ANALYSIS OF ECONOMIC SECURITY THREATS TO ENTERPRISES IN THE TRANSPORT INDUSTRY

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to study internal and external factors related to the negative impact on the activities of enterprises in the transport industry, which form potential threats to its economic security. The methodological basis of this article is scientific works of outstanding scientists and materials of periodicals. During the study, the method of logical analysis was used to substantiate the threats to the economic security of the transport enterprise by the nature of the realization of the negative impact. For the purpose of unanimous acceptance of the object of research and a comprehensive assessment of the relations of elements within the defined problem, the method of system analysis was used. The conducted research shows the significant role of road transport in the system of the transport industry and the economy of Ukraine as a whole. It should be noted that the state of motor transport enterprises is unstable and is under the influence of a significant number of external and internal factors. Such a situation causes fluctuations and affects the level of economic security of enterprises in the transport industry, and therefore they need a system of monitoring and maintaining economic security at a satisfactory level. The study of the economic security of the enterprise from an objective standpoint makes it impossible to analyze the state and main development trends of the economic sector to which it belongs. Therefore, in order to formulate an objective and thorough conclusion regarding the state of economic security of transport enterprises, it is necessary to study the current state of development of this industry. Threats to the economic security of a motor vehicle enterprise arise not only due to their financial and economic activities, but also from the factors that can lead to losses or bankruptcy. And that is why we should not delay the factors of the internal and external environment, but react on them as quickly as possible and protect the enterprise from undesirable consequences in the future. Taking into account the entire range of external and internal threats will allow to form an objective model for determining the level of economic security of enterprises of the motor transport industry in Ukraine.
