The paper highlights the evolution and current state of the national financial monitoring system of Ukraine, which is an important component of ensuring the economic security of the state. The author examines the main stages of the formation of this system in the context of globalization challenges and the country's integration into the world community. Special emphasis is placed on the role of international standards in harmonizing the national legal framework with international requirements in the field of combating the legalization of proceeds of crime and the financing of terrorism. The paper defines that financial monitoring covers the processes of identification, analysis, evaluation and verification of financial transactions with the application and termination of illegal financial flows. The main approaches to the interpretation of this term, which are presented in the scientific literature and legislation of Ukraine, are described. The author examines the problem of adapting international norms to the conditions of Ukraine, noting that the effectiveness of the national financial monitoring system largely depends on its ability to ensure prompt response to new threats, including financial terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. Thus, the paper provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of the national financial monitoring system in Ukraine, outlining its strengths, challenges and directions for improvement. The work has theoretical and practical significance for researchers, specialists in the field of finance, as well as for representatives of state bodies responsible for ensuring the economic security of the state.
