Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of foreign experience of studying the factors explaining the use of international and national currencies in foreign trade. Recently, the interest in these issues has increased significantly due to the active efforts of the EAEU countries to disclose the integration potential, in particular through the expansion of settlements in national currencies to minimize costs and risks. Since the beginning of 2017 the Eurasian Economic Commission has begun preparations for the research based on a survey on the use of national currencies in settlements between the EAEU countries. In light of this process special attention is paid in this article to foreign approaches to information support for the analysis of the use of currencies in foreign trade operations, the organization of surveys, the sampling of the companies under study, and the analysis of the reasons for success research.
