The Impact of Digitalization on the Economic Security Index of GDP

Abstract

To assess the state of economic security in Russia, both traditional and relatively new macroeconomic indices are used, which depend on changes in digital tools. With the help of macroeconomic indices, the level of economic security of any country is assessed. The study assesses the development of key economic security indices of the Russian Federation. Special attention is paid to the value of GDP and the influence of the digital economy on it. Different points of view on the volume of “digital” GDP and methods of its calculation are presented. The authors systematize views on the absolute and relative indices of the volume of the digital economy in Russia and estimate these values. The study is conducted to determine the share of the digital economy in the country’s value of GDP, as well as the reasons for different values obtained, and GDP is used as a characteristic of economic security of the country.
