Development of modern economy in the context of globalization and business integration, competition stiffening in virtually all sectors of the national economy, makes it impossible to develop large enterprises without significant investment infusions. Therefore, the topic is relevant and necessary for consideration. The main goal of the work is to disclose various aspects of methodological support for assessing the investment attractiveness of innovative companies that are necessary to meet the information needs of their owners, investors, grant holders, and financial professionals. To achieve this goal, the authors used methods of analysis and synthesis. The authors clarified the definition and essence of the ‘investment attractiveness’ concept and structured the analytical characteristics and indicators of the organization’s investment attractiveness. A critical review of the existing methods of analyzing the investment attractiveness of organizations made it possible to identify their advantages and disadvantages, adapt existing methods taking into account the innovative features of companies developing intellectual products. It was proposed universal methodology for rating the investment attractiveness of companies that carry out innovation activities.

The purpose of this article is to present the results of the ongoing study of the University digital transformation on the basis of a comprehensive theoretical model. The article describes a conceptual model of the University digital transformation formed based on the comprehensive quantitative and qualitative analysis of potential ecosystem participants in line with the requirements of changing external conditions. The authors list the current results of the transformation and strategic plans considering any achievements adjustment. The National University of Science and Technology “MISiS” (NUST MISiS) has been used as an experimental basis for the research. The key achievement of NUST MISiS such as a digital ecosystem is described in this article. The digital environment of NUST MISiS considers the needs of the University staff and students and contributes to achieving the strategic goals.

The economy is in a state of transformation into a new system, and it is quite realistic that economic entities will be under the influence of certain risky moments. The process of risk analysis and management should be considered by an enterprise as an integral part of enterprise management in extreme conditions of the economic development trajectory and be a guarantor of financial insurance. The goal of this study is the formation of a process approach in enterprise management—the creation of a universal risk management system based on the proposed risk management model to minimize the financial risks of an enterprise. We propose a risk management system that influences the forecasting of financial stability of an enterprise. To form the risk management system, we propose a model of an organisational system, the structural elements of which correspond to the principles of completeness, information capacity and consistency. We identified the diversity of direct and inverse relationships between factorial and productive characteristics, which indicates the complexity of the organisational system management process. The presence of “bottlenecks” in the implementation of expert systems tools was also noted. This was expressed in the difficulty of acquiring the knowledge necessary for the development of meaningful systems and structuring the knowledge gained in a form that is convenient for use. We used the method of qualitative modelling using the apparatus of weighted directed graphs. The study allowed us to formulate a list of factors that characterize the main activities of an enterprise in order to form a mathematical model of enterprise risk management. The developed predictive model is used to simulate extreme events and risks in the process of enterprise development, as one of the foundations of the enterprise management system in the conditions of economic transformation.

Complicated, diverse, multidirectional institutional processes, taking place around the world, have led to the fact, that in modern conditions the priority direction for disclosing of information about the reporting entity activities to its stakeholders is corporate integrated reporting. It is increasingly acting as a new effective management tool that provides the necessary information connectivity and completeness of disclosure of information on sustainable business development. The article is devoted to one of the effective methods used in the preparation of integrated corporate reporting: internal self-assessment of the organization. The authors substantiate the need for internal self-assessment in order to prepare integrated corporate reporting; made proposals for the development of methods of the organization self-assessment; formed several proposals to improve the organizational and methodological support of the procedure of its implementation; disclosed the main content of the stages of internal self-assessment of the organization. The peculiarity of the proposed methodological solution is the focus on in-depth analysis of the existing business model, the assessment of the contribution of all types of capitals to the result of the organization, taking into account the features of the internal and external environment and industry specifics. The practical application of the proposed methodology as one of the tools of corporate governance allows to increase the level of standardization of integrated reporting and to ensure optimal management of financial and non-financial information flows.
