DOI: 10.52363/passa-2024.1-21

Abstract

The authors determine the positions of Ukraine in global digital economy indices on the basis of the local governments. The authors indicate the following subsystems of providing the digital economy infrastructure: technical (ICT capabilities in terms of individual sectors of the economy); information and technological (digital technologies); staffing (human capital); regulatory (institutional environment); financial and economic (investment opportunities of economic entities). The authors indicate a number of generally accepted parameters that allow to determine the level of digitalization within the economy and society: Internet coverage; the use of broadband Internet; the percentage of smartphone owners; mobile Internet coverage; the share of society with digital skills, public online services, etc. The authors propose to use the following main rating indices of digitalization: Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI); Digital Evolution Index (DEI); Digital Adoption Index (DAI); ICT Development Index (IDI); Global Innovation Index (GII); Networked Readiness Index (NRI); Digitization Index of the Economy (Boston Consulting Group ‒ e-Intensity); IMD World Digital Competitiveness Index (WDCI).

Key words: public administration, digital economy, global indices, digital economy infrastructure, local governments.
