Keywords: financial transformation, agrarian companies, international capital markets, investments, instruments, innovative financial strategies, diversification of capital sources, ESG

Abstract

The article reveals the features of the financial transformation of agricultural companies in the process of entering international capital markets by expanding the issues of ensuring the investment attractiveness of large agribusiness enterprises, improving financing instruments and removing barriers to the integration of the agro-food sector into the global economy. The processes of financial transformation of agricultural companies aimed at ensuring their competitiveness and investment attractiveness through the use of innovative financial strategies, digital technologies and transparency standards are substantiated. It is proved that financial transformation should be considered as a component of the general corporate modernization of business models in order to strengthen the importance of capital raising instruments, in particular, from IPOs, bond issuance and the introduction of the latest criteria for an ESG-oriented financial strategy in order to increase the efficiency, stability and transparency of agricultural companies.
