general. Functions are the specific actions of the security agent, aimed at preventing or 
eliminating threats. 
The essential attributes of the system of economic security include the initial
provisions, or the principles of coherence and interaction of all elements; outlined goals 
and objectives of the system, and the regulatory framework, which serves as a peculiar 
basis for specific actions. The completeness and effectiveness of the system of 
economic safety largely depends on the availability of the perfect regulatory 
framework, intellectual, financial, material and technical resources, understanding by 
each of the safety actors the importance of the problem of guaranteeing economic 
safety. The peculiarity and complexity of the functioning of the system of economic 
safety is that its effectiveness depends to a large extent on the human factor.

Conceptually, the goal of the process of guaranteeing economic safety is to
achieve such a state of the national economy, in which it would create favourable 
conditions for the development of both an individual and the strengthening of the 
economic power of the state as a whole. An important prerequisite for the effective 
functioning of the economic safety system is the definition of strategic priorities and 
the observance of national interests in all spheres of the national economy.
The purpose of creating the system of economic safety is the formation of
complete guidelines for the observance of national interests in all spheres of the 
national economy and the creation and implementation of conditions for the 
accumulation and use of intellectual potential in order to guarantee the highest degree 
of economic safety of the state.
