Introduction. Transformation of the national economics, rapidity, unsteadiness and vagueness of the external environment drive the need for revising theoretical and methodological principles of economic analysis as an integral knowledge system used to create an informational foundation for making management decisions. The absence of complex and systemized approaches during the research of the challenges in theory and methodology of economic analysis delays its development and hinders its adaptation to modern economy management. Methods. The research is based on the dialectical knowledge acquisition approach. Historical approach is used during the detection of indicative characteristics of the economic analysis paradigms and elaboration of its functions. The following general scientific methods such as: analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction served as the basis for detecting challenges in economic analysis, while detalization and generalization are used to classify its principles. Results.
