Abstract: The article provides a methodological justification for dividing the space of regional interactions into the residential-agglomeration environment and the institutional-market environment, which jointly shape the socio-economic environment of the region. A grouping of statistical indicators affecting the quality of life of the region's population (residential-agglomeration environment) and conditions for doing business in the region (institutional-market environment) is undertaken. The authors propose an economic model that mathematically describes the multiplier effect of the influence exerted by institutional and market transformations on sustainable regional development. The paper shows that positive changes in the regional institutional-market environment are the driver of comprehensive sustainable regional development. The aim of the study is to mathematically describe the multiplier effect generated by positive changes in the institutional-market environment of the region. Regional environments have been selected as the object of the study. The subject of study is the methodological and mathematical approach to the analysis of the socio-economic environment of the region. The main data have been obtained from official sources. The objectives include grouping statistical indicators in the residential-agglomeration and institutional-market environments of the region; dichotomizing the impact of the residential-agglomeration and institutional-market regional environments on integrated sustainable development of the region; providing a mathematical description of the influence exerted by the residential-agglomeration and institutional-market regional environments on the region’s integrated sustainable development, and highlighting the multiplier effect generated by positive changes in the institutional-market environment. The study allows drawing significant conclusions. First, the complexity and balance of regional development are mostly determined by the state of business, which shapes the quality of the institutional-market environment. Second, improvement in the quality of institutions and the market generates transmission mechanisms that have a positive impact on the region's population life quality. Third, the interaction between the institutional-market and residential-agglomeration environments results in an integrated sustainable development of the region. Fourth, the methodological basis for the mechanism of interaction between regional environments makes it possible to eliminate regional disproportions and optimize medium-term regional policy.
