( Pp. 70-75)

The purpose of this article is to identify the key problems of state support for small and medium-sized businesses and propose ways to solve them. The study identified the key prerequisites for the emergence of problems of state support for small and medium-sized businesses, which have different origins, but are closely related to each other. Further, the main manifestations of problematic aspects of state support for small and medium-sized businesses were considered. In the course of the study, the current directions of solving the problems of state support for small and medium-sized businesses were studied, as well as their assessment was carried out. Based on the analysis, promising ways to solve the problems of state support for small and medium-sized businesses were proposed and described. Conclusions. The key prerequisites for the emergence of problems of state support for small and medium-sized businesses can be identified at the stage of origin, as a result of which the possibility of minimizing their development is manifested. The existing areas of support are effective to a certain extent, but they require not only improvement, but also expansion. Promising areas for solving problematic aspects of state support for small and medium-sized businesses are associated with both general development vectors and the development of individual procedures and measures.
