Human civilization is constantly faced with global and national financial, environmental, political and food crisis, creating a constant pressure on the economic and social environment of states. However, the current global instability feature is that it in addition to financial and economic components it also has a social one.

Already it is clear that social stratification is growing deeper , more acute risks of decay and degradation of society. As Hzh._Kolodko says this current crisis could not  occur in countries with well-functioning social market economy, such as the Scandinavian countries, - rich soil for it are conditions of neoliberal Anglo-American model [1, p. 4].

In our opinion, among the main factors of global financial instability is to provide the following:

·                   transition to a post-industrial stage of civilization, becoming the sixth technological structure (typical for which is nano-and biotechnology, information products); 

·                   existence of disparities and contradictions between countries of first and third world (in 2012 the correlation of GDP per capita in the richest countries and the average income in the poorest countries is 140:1, and in 1960 - 30:1);        

·                   significant dollarization of the global economy (if in 1995 in circulation was 380 billion dollars. (2/3 outside the U.S.), in 2012 this figure exceeded 2 trillion dollars);                 

·                   the decisive role of the United States in international monetary-credit institutions (IMF, World Bank, etc.);

·                   deregulation of global financial markets and the lack of effective global coordination and control system on Banking Supervision (the total assets of the five bank holding companies in the United States at the beginning of 2012 amounted to 8 trillion. dollars and total assets of the entire banking system exceed 12 trillion);                  

·                   rapid growth in the financial services sector and increase their mass compared to the real sector of the economy (in the 2012 issue of derivatives accounted for over 500 trillion dollars. U.S.);            

·                   increasing debt and excessive consumption (U.S. commitment to the world is 3.6 trillion dollars.               

Recently there has been scientific community in the search for effective ways of overcoming the global financial instability. Since 2012, central banks of different countries use of real liquidity support and market stabilization QE (eng. - Quantitative Easing), LTRO (Long Term Refinancing Operation), and the ESM (European Stability Mechanism). For example, just because of these financial operations The U.S. Federal Reserve is pouring into the country $ 4 billion a day [1] [2]. ] However, the struggle with the effects of a high debt burden by creating more debt does not solve the problem but only pushes them over time. So the statement of Harvard professor N._Ferhyuson is entirely accurate  about this, "Planet Earth is a dwarf planet on the background of" finance ", also the last much faster spins on its axis" [3, p. 132].

It is obvious that nowadays no national financial system can not operate in isolation. Therefore, given that the holders of American securities by major European banks (Credit Agricole, Intesa SanPaolo, BNP Paribas, UniCredit, Commerzbank, ING Bank, SEB, etc..), problems in the U.S. banking sector will lead to increased financial and economic problems in European countries. Under these conditions, the most likely scenario for future deployment of global financial instability is a possible collapse of the euro, due to intensification of the contradictions between the major donor countries of the European Union (Germany and France) and debtor countries (Ireland, Portugal, Greece, Spain and Cyprus) [4 ]. Moreover, given the fact that Ukraine's economy is directly linked to European countries, there is a high probability that in the case of deterioration of the Western banks and companies of the domestic financial system will be drawn into the crisis processes.

Thus, the peculiarities of the current global financial instability should be the subject of constant attention of the national regulator to an adequate and timely response to new problems, prevent the decrease of financial stability of banks and reasonable prediction of further development of the national economy.
