Importance The article discusses conceptual scientific approaches to defining the substance and structural components of economic security in terms of the development of socio-economic systems at the micro-, meso- and macrolevels.
Objectives The research systematizes scientific knowledge on economic security and substantiates my own views on the substance of economic security of the socio-economic system at various spatial levels.
Methods The methodological framework relies upon a combination of scientific methods of economic analysis, such as methods of induction and deduction, logic abstraction, causality, functionality, systems, methods of historical and comparative analysis, etc.
Results The article overviews the substance of target economic security indicators in scientific literature, systematizes scientific stances on the category in question. I point out key conceptual approaches to studying economic security in line with scholars' views and assertions, substantiates my own views, thus revealing the substance of the economic security concept in term of the development of socio-economic systems at the micro-, meso- and macrolevels.
Conclusions and Relevance Economic security is spatially measured depending on researches into economic systems and their level, since every actor of economic activities independently takes its business decisions on the use of resources, operations and development so to improve its competitive advantages in the respective economic area. Target assertions are similar since they refer to identical processes influencing the various levels of economic security.
