Financial risk assessment plays a decisive role in shaping corporate stability in emerging economies where enterprises frequently encounter rapid market shifts, institutional reforms and structural vulnerabilities. The effectiveness of assessment practices depends on the ability of firms to recognize risk sources at an early stage and to integrate these insights into strategic decision making. This article examines the ways in which a strategic approach to financial risk assessment can reinforce corporate resilience in environments characterized by limited transparency and heightened economic uncertainty. The discussion focuses on the interaction between internal assessment mechanisms and external macroeconomic conditions, along with the managerial capacities required to interpret risk signals correctly. The study outlines conceptual directions that can support firms in improving the depth and consistency of their financial risk evaluation processes and in aligning them with long term development objectives typical for emerging markets.
