DIRECTIONS THE DEVELOPMENT OF FINANCIAL REGULATION OF INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES FOR ENSURING STRUCTURAL BALANCE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

This study examines the role of international financial regulation in enhancing economic stability, in particular the resource-dependent economies are vulnerable to global shocks. Acompression study of regulatory frameworks in countries like Russia, Venezuela, the USA, Canada, Malaysia, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway has been conducted. Special attention is paid to how oil revenue volatility, geopolitical disruptions, and non-economic export constraints affect economic resilience in the mentioned countries. Accordingly, the methodology of the study is based on comparative case studies, with a combination of research tools including the qualitative analysis of financial policies, trade data, and macroeconomic indicators to assess regulatory adaptations aimed at mitigating external risks and promoting sectoral growth. The scientific novelty lies in financial regulatory framing as a means of aligning extractive industry investments with sustainable economic objectives, especially in monopolistic and export-oriented economies. By emphasizing the dual need for regulation to meet short-term fiscal requirements while promoting long-term innovation in upstream oil production and refining, it differs from previous works. The author concludes that strategic fiscal regulation, specifically policies that guide investments in extractive sectors, is critical to reduce structural imbalances in resource-dependent countries. Prioritizing sustainable practices and technological modernization through these regulations will promote diversification and resilience. This approach is indispensable in the midst of global uncertainty, providing a blueprint for aligning immediate revenue priorities with sustainable and equitable development in oil-dependent economies.
