Abstract
The subject of the study is fiscal sustainability in the EAEU Economic Union. The purpose of the work is an analytical assessment of fiscal sustainability in the territory of the EAEU, determining the need for coordination of fiscal policy and proposing joint financial mechanisms to ensure it. In the course of the work, both general scientific and methods of economic and statistical analysis of fiscal and macroeconomic indicators that determine the sustainability of economic development were used. The practical purpose and scientific value of the research results is to identify problems of fiscal sustainability in the EAEU, identify integration fiscal risks and justify the use of financial stabilization mechanisms. The integration approach proposed by the author in ensuring fiscal stability implies using the advantages of a coordinating integration policy and the use of joint financial institutions on the territory of the EAEU. It is concluded that closer integration within the framework of financial cooperation and the creation of stabilization mechanisms is necessary to ensure fiscal stability and offset integration financial risks in the EAEU territory.
