ABSTRACT
The article highlights the need to monitor factors, risks and threats to financial security at different levels of the social hierarchy. The tools are examined for identifying threats to financial and socio-economic security. The study generalizes international experience of monitoring the financial security of the state and business in terms of the COVID-19 pandemic. Threats to Ukraine's financial security have been identified with the help of modern approaches adapted to the conditions of the pandemic. Reserves of digitalization of business are investigated. The identification of risks and threats to social security of Ukraine by its components has been carried out. The article analyzes the impact of the pandemic on rising unemployment. The number of households in crisis conditions caused by the pandemic and quarantine measures is estimated as an indicator of socio-economic security. The impact of the pandemic on financial and social security is summarized at different levels of the social hierarchy. It is proved that updating the list of indicators and qualitative enrichment of the analytical system of threat identification with dynamic indicators of digitalization of the economy will enable identifying additional threats to financial security at different levels of the social hierarchy. Additional risks for the national financial system related to globalization and digitalization of the state financial system are identified, which are not taken into account by the current methodological recommendations for calculating the level of economic security of Ukraine. Additional risks for the national social system connected with intrastate machinery, social and political changes are identified, which are not taken into account by the current methodological recommendations for calculating the level of economic security of Ukraine. It is proved that due to the slow implementation of reforms in the social and economic spheres of security activities, the existing socio-economic security system turned out to be vulnerable to an intense crisis event, i.e. the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to a number of threats. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
