CANADA AND ECONOMIC SECURITY: THE WAY AHEAD

In August-September 2024, Global Affairs Canada held public consultations on “Potential New Measures to Advance and Defend Canada’s Economic Security Interests.” The inputs provided will help the Government of Canada update or develop approaches and measures that would advance Canada’s economic security interests. The following analysis and recommendations were submitted by the author in response to the call for expert views on the subject. The author argues that, in addition to public consultations, Canada still needs a strategic framework to think about national security, prosperity and economic security in a comprehensive, whole-of-governmet fashion and makes five specific recommendations. Canada should: 1. Develop, promulgate and implement a whole-of-government National Economic Security Strategy; 2. Undertake an in-depth intelligence-based all-source threat assessment of foreign economic threats to Canada, including an unclassified version for Canadians, prior to deciding on the measures to be taken in the National Economic Security Strategy to secure Canada’s economic security and prosperity; 3. Undertake a full cost analysis of the gains and losses to the Canadian economy and individual economic security from the applications of all the measures delineated in the National Economic Security Strategy; 4. Undertake an in-depth analysis of how allies and other states would respond to the implementation of a new National Economic Security Strategy (taking into account the best, worst and most likely outcomes) and develop options, to be included in the Strategy, to mitigate the risk of harmful outcomes; and 5. Consider developing a National Industrial Strategy and an International Trade Strategy alongside or as key components of the National Economic Security Strategy.

Оценка результативности мер госполитики в сфере реализации стратегического национального приоритета «Экономическая безопасность»

In the context of intensifying external challenges and threats to ensure economic security, it is extremely important to ensure the continuity of state policy measures across the entire vertical of strategic planning documents, to prevent semantic deformation of goal setting, and to prevent the presence of contradictions both in the substantive formulations and in the quantitative values of target indicators of documents. The National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation, adopted on July 2, 2021 by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 400, justified the need to monitor the implementation of the nine strategic national priorities formulated in it, including the priority “Economic Security”. A comparative analysis of indicators for monitoring the state of economic security available in the list of official statistical surveillance was carried out. It is shown that in order to comply with the principle of balance in the strategic planning system, it is first necessary to update and ensure mutual compliance of the goals and objectives of the Economic Security Strategy (approved by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of May 13, 2017 No. 208) with the goals and objectives of the strategic national priority “Economic Security” from the National Security Strategy, taking into account the challenges and threats specified in this document, which should become the basis for the development and regulatory consolidation of a list of indicators for the implementation of the corresponding national priority.

PUBLIC MANAGEMENT OF CURRENCY SECURITY IN UKRAINE: CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES IN MODERN REALITIES

The article examines issues related to the effectiveness of public administration in the field of monetary security in Ukraine. The article presents general characteristics of the nature, state, and dynamics of the effectiveness of public administration in the field of currency security in Ukraine. The assessment of the current state and dynamics of the currency security indicators in Ukraine was made on the basis of the characteristics of the state monetary policy components indicators compared to similar indicators in Poland. The characteristics of exchange rate dynamics, GDP dynamics, and labour market dynamics in Ukraine and Poland are presented. The main economic factors affecting the exchange rate, namely the inflation rate and the state of the balance of trade account of the balance of payments have been considered. The main factors reducing the efficiency of Ukraine's monetary security administration are detailed. The dynamics of the indicators of the level of Ukraine's shadow economy proved to be contrary to the goals and objectives of the "Strategy of Ukraine's Economic Security until 2025". The ways to minimize the negative influencing factors and, accordingly, strengthen the implementation of monetary and credit policy and improve the efficiency of state management of monetary security of Ukraine were proposed. The development of currency circulation in Ukraine is ensured by the state's influence on monetary relations by specially authorized bodies with different legal statuses and powers. In practice, difficulties arise in the application of monetary law in the process of currency regulation. The mechanisms of interaction between state control bodies in the field of currency regulation have not yet been established, which weakens the position of the state in the currency market and hinders the process of integration into the international economic system.

Tax control as a tool to curb the shadow economy

Subject. Numerous scientific works in the field of tax administration are devoted to the problems of tax regulation, the imperfections of current tax legislation, as well as the identification of the causes of the functioning of the shadow economy and ways of tax evasion. However, the issues of economic security of the state and tax control in its provision have been little studied today, despite the entry into force in the legal field more than six years ago of the Decree of the President of Russia dated May 13, 2017 No. 208 "On the Strategy of Economic Security of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030". Thus, the object of the study is tax control, the subject is the effectiveness of on–site tax control as a factor in identifying and suppressing shadow activities in order to ensure the economic security of the country and its public legal entities. Purposes. To summarize approaches to the definition of the term "shadow economy", to distinguish methods for identifying factors of business fragmentation and optimizing the tax burden. Based on the data obtained, we propose an approach to the tax administration process that allows us to quickly respond to "risk signals" in the process of selecting candidates for tax control measures and further conducting tax audits, with a high probability of their effectiveness.Relevance. Tax control is an important regulator of the economic security of the state. The issues of its improvement in order to increase its efficiency and effectiveness have been important at all times. Currently, issues related to the shadow economy are one of the urgent problems affecting the economic development of the country and the functioning of tax systems. Understanding the term "shadow economy" and developing effective counteraction methods are important for tax authorities and society as a whole.Methodology. In the existing conditions of the study, the analysis of the database of tax authorities is carried out (without providing information about taxpayers), the analysis of judicial practice, and methods of logical and statistical analysis are also used. Thus, in the course of the study, the works of foreign and domestic authors were analyzed in order to study the terms "shadow economy" and "business fragmentation". The data of statistical reporting of tax authorities are analyzed, the dynamics of efficiency and effectiveness of on-site tax control are analyzed. The arbitration practice of court cases on the application of business fragmentation schemes by taxpayers has been studied and analyzed, which made it possible to identify a number of distinctive features of business fragmentation from its optimization in order to ensure the sustainable development of organizations (taxpayers) and, based on these indicators, propose a methodology for identifying tax evasion schemes in order to select candidates for on-site tax control.Conclusions. The conducted research allows us to develop the theoretical aspects of such concepts as "shadow economy" and "business fragmentation". Having analyzed the works of domestic and foreign researchers, the author substantiates his definition of the concept of "business fragmentation". The author provides a system of the most significant indicators that can be fully taken as the basis for risk benchmarks signaling the use of fictitious tax optimization schemes by the taxpayer.

Formation of economic indicators of national security in the context of business digitalization and changes in the economy

Abstract. Today, Ukraine's economic development is taking place in the context of market competition, negative phenomena in the foreign economic sphere, and most importantly, russia's full-scale military aggression. At the same time, economic relations in the country are characterized by such undesirable phenomena as the shadow economy, economic inequality of business participants, growth of external debts, decline in economic activity, deficits of the state and territorial budgets, unprofitability of business entities, migration processes, unemployment, and poverty. The article examines the content of the concept of economic security in the context of the national security component, which is determined by a set of tasks based on the implementation of the Economic Security Strategy of Ukraine for the period up to 2025. The author analyzes the dynamics of indicators that determine the state of economic security of Ukraine and the existing threats in the national economy. In order to monitor the state of economic security in accordance with the Strategy, it is proposed to fulfill the task of its scientific support, to develop methodological recommendations and a mechanism for interpreting the integral indicator. At present, there is no information on the level of economic security of Ukraine on the official websites of the legislative and executive branches of government since 2021. The system of reservations regarding the indicators for assessing the economic security of Ukraine proposed in the Strategy is substantiated. A simplified list of indicators for monitoring the state of economic security is defined and interval signs of economic development scenarios at the level of optimistic, pessimistic and basic characteristics are developed for the integral indicator. The assessment of the status of economic security objects (the State, territorial communities, types of economic activity, business entities) is significantly influenced by the development of digitalization of the economy. It is established that in our country the processes of digitalization do not have a cross-cutting connection «business entities – types of economic activity – territorial communities – the State», but arise and develop locally within individual business and government structures.

지정학/지경학의 이중 도전과 한국의 경제안보 전략

This article sheds light on the dual nature of South Korea's economic security strategy: long-term continuity and changes that reflect structural shifts in the internal and external environment. South Korea’s economic security strategy has undergone several phases of transformation from the early 1960s to the present, while maintaining continuity. The continuities of South Korea’s economic security strategy are the combination of geopolitics and geo-economic responses, the lack of economic coercion, the mercantilist character, and the industrial policy-based strategy. One can also find a change in South Korea’s economic security strategy in that it closely integrates high technology into its economic security strategy. Specifically, it involves reducing vulnerabilities in the supply chain of high-tech industries, strengthening high-tech capabilities, and combining industrial policy and high-tech strategies.

High technology and economic statecraft: the emergence of techno-economic statecraft in South Korea

Abstract This study identifies the core of Korea’s economic statecraft as (1) diversification of the supply chain of high-tech industries to proactively mitigate vulnerability to economic coercion, (2) the pursuit of technological sovereignty to increase self-sufficiency in advanced technologies, (3) governance reforms to strengthen supply chain resilience, and (4) industrial policies to enhance the competitiveness of advanced industries. The four strategies mentioned above all have in common that they are predicated on the strategic utilization of high technology. Based on these traits, I define Korea’s new economic security strategy as techno-economic statecraft. Korea’s techno-economic statecraft has two features. First, Korea utilizes high technology as a nexus between economy and security. Second, Korea uses high technology as a nexus to link domestic and foreign policies.

The Strategic Repositioning of the European Union in the New Global Geopolitical Context

The transformations in the world economy, the globalization of information, the globalization of security issues have brought non-state powers to the position of main actors of the contemporary geopolitical phenomenon, in which transnational, international or supranational organizations play a special role. The unprecedented period of peace and stability that Europe went through at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century is due to the existence of the European Union. The European Union is a relevant actor in the international arena; the emergence of the European Union radically changed the European and global geopolitical balance. Having an extensive network of economic relations worldwide, carrying out crisis management missions and humanitarian actions, the European Union cannot be omitted from any geopolitical analysis. In a very dynamic and unpredictable global geopolitical and geoeconomic context, the European Union launched on June 20, 2023 the European Strategy for Economic Security, a strategy that emphasizes bilateral and plurilateral cooperation - in different formats and degrees of institutionalization, from the G-7 to high-level economic talks, investment partnerships and commodity clubs. The European Union wants to reduce, for the next decades, the economic risks related to dependence on China. The strategy outlines how the European Union - a key trading partner for both China and the United States - is trying to manage its economic dependence on Beijing and avoid the kind of economic rupture with Russia that followed the invasion of Ukraine. The paper aims to analyze what China's "risk reduction" means for Europe and, at the same time, to understand how the European Union's approach to economic security will shape future relations in terms of geopolitics and geoeconomics at the international and regional level.

Japan’s economic security strategy: Securitization of China’s rising economic power?

The concept of economic security has received special attention from the Japanese government since 2019: several specialized state agencies have been created, and in May 2022 the Diet approved the Act on Provision of Economic Security. Economic security-related notions have also been included in the new National Security Strategy, published in December 2022. In this document, economic security is defined as protection of ‘Japan’s national interests, such as peace, security, and economic prosperity, by carrying out economic measures.’ It shall be noted that the current understanding of economic security is different from the one previously assumed, which was largely concerned with the provision of natural resources and food. We observe the concrete measures proposed in connection with the concept of economic security and highlight that the new understanding of the concept has been introduced in relation to the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China, in which Japan supports the U.S. in its efforts against the certain advanced-tech companies from China. From the point of view of the securitization theory, claims that certain industries of the PRC’s economy present a threat to Japan’s security could be seen as ‘speech-acts’ aiming to legitimize the employment of extraordinary political measures. We emphasize that the apparent success of such speech-acts is grounded in the Japanese experts’ assessment that there are emergent technologies with the possibility of dual commercial and military use. In conclusion, we examine the securitization of China’s economy by the Japanese government in its current regional and global context and argue that it could be interpreted both as a signal to the U.S. and as an attempt to gain leverage in the competition between the Japanese and the Chinese infrastructural projects in the Asia-Pacific.

RESEARCH OF KEY INDICATORS OF THE STATE OF ECONOMIC SECURITY OF THE EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES IN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE CONCEPT OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Summary. The article examines the basic priorities of the EU economic security strategy. The key indicators of the economic security of the European Union countries are analyzed. The sectoral structure of value added in the EU countries is revealed. The peculiarities of implementing the strategy of strengthening the EU economic security are investigated. The countries of the European Union are one of the most attractive investment destinations for international companies due to their open economy and secure cross-border cooperation in research and innovation. These elements will remain key drivers of European competitiveness and sustainability. Partners around the world benefit from access to European markets, capital and technology for the transition to a clean and sustainable economy. The EU's regional policy, aimed at ensuring collective economic security, in particular by strengthening economic cohesion through assistance to the least developed regions and sectors of the EU member states, is an important element of the EU's structural policy, and along with institutional adaptation and economic integration, is considered one of the main means of influencing public welfare. However, the EU's regional policy is also not without contradictions in the distribution of funding between countries, in particular, there is a discrepancy in the receipt of funds for regional development by the new members of this association and the amount of their contributions to the common budget. Keywords: economic security strategy, global economy, European Union countries, international companies, sustainable development, investment projects, financial and economic crisis, European markets, innovation, competitiveness, cross-border cooperation.

Адаптивне оцінювання фінансової безпеки суб’єктів галузі ритейлу в умовах активного розвитку метапросторових бізнес-колаборацій

The article examines the relationship between the development of metaspatial business collaborations in the sphere of retail and the financial security of economic entities (FSEE), which is defined as a state characterized by: balance and quality of financial instruments, technologies and services; resilience to internal and external threats; the ability of the financial system to ensure the achievement of financial goals. An improved methodology for adaptive assessment and analysis of the FSEE has been proposed, which includes three blocks: a block for assessing the state of the FSEE, a block for threat analysis and a block for the development of managerial influences. The FSEE assessment block includes the following four stages: formation of the FSEE scorecard; comprehensive assessment of the level of the FSEE; assessment of the state of individual groups of the FSEE; identification of the FSEE states. The model of formation of the system of indicators is the initial model of the block, the purpose of which is to form and filter preliminary financial indicators that are most significant for such an assessment. The formation of indicators is possible, depending on information security, by expert and statistical methods. The model of integral assessment of the level of the FSEE allows to build an integral indicator that reflects the general level of the financial component of economic security. Its value is computed using the method of constructing a taxonomic indicator of the level of development, which is one of the methods of multivariate analysis. The model for assessing the state of individual groups of the FSEE includes the formation of values of local levels of financial security for certain groups of financial indicators and even an assessment of the impact of these indicators on the corresponding local level of financial security. The developed set of models allows to obtain forecast assessmets that can be used both in the development of the strategy of economic security of enterprise and in the process of operational management of the FSEE. The proposed set of models has been approbated to assess the level of financial security on the basis of data on the activities of 20 retailers in Ukraine. To assess and analyze financial security, neural network models were used, which, due to the property of generalization, insensitivity to small changes in input signals, the ability to learn and abstract, made it possible to solve the problems of the amount of computing resources, as well as the lack of complete information. The use of a neural network approach to the assessment and analysis of the financial component of economic security made it possible to better present a model of the joint influence of factors and threats on the level of the FSEE. In the context of the active development of metaspatial business collaborations, especially in the field of retail, the proposed methodology for adaptive assessment and analysis of financial security of economic entities is extremely relevant.

НОВЫЕ ТЕНДЕНЦИИ В ГЛОБАЛЬНЫХ ПОТОКАХ ТРАНСГРАНИЧНЫХ ПРЯМЫХ ИНВЕСТИЦИЙ

The article examines measures, that took place in the regulation of foreign direct investment and their impact on the configuration of investment flows. It is noted that for some countries and economic unions in current geopolitical situation, FDI policy is becoming a part of the national strategy for economic security and technological sovereignty. The dynamics of the introduction of FDI restrictive and regulatory measures indicates an increase in protectionism, which leads, in particular, to a reconfiguration of global capital flows. The changes in the FDI inflows /outflows volumes and in their distribution by different regions and countries allow us to conclude that, on the one hand, the localization of a part of FDI within geopolitically close states is taking place, while on the other hand, in order to reduce political and economic risks the diversification of investment partners is going on

Теоретичні аспекти формування стратегії фінансово-економічної безпеки підприємства

It was established that the formation of a strategy for ensuring the financial and economic security of the enterprise is a necessary element of business management aimed at preserving financial stability and creating a foundation for further successful development. It is emphasized that the formation of a company's financial and economic security strategy begins with a detailed analysis and assessment of the company's financial condition, its current situation, internal and external factors affecting its financial security. The task of forming a strategy for financial and economic security of the enterprise is defined: assessment of financial stability; determination of financial and economic risks and development of risk management mechanisms; financial planning and budgeting; attraction of investments and resources; monitoring and control; staff training and development, communication and cooperation; increasing competitiveness. It is emphasized that the strategic goals of economic security must be interconnected with the general strategy of the enterprise and take into account its features, values and goals.

Legal regulation of economic security of Ukraine under the establishment of Industry 4.0

Problem setting. The conditions of the modern digital era impose new requirements on the efficiency of national enterprises. Industry 4.0 involves digitization and automation of production processes and management at enterprises of the real sector of the economy to increase labor productivity, reduce costs, flexibility and adaptability of production systems, and the effectiveness of cooperation in the value creation chain. At the same time, with the possibilities of Industry 4.0 technologies, there are threats to economic security, which requires the development of a strategic vision and legal regulation of security in the digital economy. Analysis of recent researches and publications. The analysis of scientific publications of domestic scientists on the topic of the study showed that there are two opposite groups of works. The first group of researchers analyzes the risks and threats of Industry 4.0 for the economy; however, the authors do not provide recommendations for ensuring economic security in the digital economy. The second group of scientific publications is devoted to general issues of ensuring the economic security of Ukraine, in particular in the legal sphere. However, they hardly pay attention to threats from digitalization. Purpose of research is the development of theoretical provisions and practical recommendations regarding the improvement of regulatory and legal regulation of ensuring the economic security of Ukraine in the conditions of the formation of Industry 4.0. Article’s main body. The work examines the essence of Industry 4.0, the possibilities and advantages of introducing digital technologies into management and production processes, the risks of digitalization and threats to the economic security of Ukraine, the feasibility of improving the legal regulation of economic security in the conditions of the introduction of digital technologies is substantiated. During the analysis of legal acts, the lack of a strategic vision of ensuring economic security against the threats of digitalization, an insufficient list of security indicators for assessing the consequences of digital transformations, and the threat of Ukraine’s financial and technological dependence on developed countries were revealed. The basic principles of the formation of state policy in the field of economic security are substantiated: the rule of law, the priority of protecting economic sovereignty, the correlation and comparability of national and international legislation, adequacy, expediency, meaningfulness, rationality, timeliness and effectiveness of regulatory measures, mutually beneficial conditions of international cooperation, equality of opportunities for residents and nonresidents, stimulation of the domestic economy, sequence of opening of the national economic system for the EU economic system, priority of protection of strategic sectors of the economy, recognition of the jurisdiction of international judicial and arbitration bodies. It is proposed to improve legal regulation in terms of expanding the principles of state policy formation in the field of economic security, revising the methodology for calculating the level of economic security of Ukraine, regulating the provisions on the development and implementation of the Strategy of Economic Security of Ukraine, establishing threats from digitalization and determining the corresponding tasks to overcome them in each sphere of economic security. Conclusions and prospects for development. The implementation of Industry 4.0 is associated with significant threats to national economic security, which requires the development and implementation of a state policy to ensure security in the field of the digital economy. The developed recommendations for improving legal regulation will allow to more effectively ensure economic security in Ukraine. Further directions of research consist in the development and scientific substantiation of measures to ensure economic security in conditions of digitalization, improvement of legal support for their effective implementation.

Economic Security and the Politics of Trade and Investment Policy in Europe

Facing recent global disruptions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, climate change, and the race for raw materials and technology needed for the green transition, economic interdependence—not least unilateral dependence—has increasingly come to be seen as a security threat. In response, the EU has put resilience and strategic autonomy at the centre of its trade and investment agenda. The EU was long resistant to this geoeconomic turn, that is, the use of economic tools for geopolitical purposes in normal times. Since 2017, however, the EU has placed greater emphasis on identifying and mitigating the security vulnerabilities that accrue from open markets. This geoeconomic turn has culminated in the June 2023 release of the European Commission’s Economic Security Strategy, which aims to maximise the benefits of economic openness while minimising the risks from economic interdependence. The aim of this thematic issue is to analyse the foundations of this new European focus on economic security and, more specifically, on the increased use of geoeconomic instruments. Coming at this objective from a variety of disciplinary traditions, methodologies, and substantive focus, our contributors tackle, among others, the following questions: Why has the EU abandoned its reluctance to use geoeconomics and finally made the switch towards economic security? How does the EU’s approach compare with other major global players? And, what are the long-term implications of the EU’s economic security strategy for European integration, its relationship with partners and allies, and the global economic order?

The Problem of State Sovereignty in the Context of World-System Analysis

Based on the analysis of research literature, regulations and policy documents of the Russian Federation, the paper examines the problem of sovereignty of the modern state. The author analyzes the current state of the theory of sovereignty in the context of one of the most promising doctrines of international relations — the theory of world-system analysis. The author suggests taking into account the theoretical and methodological significance of this concept when developing practical measures to implement the sovereignty of the Russian Federation in the political, economic and technological sectors. The author substantiates the relevance of this theory to ensure the real sovereignty of a modern state in a transforming world order, taking into account the challenges that require immediate response and control. The paper elucidates modern models of implementation of state sovereignty in the context of its place in the world system and focuses on indicators for assessing the sovereignty of a modern state, namely: self-sufficiency, resistance to the influence of external factors and state control over internal assets. The author substantiates the fundamental importance of taking into account the methodology of the world-system approach in the implementation of the economic security strategy of the Russian Federation.
