Attaining and maintaining financial stability is a prerequisite for the establishment of enterprise’s financial equilibrium and for successful development of its business under the conditions of market competition both in operational and in strategic aspect. Financial stability reflects important and crucial economic links that objectively exist and are manifested in the course of operation of any enterprise.
