Factor Of Economic Security Research Articles

Soft Factors of Economic Security

The importance of economic security has increased considerably in the last decades. It can be separated into the following two parts: security of ordinary operation and security of long-term development. In this article we are going to be dealing with the latter, especially the so-called soft factors which make up the basis of it. These factors are the human capital, social capital and territorial capital. With the assistance of the tree model of competitiveness, we are going to demonstrate how important these factors are from the aspect of long-term economic development and social stability. Since the means of altering them is quite difficult and slow, developing them requires a continuous, well-considered, conscious strategy.

Analysis of indicators impact on economic security of enterprises in the context of socio-humanitarian components

Introduction. The level of economic security of enterprises is characterized by many indicators. The assessment of the state of economic security of enterprises is carried out through a system of criteria and indicators. The criterion of enterprises economic security is a measure of the state of the entity in terms of compliance with the established indicators of its activity with pre-established indicators reflecting the essence of economic security. Therefore, the problem of analyzing indicators of enterprises economic security and developing measures to improve their economic component in the context of the socio-humanitarian component.
 Aim and tasks. Justification of the need to develop measures to improve the assessment of economic security of enterprises based on the impact of indicators in the context of the socio-humanitarian component. On the basis of this goal, the question arises of solving such problems as: the possibility of developing a unified conceptual approach and tools for assessing the impact of indicators on the organization's economic security; developing measures to improve the economic component of enterprises in the context of the socio-humanitarian component.
 Results. For the analysis of the economic security state, indicators were chosen that characterize economic security in different spheres of enterprise activity according to the recommendations. For each indicator a matrix of values with the enterprises and indicators of values by years was formed. The analysis uses a multidimensional logit model, a case of binary selection. The model does not take into account group effects, that is, there is no analysis of fixed effects. In order to avoid cross-effects, when not only the variable itself influences the likelihood of a crisis, but the public crisis begins to affect the behavior of the variable, two groups of models are built: for the first group of regressions from the sample, all observations after the first year of crises are excluded; for the second group of regressions all data were used except for the crisis years after the first year of the crisis.
 Conclusions. Based on the analysis of the investigated indicators and the determination of t the parameters of enterprises economic security in addition to economic methods, administrative and socio-psychological means can be used. They include methods of influencing individual workers, groups of employees or the collective as a whole to form a corporate culture that will help achieve the goals of this enterprise, will reduce the impact of socio-humanitarian factors of economic security on the enterprise. These methods include: training staff rules of safe behavior; work with managers, whose behavior serves as a reference for the company's staff; development of a program of work with new employees and its implementation; formation and adjustment of traditions of the enterprise; regulation of interpersonal and intergroup relations; moral encouragement; social planning; other methods. Quick methods for certain enterprises were also proposed to improve the economic component of their operation.

Forecasting Models for the Economic Security of Regional Clusters of the National Economy

Introduction. The principal internal factors of the economic security of regions are defined by principal component analysis and their correlation with respective indicators is determined. Four principal factors (components) of the economic security of regions are identified. Forecasting models for the economic security of regions of the national economy are constructed by regional cluster using the results of the study. The study is performed by data on main socio-economic indicators of 24 Ukrainian regions over 2008–2015 and by economic security clusters (classified as “good”, “sufficient” and “satisfactory”) defined in previous studies.
 The purpose of the study is to construct sets of forecasting models for the economic security of the national economy by regional cluster.
 Methods. Methods of theoretical generalization are used to study and systematize the factors of the economic security of regions; multidimensional statistical methods such as principal component analysis are used to define their correlation with the respective indicators; the method of comparison allows for defining common and distinctive features of the results of computation of the economic security of regions using the constructed models.
 Results. Principal component analysis used for defining the internal factors of economic security of regions and their correlations with the respective indicators allows for identifying four principal factors (components) of the economic security of regions. Results of principle component analysis show that the significance of the first four latent factors for the overall sample is 86.86% of the dispersion of the analyzed variables (13.14% error); for “good” cluster it is 87.3% (12.7% error); for “sufficient” cluster it is 88.03% (11.97% error); for “satisfactory” cluster it is 86.0% (14.0% error). Four sets of forecasting models are constructed, each consisting of a mathematical description of four principal components for each sample. The implementation of the constructed models confirms the inclusion of the regions to the respective regional clusters. The dynamics of the indicators shows the economic situation and processes in the regions in the respective periods. 
 Conclusion. The applied character of the constructed models is substantiated by their practical implementation using actual socio-economic data for the regions represented in each of the regional clusters (Dnipropetrovsk, Vinnytsia, and Volyn regions), over the period of 2008–2015. Further studies should focus on making the scale of the economic security performance for the constructed forecasting models, to determine the performance and estimate the probability of insecurity occurrences in the economy using expected (planned) figures of economic development in a region.

Mechanisms of public administration of economic security of Ukraine: analysis of the factors of influence of systematized by individual spheres of its development

The article explores the approaches to the interpretation of the essence of the concept of «economic security ofthe state» and analyzes the main components of the economic security of the state. The external and internal factorsof economic security of the state are singled out. Factors that are a potential threat to the economic security of Ukraineare generalized. The subject, object and subject of economic security are characterized. A direction is proposed on theeffectiveness of ensuring Ukraine’s economic security.It was revealed that negative economic phenomena are gaining an even larger scale due to the lack of a scientificallybased national development strategy based on economically sound guidelines that envisage the development oftheoretical foundations and the use of other scientific approaches to the formation of the state’s economic securityin the public administration system. Ignoring measures to ensure economic security can lead to negative social andeconomic consequences, the negative state of the economic branches, the increase in the level of import dependenceand the like.It is established that the realization of the national interests of Ukraine is possible only on the basis of sustainableeconomic development. The place, role and value of each of the security elements are determined by circumstancesthat actually develop for a certain period of time inside and outside the facility. Therefore, the problem of Ukraine’seconomic security, which is crucial in the context of the existence and development of Ukraine as a sovereign state,is becoming very important today.

IMPROVEMENT OF ORGANIZATIONAL AND ECONOMIC MECHANISM OF VEGETABLE INDUSTRY FUNCTIONING AS A FACTOR OF ECONOMIC SECURITY OF NATIONAL ECONOMY

The vegetable industry, in conditions of integration into the European and world economic space, needs further improvement of the organizational and economic mechanism of management as a factor of the economic security of the national economy, which ensures a close connection of the production, processing and marketing of products, the formation of marketing and information structures, the development of specialization and concentration Production, co-operation and agro-industrial integration. Therefore, the solution to the problem of improving the organizational and economic mechanism of the functioning of the vegetable industry, as a factor of economic security of the national economy, is relevant. The essence of the study is the need for a deep analysis of the components that form the organizational and economic mechanism of the functioning of the vegetable industry in the aspect of economic security of the national economy. The vegetable industry in Ukraine has a rather powerful potential, which needs to be preserved and augmented. To solve the actual problems of its functioning can create association of producers of vegetable products. Being a nonprofit organization, the association will coordinate the activities of its participants, will contribute to the achievement of their strategic objectives, while not restricting their economic and economic independence. With the aim of securing economic security, the mechanism of the relationship between producers of vegetable products and processing enterprises needs to be improved, since in the chain of relations, the producer – the processor – the consumer practically lost long and stable interrelations, poorly developed mechanism of contracting. In order to provide the population with food products, and processing enterprises with raw materials, it is necessary to unite the efforts of producers of vegetable products, their processors and trade. To interest producers of vegetable products in its implementation, processing enterprises need to calculate for the supplied raw materials was made immediately after its receipt at cannery. Payment of raw materials after the sale is disadvantageous to agricultural commodity producers, as it puts them in dependence on the work of processing enterprises. Often, there are cases of untimely settlement for the raw materials supplied to the processing enterprises. Therefore, it is expedient in the contracts for the supply of open-air vegetables to cannery plants to provide for measures of liability for failure to comply with the terms of the contract, including for late payments. In order to regulate prices for vegetable products, it is expedient to use a price mechanism that provides free and contractual prices with regulated guaranteed and mortgage prices. The use of guaranteed prices will help protect domestic producers in a market economy and stimulate the growth of agrarian production. In order to improve the economic security of the national economy and increase the efficiency of the region's vegetable processing enterprises, the capacity of their production capacities, it is necessary to carry out work on provision of their raw materials in the necessary assortment. For this purpose, raw material bases around cannery plants should be restored in Cherkasy region. Improvement of the organizational and economic mechanism of functioning of the vegetable subcomplex in Cherkasy region as a factor of economic security of the national economy will enable organizationally to combine the technologically interrelated actors for the production of the final vegetable production and bring it to the consumer, with the achievement on this basis of high economic results.

ON REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS SUSTENANCE WITH CENTRALIZED HEAT-SUPPLY SYSTEM

As consisted with Directive No 3 of President of the Republic of Belarus of June, 14th 2007 ‘Economy and Husbandry – the Major Factors of Economic Security of the Republic of Belarus’, saving fuel-and-energy resources over the republic in 2010–2015 should amount to 7,1–8,9 MIO tons of fuel equivalent including 1,00–1,25 MIO tons of fuel equivalent at the expense of heat-supply optimization and 0,25–0,40 MIO tons of fuel equivalent at the expense of increasing enclosing structures heat resistance of the buildings, facilities and housing stock. It means, where it is expected to obtain around 18 % of general thermal resources economy in the process of heat-supply optimization, then by means of enhancing the cladding structure heat resistance of the buildings and constructions of various applications – only about 3–5 % and even a bit less so of the housing stock. Till 1994, in residential sector of the Republic of Belarus, the annual heat consumption of the heating and ventilation averaged more than 130 kW×h/(m 2 ×year) (~56 %), of the hot-water supply – around 100 kW×h/(m 2 ×year) (~44 %). In residential houses, built from 1994 to 2009, heat consumption of the heating and ventilation is already 90 kW×h/(m 2 ×year), of the hot-water supply – around 70 kW×h/(m 2 ×year). In buildings of modern mainstream construction, they expend 60 kW×h/(m 2 ×year) (~46 %) on heating and ventilation and 70 kW×h/(m 2 ×year) (~54 %) on hot-water supply. In some modern residential buildings with the exhausted warm air secondary energy resource utilization, the heating and ventilation takes around 30–40 kW×h/(m 2 ×year) of heat. Raising energy performance of the residential buildings by means of reducing heat expenses on the heating and ventilation is the last segment in the system of energy resources saving. The first segments in the energy performance process are producing heat and transporting it over the main lines and outside distribution networks. In the period from 2006 to 2013, by virtue of the heat-supply schemes optimization and modernizing the heating systems using valuable (200–300 $US per 1 m) though hugely effective preliminary coated pipes, the economy reached 2,7 MIO tons of fuel equivalent. Heat-energy general losses in municipal services of Belarus in March 2014 amounted up 17 %, whilst in 2001 they were at the level of 26 % and in 1990 – more than 30 %. With a glance to multi-staging and multifactorial nature (electricity, heat and water supply) of the residential sector energy saving, the reasonable estimate of the residential buildings sustenance energy efficiency should be performed in tons of fuel equivalent in a unit of time.

Personal and contextual determinants of attitudes towards immigrants

The issues of immigrants and attitudes towards immigrants are an important social issue in our country, and in recent years these issues have become more topical due to the large number of immigrants from the Middle East and Africa who pass through Serbia. This research was aimed at identifying the determinants of social attitudes towards immigrants. Contextual determinants, first of all, economic security and life in a multiethnic environment, as well as individual determinants, operationalized through the HEXACO model of personality, were examined. The research was conducted on the convenience sample of 540 participants. The results have shown that economic security has no direct effect on the attitudes towards immigrants, while the multiethnic environment is an important determinant of these attitudes. Personality traits, especially Openness, as well as Honesty- Humility, have better predictive power than the contextual variables. The factors of economic security are significant moderators of the relationship between personality and attitudes towards immigrants. The importance of the obtained results for understanding the formation of attitudes towards immigrants is discussed, as well as the methodological framework for future studies of attitudes towards immigrants and other social groups.

THE ROLE AND PLACE OF INNOVATION AND INVESTMENT COMPONENT IN THE SYSTEM OF ECONOMIC SECURITY OF ENTERPRISES

The rise of the activity of Ukraine in foreign markets and the formation of own capable markets is accompanied by a gradual increase in economic risks and threats faced by domestic producers. First of all, they are associated with: increased levels of competition for markets from domestic and foreign producers; the monopolization of internal market; the imperfection of legislation regulating relations in the field of entrepreneurship; the existence of social problems; the lack of established methods and means to ensure their own economic security, insufficient number of specialists in this field, etc. In the super complex current conditions it is very important for enterprises to provide their own economic security, to organize their own business. The purpose of the article is to establish the role and place of innovation and investment component in the system of economic security of enterprises, as well as to prove the necessity for the implementation of a vector of innovation and investment development of enterprises to ensure their economic security in long term run. At microlevel economic security characterizes sustainable economic condition of an enterprise and the presence of its immunity to the effects of internal and external factors, which provide guaranteed protection of economic interests, social policies, and the availability of sufficient resources potential for economic activities. Economic security as a basic element of economic system of higher levels (regional, national) is the basis for the reproduction of key national interests. It leads to the existence of internal mechanisms of production, distribution, exchange and consumption, which are the stages of social reproduction. In addition, economic security provides a transition from confrontation to threats (which have an external nature to the subject of safety) to ensure the sustainability of the business entity. Innovative susceptibility is the criterion for the efficiency and competitiveness of businesses in the modern world in the face of new global challenge. So the generation, production, commercialization and implementation of innovations, support for innovation activity is a top priority of the modern enterprise. The components of economic potential are the basis for the development of long-term forecasts and plans for economic security, describe investment mechanisms to ensure economic security. The factors of economic security of enterprises at the present stage are described in the article. The basic development strategies of enterprises due to current conditions are determined.

Neoendogenous Model of Overcoming Imbalances in Economic-legal Framework of Russia Agrarian Regions as a Factor of Economic Security

Evolution processes acceleration, characteristic for modern development, and complicacy of territorial-economic systems structure and ways of their elements collaboration result in additional prerequisites for genesis of economic-legal imbalances, i.e. disequilibrium states, gaining systematic and long-term character. Imbalance of socio-economic system of Russia agrarian regions reached such scales that it becomes an essential factor of security violation. Transformation processes taking place in Russia agrarian regions in recent decades demanded new approaches to regional development, in particular, applying of neoendogenous models combining endogenous resources and exogenous factors. The article describes basic characteristics of a rural territories sustainable development regional model based on three components: employment of territory endogenous potential, development of social capital and neoendogenous units (local self-government). Special attention is paid to clearing imbalances in economic-legal framework of agrarian regions on the basis of indicative planning application. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2016.v7n1p167
