Formation of a system for ensuring economic security based on the development of measures to provide emergency assistance to tourists.

Relevance. In modern conditions, traveling abroad is more popular among Russian tourists than domestic tourism. Citizens organize trips both with the help of travel agencies and resort to "independent" tourism. When going on trips in any of the above ways, a tourist may face various kinds of restrictions and problems. The purpose of the study is to formulate a proposal for developing an organization to provide emergency assistance to tourists who find themselves in a difficult situation. The objectives of this study are: identifying the key problems that tourists face abroad; analyzing the work system of the "Turpomoshch" association; determining the main ways of obtaining assistance abroad by "wild tourists"; identifying the main problems and difficulties in providing services to tourists abroad by the "Turpomoshch" association; justifying the possibility of creating the "Turkonsultant" organization and its main functions; developing the idea of accumulating an "emergency tourist loan". Methodology. The study is based on data from the Border Service of the Russian Federation, the official website of Aeroflot and AZUR Air, as well as the contents of the charter of the company OOO Turpomoshch. The     article also uses analytical and comparative methods, situation modeling. Results. The article considers the possibility of providing assistance to tourists in difficult situations abroad, traveling on "organized" and "independent" tourism on various types of transport. It also considers various risks associated with the chosen method of travel to the vacation spot. The article provides examples of such risks and ways to resolve them. The creation of "Turpomoshch" is the most optimal tool for ensuring economic security in tourist logistics and allows to minimize the risks of vacationers traveling from travel agencies. Conclusion. In order to most effectively resolve issues of a tourist's safe stay abroad in emergency situations, it is advisable to consider the possibility of creating a specialized organization.
