The revival of interest in theoretical research of such legal phenomena as bankruptcy and competitive process in particular, in independent Ukraine, is associated with the enactment of the first national legislative act, which was devoted to the regulation of material and procedural relations of bankruptcy.

In fact, legal science since the late 90-s of the last century, being placed in qualitatively different conditions compared to previous ones. It paid considerable attention to rethinking the conceptual foundations of bankruptcy law, which began to be actively and consistently developed in the scientific literature, including such current issues: improvement and codification of bankruptcy legislation; optimization of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of bankruptcy; state policy in the field of bankruptcy; determining the legal nature of bankruptcy relations; specifics of the legal status of the parties and other participants in the bankruptcy relationship; procedural principles and features of bankruptcy proceedings; definition and content of bankruptcy proceedings and others.

The purpose of the article is: to highlight the influence of the achievements of the dogma of national bankruptcy law and its component – the dogma of the competitive process on the improvement of the latest Ukrainian bankruptcy legislation and its application practices.

It is found that the practical significance of the doctrinal provisions of the competitive process lies in their implementation in law-making and law-enforcement activities.

The author concludes that the legislator in improving the legal regulation of bankruptcy should take into account the results of doctrinal research in this area, which aimed at solving global problems of restoring the solvency of businesses and settling the debt obligations of citizens.
