The research employs a macroeconomic lens to examine how budget allocation, fiscal decentralization, and intergovernmental transfers impact sustainable regional development. Using statistical and comparative methods, the study identifies systemic imbalances in per capita GDP, expenditure structures, and fiscal autonomy across Ukrainian regions.
