The experience of other countries suggests the possibility of international financial assistance in the framework of support for deep reforms. The Ukraine – European Union Association Agreement formed for new opportunities, including access to EU structural funds and other financial instruments. Topical for Ukraine's European integration experience of neighboring countries and prospects of introduction to the possibilities of using EU structural and investments funds. On the EU experience in the field of formation and implementation of decentralized regional development policies contribute to the success of reforms in Ukraine.

The purpose of the article is to outline the concepts, trends, characteristics and mechanisms of formation of a decentralized policy of the European Union and of the EU structural and investments funds and new opportunities for Ukraine in the context EU-association. The period from association to full membership in the EU candidate countries provided for deep structural reforms in key areas and preparation of governmental and non-governmental agencies and personnel for efficient administration of new policies and financial flows. The experience of neighbors that have become full members of the EU is useful for Ukraine. Experts point out that effective implementation of regional policy funds is largely dependent on the ability (ie, the ability to quickly and efficiently implement resources provided) absorption regions and districts. The level of preparedness of local administrations to implement EU funds in most cases remains low. Since it is the local authorities are the main "players" in the implementation of EU structural and investments funds, the level of training for local authorities and their susceptibility to corruption depends on the effect of EU structural assistance. In the end the article notes that after entry into the EU-association of Ukraine appeared obligation to deep reform of society in order to harmonize with the standards of the European Community. As the European experience, it is time to shape the ability of local administrations to rapid and efficient implementation of EU structural and investments funds.
