MAIN COMPONENTS OF THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF THE COUNTRY

Abstract

The most important goal of any economic policy, including the state policy of modernization is to ensure the economic security of the country. Economic security, as an economic category, is the most important component of Ukraine's national security and has a rather complex internal structure, which is confirmed by differences of opinion on its definition.

The main components of the state economic security have been identified and analyzed under modern conditions: financial, foreign economic, macroeconomic, investment and innovative, informative, scientific and technological, energy, social, demographical, food, industrial and environmental security. The financial component includes a set of measures to protect the economic interests of the state at the macro level, the financial activities of economic entities at the micro level. The foreign economic component determines the creation of conditions for the optimal growth of the national economy in the international division of labor. The macroeconomic component looks ahead achieving of macroeconomic reproduction proposals balance. The investment and innovative component determines the ability of the state to receive, place and use domestic and foreign loans and investments. The information component is the conditions and rules for the use of information that ensure the general and economic security of the state. The scientific and technological component determines the state of scientific and technical potential of the country. The energy component provides the stability of physical supplies of energy for domestic consumption. The social component foresees the formation of conditions that ensure the progressive development of the individual, society and state. The demographic component is manifested in the stabilization of the population of Ukraine and the formation of preconditions for further demographic growth. The food component provides the country's economy with food in the amounts necessary for the efficient functioning of the national economy. The production component ensures the efficient use of existing production capacity in the country. Environmental safety is aimed at preventing or timely resolving the contradiction between society and the environment.

All components of economic security are closely interconnected and intertwined. The parameters of each of the component must ensure its balance, and their level must be sufficient to ensure adequate stability of the system to internal and external threats during the current and long-term periods. Reliable economic security of the state is possible only with a comprehensive and systematic approach to its organization.

The information component at all levels is the main one, because it is mainly the interaction of economic entities and the state, including individuals.
