.

This paper analyzes the past and current situation of geological exploration drilling on the Arctic region continental shelf. Along with climate conditions, the strategy of drilling is greatly infl uenced by technical accessibility of licensed sites, the latter depending on achieved level of equipment and technologies. Since 2014 the USA, the European Union countries and a number of other states have imposed sanctions against Russia. Sectoral sanctions, prohibiting access to technologies employed in the Arctic region shelf projects, have become an important part of these sanctions. This research is aimed at assessing the infl uence of sectoral anti-Russian sanctions on geological exploration drilling in the Arctic seas. The choice of geological exploration drilling is not accidental as the majority of Russian Arctic projects are at this particular stage now.

Over the recent forty years, the country has accumulated considerable practical experience of conducting geological exploration drilling and the Arctic region field development. Our analysis demonstrates that modern Russia has necessary technologies for exploration and field development in the Arctic region. In fact, Russia is the only country, which actually continues its operations in the Arctic region amid a sharp decline of oil prices. Imposing sectoral sanctions related to equipment and technologies of developing the Russian Arctic shelf is inefficient.

It is forecasted that in the coming decade, the continuing global warming process will make the majority of regions of the Barents Sea and the Kara Sea – where a number of large and gigantic fields have already been discovered – more accessible for conducting geological exploration drilling. It is possible to use here the traditional types of off shore drilling units with a low ice rate. This will totally eliminate any technical and technological problems of drilling. The USA are expected to enter the market of arctic hydrocarbons from new fields by the middle of the 30s of the 21 century. One can forecast a substantial output from exploiting Russian fields to be achieved by the same time. Hence, imposed sanctions are mainly aimed at delaying the implementation of Russian Arctic region projects and synchronizing them with American projects in order to create extra competition for Russian oil industry and for selling its products on the global market.

Low global price for hydrocarbons and financial sanctions can exert more infl uence on the development of Russian Arctic fields than restricted access to equipment and technologies.
