Determined the main factors of the formation of conditions for financial instability in the economy under the influence of the consequences of uncontrolled movement of international capital flows and revival of foreign trade.
As a result of the comparison of modern views with the classical origins of the theory of free movement of capital and the analysis of empirical data on the practical impact of financial openness on economic stability, it is substantiated that the modern rational approach is more consistent with the classical origins of the theory of financial integration and the practical needs for stable economic growth.
