Abstract: The research is aimed at studying the essence of Society 5.0 as an advanced stage of digital development, where the received digital and economic resources are redirected to solving social problems. It is determined that the basis of the state policy is the management of digitalisation risks. The authors systematised the digitalisation risks: level 1 - information and technological risks; level 2 - socio-economic risks; level 3 - societal risks. The authors formulated recommendations for reducing risks of level 1 and proposed a methodology for assessing risks of levels 2 and 3 based on statistical methods. The authors identified directions of ensuring the transition to Society 5.0: the state policy of levelling information risks of digitalisation; the state policy of digital alignment and maintaining social well-being. Research methods used were the method of theoretical analysis, a systematic approach, the method of economic analysis and synthesis, and statistical methods.

Keywords: digital development; social development; Society 5.0; digitalisation risks; state policy; security; social changes; risk assessment.
