Features of Application of Automated Customs Risk Management Systems: European Experience

Introduction. The current stage of development of the world economy is characterized by processes of integration and internationalization, which require the creation of a coherent global system of foreign trade regulation. A significant role is played by the introduction and development of a risk management system (CSR) as a unique instrument of integral and integrated customs control, which will allow to move to the new principles of security of international supply chains, to ensure the implementation of a fundamentally new approach to the interaction of customs and business on the basis of public-private partnership and trust.

Purpose. The purpose of this article is to clarify the features of the implementation of automated customs risk management systems in the European Union.

Results. The article discusses the European experience of using automated customs risk management systems. The greatest attention in the article is given to the experience of using risk management systems in developed countries with many years of experience in using appropriate systems in customs control, in particular the experience of the United Kingdom. It has been determined that the risk management system is given special attention in the system of EU customs authorities, which covers not only the customs sphere, but also protects the economic interests of the participating countries, allows for the movement of goods, which in turn is not only competitive, but also safe for consumers . A feature of the risk management system (RMS) in the UK lies in its ability to update and improve itself. The risk management system both issues certain instructions on customs control and collects information on the results of the application of these instructions. Thus, she analyzes information about the effectiveness of measures to minimize risks.

Conclusions. The article identifies the differences between the domestic RMS from the European one, which impede the increase in the efficiency of its functioning and suggests the main directions for their elimination.

Keywords: automated risk management system; risk management system; foreign experience; risk assessment program; information exchange.
