Abstract. The problem of elaborating the comprehensive state policy on regulatory and legal provision of the financial security at all levels of economy is significantly important for Ukraine. It is crucial to ensure development and implementation of the legislative framework that would determine the types of internal and external threats to the stability of financial activity and the means of counteracting these threats; the full power and responsibility of state authorities concerning the financial and legal regulation aimed at warranting order in financial sphere; the mechanism of financial control organization as the means of preventing financial offences. The aim of the research is to outline the essence of new threats to the economic and financial security of the state under modern economic conditions and search for the required mechanisms and means of regulatory and legal provisioning of the financial security of Ukraine. In the course of research, the general scientific and theoretical methods have been applied. These include systemic analysis (for defining the object and the subject of research); abstract and logical method (for preparing the scientifically justified generalizations and conclusions about the essence, the mechanism of provisioning financial security of the state, and the factors that designate it); graphic method (for representing visually the mechanism of ensuring financial security of the state). The article introduces improvements to the list of modern internal and external threats to the financial and economic security of the state with respect to the immanent nature of the World Band and the International Monetary Fund. It has been emphasized that the new list of indicators and sources of initial information about the constituent components of financial security should be developed and approved because the current list was outlined in the end of 2013 and does not take into account modern realia. It is necessary to determine the functions of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine in the realm of monitoring and regulating financial stability of the state, particularly in the real economy sector. It has been specified that scientific development of the range of problems related to the methodology and legal regulation of the state security provisioning, as well as the means and methods of preventing and mitigating the threats, is tightly connected with the development of macroprudential supervision and regulation under the aegis of the National Bank of Ukraine. The introduction of new indicators by the Bank (such as the level of non-performing loans, the financial stress index, and others) is the positive step. Nonetheless, the large quantity of private indicators interferes the process of elaborating the set of measures for financial and legal regulation of the financial security level. The new methodological approach to development of the integrated indicator of financial stability at the macro level has been suggested. The research results enable the possibility of improving the mechanism of state financial security and justifying the set of measures for its reinforcement. The review and improvement of the current legal framework in the area of financial and regulatory economic security, and development of the new integrated indicator of financial security level are necessary. Keywords: financial security; internal and external threats; legal mechanism of security provision, macroprudential regulation.

The article examines the indicators of financial security of Ukraine and the position of the state in international rankings compiled by international organizations. Some international rankings are considered in detail and the corresponding conclusions concerning financial safety of Ukraine are made. The impact of assessments of international organizations on the financial stability and security of the country is analyzed, namely indicators of fiscal (tax) burden, fiscal health, monetary freedom, financial freedom, are indicators that can be used for financial security at the macro level. An assessment of the Competitiveness Index of Ukraine and the Global Financial Index is provided; this facilitates the assessment of the level of financial inclusion of the country. It is concluded that Ukraine’s rating is extremely low, the state of financial security of the national economy is on the border between satisfactory and critical values, there is an unsatisfactory state in the assessment of the banking system as a whole. The article provides the assessment of financial security that is carried out by an external investor or lender who does not have deep knowledge about the peculiarities of the functioning and development of the financial system of Ukraine, but makes decisions based on international ratings of national economies, which is negative for further financial decisions. Almost half of the adult population of the state remains outside the financial system and does not use financial products and services, does not pursue its own financial interests and does not invest in the assets of the financial sector, which is in dire need of investment. It is also possible to note the significant lag in the level of financial inclusion in Ukraine, which, in turn, contributes to the spread of shadow schemes in the economy, capital outflows, shortfalls in budget revenues, and ultimately reduce the financial security of our country. Therefore, at the state level, urgent measures should be taken to increase the rating positions of Ukraine through a qualitative transformation of the domestic financial system in the direction of increasing the level of financial security of the state.

Identification of the main problems in ensuring the financial security of the state is based on a comprehensive analysis and identification of factors influencing the level of protection of the national financial system. The complexity of building the financial system itself during the global pandemic has become much more complicated, but there is a need to review each of its integral parts to objectively assess the overall level of security. Determining the level of financial security is carried out using an integrated index of financial security, which is the sum of integrated indices of certain areas of the budget of financial activities, debt, monetary base, currency, insurance, stocks, banking, investment. The insurance market is one of the key indicators of the level of financial security of the state and its citizens. The insurance market is one of the most important components of the financial sector of the economy. Without a well-developed infrastructure of the insurance market, it is impossible to ensure the progressive socio-economic development of the state. The article summarizes the shortcomings inherent in public financial control at the present stage of its development in the field of insurance. The article analyzes the dynamics of the main indicators of the state of development of the insurance market of Ukraine, identified factors influencing its level of financial security and identified areas for achieving a satisfactory state of financial security of the domestic insurance market. The list of modern threats to the normal operation of domestic insurance companies is determined, their division into internal and external according to the nature of their origin. Statistics on individual parameters that characterize the insurance market are presented. The importance of economic security of insurance companies for the financial, economic and national security of the state is substantiated. The authors of the article identified the factors influencing the state of public financial control in Ukraine and identified areas for improving public financial control in the context of financial security of the state and the insurance market in the COVID-19 pandemic. The article substantiates that the conditions for attracting investment and a safe environment in Ukraine have not yet been formed. The system of indicators and criteria for assessing the level of security of the investment environment should be expanded.
