Abstract. For Ukraine, as an independent country, in the current state of the economy, the problem of ensuring sustainable socio-economic development, forming concepts of combating external and internal threats, improving living standards, developing economic relations with other countries is especially important. The generality of these problems and the algorithm for solving them is related to such a concept as “security”. Changing certain factors that arise from external and internal conditions of national economic development makes it relevant to study the issue of national economic security.

Economic security is a key component in ensuring national security and an important basis for its socio-economic development. The national economic security is being considered as a mean to ensure sustainable development, reliable protection of economic interests of enterprises, all industries, and economic entities, regional and national development.

The economic security of the country is considered from the standpoint of ensuring the protection of vital interests of all inhabitants of the country, society and the state in the economic area from possible internal and external threats.

A more comprehensive definition of economic security involves achieving a state of the economy that provides high and sustainable economic growth of all economic indicators, effective satisfaction of economic needs, governmental control over the movement and use of national resources, protection of economic interests at national and international levels.

Economic security characterizes the balance of the economic system and its effective development, which is ensured by many factors that determine the ability of the national economy to provide its competitiveness in the international economic space, as well as reliable protection against possible risks and threats.
