Modern international economic relations in the context of political risks and global geo-economic factors
Full text linkIntroduction: International trade is the main direction of development of international economic cooperation and formation of the world economic space. Given the relevance of the study, the purpose of the research is to identify current trends in the development of international economic relations and develop ways to improve the efficiency of international activity of European countries and the world. Methods: In the process of conducting the study, general scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, generalisation, and systematisation were applied. Results: As a result of the study, the authors analysed statistical material on the development of international trade and found that modern international economic relations are primarily implemented through international trade. It is stated that only 3 countries today control almost a third of the total international market, while the rest of the countries should focus on developing and implementing strategies for developing trade potential. Conclusions: The authors propose three main strategies for enhancing a country\u27s position in the international market and provides a description of each of them: a strategy of financial support for accelerated growth of presence in the international market; a strategy for ensuring sustainable economic growth; and an anti-crisis strategy for promoting the world market. It is proved that for most modern countries of Europe and the world it is possible to focus on ensuring the development of domestic production potential and developing a presence in international markets, provided that they follow global trends

Optimized design of digital animation based on virtual reality technology
Full text linkBackground: The production of moving images using computer systems is referred to as digital animation, or laptop-generated imagery (LGI). By using virtual landscapes and devices to create immersive settings, virtual reality (VR) improves this experience. The application of virtual reality (VR) technology and optimization algorithms to digital animation character technology is investigated in this study.Aim: The study aims to enhance the shape, motion, and interplay of animated characters using an upgraded Penguin Search Optimization (UPSO) algorithm, while also employing VR for motion design and scene communication.Methods: The research employs motion captures facts, scenario descriptions, and the character models to optimize the shape, actions, and interactions of animation characters. To improve those components, the UPSO set of rules is applied, and the efficiency of the optimized animation in realistic virtual worlds is accessed via VR generation.Results: The adoption of the UPSO algorithm resulted in a significant improvement in the realism of character actions (95%), character quality (92%), and overall product satisfaction (93%). The UPSO algorithm also achieved an accuracy of 97.03%.Conclusion: This study contributes to the advancement of animation by combining optimization algorithms with VR technology, resulting in a more immersive and appealing visual experience for user
The role of financial literacy in economic development
Full text linkIntroduction: The study of financial literacy has proven its role in ensuring the well-being of citizens of different countries. Financial knowledge and skills affect citizens\u27 lives, such as managing expenses and income, investing in stocks or somewhat risky digital assets, retirement savings and retirement planning. Objective: This study focuses on the specifics of the impact of financial literacy on economic growth, stability and economic inequality. Methods: The article applies a systematic approach to highlighting financial literacy issues in the context of economic growth, stability, and inequality. The methodology includes structural and functional analysis, methods of synthesis, and comparison. Results: The article reveals a moderate direct positive correlation between financial literacy and the well-being of the population of countries, measured in GDP per capita at purchasing power parity. At the same time, the level of prosperity of a country\u27s population has a lesser impact on the development of citizens\u27 financial skills. A high level of awareness of macroeconomic indicators (inflation, purchasing power, interest rates) affects the ability of citizens to maintain a high level of financial well-being, plan savings, and avoid debt. Conclusions: Given the above, there is a need to develop the financial skills of the most vulnerable segments of the population. Financial knowledge and skills, such as using digital technologies in financial management, contribute to effectively managing financial resources
The impact of product innovation and service quality on survival recovery of msmes: the mediating role of financial performance
Full text linkIntroduction: The innovation business model explores the development of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia between two time periods. In describing the condition of MSMEs, those who regulate MSMEs and policymakers in general are expected to help small and medium-sized enterprises improve service quality and product innovation for performance during the pandemic.
Methods: This study employs a quantitative and purposive sampling approach based on a questionnaire disseminated to MSMEs in Indonesia as the research object. Data analysis was conducted using Stata version 17 for multiple linear regression analysis and the classic assumption test with 218 respondents. There are two time periods, namely before 2019–2020 and during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021–2022. Before and during the pandemic, the innovation business model of service quality and product innovation had a positive influence on MSMEs\u27 performance in Indonesia.
Results: This became clear when we compared the quality of service, product innovation, and customer loyalty separately, contrasting the regression results of the circumstances before and during the pandemic and their impact on Indonesian MSMEs. A service quality approach (SERVQUAL) was adopted to measure service quality, which discusses five quality aspects: tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy.
Conclusions: This approach bears similarities to product innovation and performance variables, whose analyses parallel those of the quality-of-service variable
