ECONOMIC SECURITY ASSESSMENT SYSTEM OF ENTERPRISES IN EMERGENT SITUATIONS

Abstract

  The paper explores the economic security assessment system of enterprises in emergent states. The mechanism of economic security system evaluation that includes three stages (planning, implementation and results generating) has been proposed. At the stage of planning and preparation for the process of economic security system assessment the purpose and objectives of the evaluation system are formulated, the areas of assessment, methods and criteria of assessment are determined. The tasks of the assessment include the development of measures to respond to destabilizing phenomena and justify the possibilities of functioning in the new integrated environment. The next stage of evaluation that has been identified is an implementation of economic security assessment (evaluation of components and overall assessment of economic security system). In the paper, we have identified such components of enterprises’ economic security as information, political, legal, resource, market, interface, innovative, environmental, social, etc. To evaluate the economic security’ components we have proposed a score from 1 to 5 points, which characterizes the situation from poor (worst) to excellent (best). Finally, the last stage involves the evaluation and analysis of obtained results, protection of «weak» areas, working out of proposals for improving the efficiency of economic security system. Thus, economic security components of enterprises in emergent situations have been characterized. The proposed measures and proposals to eliminate the problematic aspects identified during the assessment will increase the level of economic security of the business as a whole and in emergencies in particular.
