governments of developing countries face problematic issues regarding financing,
implementation, and infrastructure support (including agricultural projects) to provide and
support services and economic growth in general.
The experience of foreign countries shows that public-private partnership projects
can improve service, and infrastructure and can contribute to economic "updating".
It is worth noting that public-private partnerships are generally defined as a way of
contracting for the development and maintenance of infrastructure services, using the
innovation and skills of the private sector to manage operations that often involve private
financing. However, a single generally accepted definition of public-private partnership has
not yet been formed. In particular, different definitions are used to describe the project
depending on the country. Public-private partnership is a universal form of cooperation
between the state/territorial communities and businesses, which allows for solving a wide
range of problems related to digitization (Vinnyk, 2020).
Digitization of monetary settlements in public-private partnerships has many
advantages for both public and private partners. Thus, the private partner gets the
opportunity to innovate and interact with customers, and the public partner can regulate,
monitor, and ensure trust in such a partner. A major role in ensuring trust is a clear
understanding of legal regulation and the consistency of the state's actions both internally
and during communication and cooperation with other states.
International experience shows that many countries successfully implement projects
in the field of public-private partnerships and digitize monetary transactions for such
projects. Projects in the field of introducing innovations in agriculture and infrastructure
projects are being successfully implemented. At the same time, there are different models of
such digitization: from innovations in currency (implementation of digital currency) to the
actual process of making transactions. The differences are seen precisely in the variety of
digital currency. Although, the experience of foreign countries in embedding digital currency
in other assets and incentivizing them is also interesting (smart contracts to program the
simultaneous exchange of currency and bonds). At the same time, as foreign practice shows,
it is also important to ensure the participation of a private partner for the digitization of
monetary payments, because, for the public sector, the implementation of innovations is a
complex, expensive, and potentially inefficient process.
