Abstract

In the context of global bifurcation and growing competition, the stable functioning of enterprises is becoming an important factor for maintaining market position. Changes in the global and national economy are accompanied by the active use of innovations in the environment and the search for solutions for business development. The integration of enterprises within the closed-loop economy (EOC) allows combining the resources, technologies and knowledge of individual companies and improving their economic performance. However, with the growing interdependence between the participants in the integration processes, the risk of external and internal factors that can threaten the stability of the business also increases. With the progressive growth of the number of integrations, it becomes necessary to assess their sustainability. It includes not only financial stability, but also the ability to adapt to changes in the economic environment, maintain social ties and ensure environmental safety. The development of a system of criteria for assessing sustainability becomes necessary for effective risk management and strategic planning of integration activities.
