The present situation of the financial environment of the financial sphere is analysed by calculating indicators and generalizing them in the integral index which dynamics in 2011–2017 tends to deteriorate values. This means lowering the level of financial security. The method of quantitative assessment of financial risks through reasonable algorithm is improved. It consists of the following stages: analysis of indicators of the state of financial security structured according to its subsystems; assessment of the level of financial risks in the system of economic security; comprehensive risk assessment in financial security subsystems; definition of the integral index of financial risks in the system of economic security.
