METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH TO ASSESSING MACRO-LEVEL FACTORS OF ANTI-CRISIS MANAGEMENT OF COMPANY VIABILITY

Abstract

The relevance of this study is driven by the increasing level of global economic uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and systemic crises, which significantly strengthen the dependence of corporate viability on macro-level conditions. Under conditions of military, financial, and institutional shocks, crisis management extends beyond the micro level and requires consideration of national resilience, quality of governance, and infrastructure capacity. Despite extensive academic attention to crisis management and resilience, methodological approaches to assessing macro-level determinants remain fragmented and insufficiently integrated.

The purpose of this article is to develop a methodological approach to assessing macro-level factors of crisis management affecting corporate viability through the integration of institutional and infrastructural indicators of national development. The methodological framework is based on systemic and structural-functional approaches, cross-country comparative analysis, multivariate statistical techniques, and econometric modeling. The study employs the Worldwide Governance Indicators and the FM Global Resilience Index and applies descriptive analysis, Spearman correlation, principal component analysis (PCA), and multiple regression analysis to a sample of 11 countries with different income levels.

The results reveal a statistically significant positive relationship between the quality of institutional governance and national resilience, as well as a strong impact of infrastructural capacity on economies’ ability to withstand and recover from crisis shocks. The findings confirm that national income level alone is not a sufficient determinant of corporate viability without adequate institutional quality and infrastructure readiness. It is also demonstrated that institutional and infrastructural constraints significantly reduce the potential for effective crisis management and corporate resilience in Ukraine.

Future research perspectives include expanding the country sample, applying dynamic panel data models, and conducting in-depth analyses of the interaction between macro-level determinants and corporate resilience strategies.
