The purpose of this article is to study the processes of regional integration and its particular features in
the frame of the Eurasian Economic Union formation and their impact on the development of transnational
corporations in the region. The authors used the scientific and methodological basis including an integrated
approach and economic, institutional and organizational methods, theoretical and methodological studies of
domestic and foreign scientists. In order to achieve the defined aim of this research, the authors used the retrospective method and method of comparative analysis, studied the statistical data, including the reports of
the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development and the World Bank’s ratings. The authors studied the historical background of the Eurasian Economic Union, analyzed the current economic situation in its
Member States, and considered the experience of other regional alliances. According to the results of the research, the authors formulated the conclusions in the context of the most likely prospects for the development
of transnational corporations in the frame of the integration of the Member States of the Eurasian Economic
Union. In particular, the study of the experience of other regional associations presumes that the process of
regional economic integration will have a positive impact on the dynamics of the attraction of foreign direct
investment inflows in the region. In addition, regional integration will mitigate the problem of “limited” markets of the Member States of the Economic Union and, therefore, will help to increase the amount of investment resources in the manufacturing industry and services sector of the economy. The creation of the common energy markets in the framework of the new regional association would strengthen the resource-oriented domestic large-scale business and prepare the groundwork for the emergence of new transnational
corporations, cooperating within the Eurasian Economic Union. The research results can be applied in theory as a basis for the further studies of regional economic integration in the frame of the Eurasian Economic
Union. Besides this, the analytical results of the research are of practical importance because they can be
used for the purpose of the further development of the Eurasian Economic Union and harmonization of legislation of the Member States.
