The article explores the fundamental methods of managing financial risks in the modern economy. Financial risks, including market, credit, liquidity, and operational risks, pose significant challenges for businesses, financial institutions, and governments alike. This study analyzes both traditional and contemporary approaches to risk management, emphasizing the importance of strategic planning, diversification, hedging, insurance mechanisms, and regulatory compliance. Special attention is given to the role of digital technologies, such as big data analytics and financial modeling, in identifying, measuring, and mitigating financial risks effectively. The research highlights the integration of risk management into corporate governance, decision-making processes, and macroeconomic policy frameworks to enhance stability and sustainability. Furthermore, the article provides comparative insights into the methods applied in different economic sectors and regions, offering practical recommendations for improving resilience against financial uncertainties. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of risk management strategies, supporting policymakers, economists, and business leaders in minimizing potential losses and promoting sustainable economic growth.
