ASSESSMENT THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF A SMALL TRANSPORT ENTERPRISE

Economic security is one of the most critical prerequisites for the sustainable functioning of small transport enterprises. In conditions of unstable markets, rising fuel prices, and growing competition, the resilience of small transport businesses depends on their ability to maintain financial stability, optimize resources, and effectively mitigate risks. This paper examines the concept of economic security in the context of small transport enterprises and proposes an assessment framework based on key indicators, including financial sustainability, liquidity, cost efficiency, and market competitiveness.
