Subject. This article focuses on the strengthening of structural imbalances in the global economy, which create significant risks to the economic security of individual countries.
Objectives. The study aims to identify key structural imbalances in the global economy, and confirm the author's scientific hypothesis on the transformation of the structure of international economic relations and security.
Methods. For the study, we used the methods of scientific analysis, economic and mathematical statistics, and methodological approaches based on new analytical tools and techniques for processing large datasets.
Results. The article assesses the impact of structural changes on the dynamics of foreign trade volumes, investments, and the distribution of income from intellectual property. It also demonstrates the influence of global economic imbalances on Russia's economic security.
Conclusions. It is necessary to intensify efforts to create infrastructure for science and technology. Special importance is attached to the development of the intellectual property market to protect and commercialize assets that can become sources of positive change and contribute to the long-term sustainable development of countries.

Keywords: structural imbalances, global economy, economic security, Russian Federation
