Findings - The rationale for choosing the balance of payments regulation policy based on using some theories aimed at searching for an optimal balance or so-called equilibrium between the development of external and internal factors of the economy Thus, the study has shown that the practical implementation of these theoretical concepts finds its application in various ways of equalizing the balance of payments.
