The subject of the study is the digitalization of the global services market.

The analysis made it possible to determine the specifics of the digitalization of the services market, namely: a) the emergence of digital services in the context of the globality of the market and country concentration; c) the large-scale development of digital trade (domestic and cross-border), while maintaining geographical concentration (China, USA, EU, Japan, India); d) the emergence of a pronounced versatility of the services market (vertical integration of digital platforms); e) the absence of a large number of intermediaries; b) optimization of the impact of certain types of costs under the influence of technological advantages; e) additional opportunities to stimulate / limit competition through the digital format of relations; k) transformation of the traditional infrastructure of the service market and the emergence of technological advantages. Thus, the consequences of the digitalization of the services market are manifested in the following: - transformation of the structure and configuration of the services market and international trade in services, including the withdrawal of trade in real goods and services to the digital environment and the emergence of digital services; - the emergence of new opportunities for businesses to maneuver in the services market through digitalization, increasing the inclusiveness of trade in services and blurring the lines between domestic and cross-border trade and sectors in the digital economy; - strengthening global competition and moving it to the intangible sphere, which can be radical for traditional markets.
