Then, the main purpose of the financial system in the economy is to ensure long-term economic growth through effective financing of the economy.

Based on the research conclusions of the tendency and the strength of influence of such factors as the economic growth of per capita consumption, the value of the discount rate, the rate ratio of issued bank loans and deposits, the share of investment in fixed assets in GDP and inflation on the size of the financial sector. The results may be used by scientists and economists forecasting the development of the national economy and individual financial and non-financial sectors of the economy. The results may be of interest to financial institutions and economists who study the same or similar issues.
