Debt security management in Ukraine

Abstract

The paper addresses Ukraine's unstable debt situation, characterized by substantial public debt, unfavorable borrowing terms, inefficient use of funds, suboptimal currency composition of public and guaranteed debt, and unsatisfactory debt security indicators. Given that debt security is crucial for maintaining sovereignty, ensuring stable national operations, and fostering socio-economic development, the relevance of the study is evident. The primary goal of this paper is to develop theoretical foundations, improve scientific and methodological approaches, and provide practical recommendations for managing Ukraine’s debt security. This goal is achieved through the following tasks:  Analyzing the concept of “debt security of the state.”  Identifying factors influencing national debt security.  Investigating risks that arise in managing debt security.  Assessing the state and structure of Ukraine’s public debt.  Calculating and evaluating the integral debt security index for Ukraine.  Exploring approaches to reform the debt security management system. The study employs various research methods, including analysis, synthesis, logical generalization, statistical analysis, and comparative analysis.
