The formation of full-fledged financial sovereignty is relevant for all states of Greater Eurasia, and therefore it is advisable to implement this task through joint and coordinated efforts within the framework of a broad Eurasian partnership.

Aim. Find out the most promising areas for the formation of financial sovereignty within the framework of a large Eurasian partnership.

Methods. A comprehensive analysis of the causes and conditions for the dependence of national economies on external financial systems, a comparative analysis of the factors of Western components dominance in the global financial architecture.

Results. The main directions of the formation of the financial sovereignty for the countries of Greater Eurasia on the basis of increasing the level of independence of national financial systems from the Western infrastructure of the financial sector are identified. The most promising methods for achieving this goal are proposed based on the creation of new types of reserve assets within the framework of a large Eurasian partnership, which are an alternative to debt obligations of the United States and European countries, as well as the formation of an integrated system for financial instruments trading by the countries of Greater Eurasia.
