Th e author’s defi nition of ownership is given. Stages of the privatization process are defi ned. At the fi rst stage (1991–1993) the state pursued largely fi scal aims by receiving non-tax revenues. Th e second stage (1994–2008) was characterised by the country’s transition to a market economy, an increase in the share of private property, and an increase in business owner- ship. Th e third period (2008 — present) is characterised by the active development of stock market instruments, which are shares of reformed enterprises. Both posi- tive results and problems in the reform of state ownership are highlighted.
