Abstract

УДК 330.342; JEL Classification: Q044Purpose is to clarify the essence of the definition of "economic security of the enterprise", as well as the fact that based on consideration of the main approaches and methods of assessment of the level of economic security of the enterprise to develop an option for calculating the functional components in the general context of economic security of industrial enterprises. Methodology of research. To achieve this aim in scientific work the following general scientific and special methods and techniques of research were used: methods of generalization and abstraction - to clarify the essence of economic security of the industrial enterprise, theoretical foundations and tools of economic security management of the enterprise; a systematic and integrated approach to determining the choice of economic security components of the enterprise and to develop options for their assessment and the method of analysis and synthesis to identify threats to the main functional components of the protection system. Findings. In the article the analysis of scientific literature made it possible for authors to determine the most comprehensive and meaningful determination of the definition of "economic security of the enterprise"; studied economic security components and on this basis developed analytical tool for assessment of the level of economic security of the enterprise. The main features and factors of economic security management of the enterprise are determined. It is justified that productive and effective activity of the enterprise should include not only research of its environment and the nature of its changes, but also the opportunity to respond adequately to these changes, because unsuccessful or untimely reaction can lead to significant losses, implementation of ineffective management decisions and termination of enterprise activity in general. In order to increase the effectiveness of economic security management of enterprises, an improved methodological approach of economic security assessment it has been proposed to identify the level of adaptation of the enterprise to the negative influences of external factors. The emphasis is that for economic security management it is necessary to develop target criteria for assessing its level. The solution to this problem requires the development of effective methods’ system. It is determined that it is difficult to assess the state of economic security of an industrial enterprise in all functional components objectively. The reason is that there are such indicators that are difficult to measure with specific numbers, forms, and quantities. These components include intellectual, staff, political and legal, technical and technological. It is difficult to determine the numerical importance of each of them. It is noted that the only methodology for calculating the level of economic security does not exist. Originality. The most comprehensive and meaningful determination of the definition "economic security of the enterprise" is identified. In order to increase the effectiveness of economic security management of the enterprises, an improved methodological approach of security risk assessment based not on the use of 9 economic security components, offered by some experts, but 5 (financial, intellectual and staff, technical and technological, political and legal, innovative). Practical value is to improve assessment of the economic security of the enterprise, which allows us to identify an influence of the external environment for the enterprise's activities and take measures to neutralize the identified negative influences. The developed assessment of the effectiveness of the mechanism of economic security management can be used by the enterprise as a final stage in the economic security management
