Introduction. The prolonged impact of military threats necessitates a fundamental transformation of approaches to regional system resilience. The resilience of the quality of life (community and working) depends on the financial system’s ability to maintain vital societal functions and preserve human capital.
The purpose of the article is to substantiate the strategic orientations for regulating the impact of financial dominants on the resilience of the quality of life (community and working) of the population of Ukraine’s regions under external threats.
Results. A conceptual model for the strategic regulation of the impact of financial dominants has been developed, based on the security profiling of regions (active combat zones, frontline, supporting, and rear regions). It is proved that financial dominants (budgetary, tax, investment, credit, insurance, grant-donor) function as an interconnected system, the synergistic effect of which ensures the sequential implementation of strategic regulatory orientations – from “protection” and “adaptation” to “transformation”. A matrix of strategic orientations has been proposed, defining the specific impact of financial dominants and instruments on the quality of community and working life of the population in Ukraine’s regions, depending on their security profile. The necessity of applying multi-level governance principles to enhance the effectiveness of financial policy at the national, regional, and local levels is substantiated. Tools for preserving human potential, supporting infrastructure, ensuring employment, and integrating IDPs based on multi-level governance principles have been defined.
Conclusions. Ensuring the resilience of the quality of life of the population in Ukraine’s regions under wartime conditions requires a shift towards differentiated strategic regulation of the impact of financial dominants, taking into account the security profile of territories. Implementing the proposed strategic guidelines based on multilevel governance will enhance the adaptive capacity of regions, strengthen the resilience of financial provision for societal needs, and create the conditions for restoring the quality of community and working life amid external threats.
