Concepts and goals

In the market conditions of economic management, an important (if not decisive) value is acquired by economic security of all subjects of entrepreneurial and other types of activities.

The economic security of a firm (enterprises, organizations) is the state of corporate resources (capital, personnel, information and technology, equipment and equipment, rights) and entrepreneurial opportunities, which ensures the most effective use of them for stable operation and dynamic scientific, technical and Social development, prevention of internal and external negative influences (threats).

The necessity of constant observance of economic security is explained by the objective task facing each business entity to ensure stable functioning and achievement of the main goal of its activity. The level of economic security is determined by how effectively its management and specialists (managers) manage to prevent possible threats and eliminate the damage from negative impacts on certain components of economic security.

Sources of negative influences can be: 1) the conscious or unconscious actions of individual officials and business entities (public authorities, international organizations, competing enterprises); 2) the influence of a wide variety of objective circumstances (the state of the financial situation, scientific discoveries and technological developments, force majeure, etc.).

Depending on their subjective conditionality, the factors of negative impact on economic security can be objective and subjective . Objective are considered such negative impacts that arise without participation and in addition to the will of a particular enterprise or its individual employees, and subjective ones are the result of inefficient operation of the enterprise as a whole or its employees (primarily managers and functional managers).
