Introduction In recent decades, there has been an accelerated dynamics of capital withdrawal abroad. Countries around the world are facing growing capital flows that flow across borders in search of new opportunities and profitable investments. This process had a significant impact on the economic situation in various countries and caused a discussion about its causes, consequences and possible ways of regulation. One of the main reasons for the withdrawal of capital is the desire of entrepreneurs and investors to get higher returns abroad. Instead of staying in their country, where risks and uncertainty may be higher, they choose to transfer their capital to a place where business conditions are more favorable or where new markets and technologies are available. In addition, some entrepreneurs may seek to minimize tax liabilities by moving their assets outside of their country. However, the withdrawal of capital can also have negative consequences for the country's economy, negatively affecting the economic security of the state. It can lead to a decrease in investment in the local economy, job cuts and loss of tax revenue. In addition, it can create an imbalance in the distribution of wealth and increase dependence on foreign capital.
