Abstract: The object of this study is strategic planning in the management process. The authors note the importance of innovation and strategic planning in forming an innovative economy. The article gives detailed review of the main tool of strategic analysis - mathematical modeling. The authors make a conclusion about the need to use a more flexible mathematical apparatus, such as the apparatus of game theory. The authors also note that the theory of games is a very complex area of scientific knowledge. It is especially important to understand its application boundaries. A simplified interpretation of the apparatus of game theory can be very dangerous. The theoretical analysis has been used as a method of research. Individual aspects, features and characteristics of mathematical modeling in strategic planning were identified and reviewed. The main conclusion of this paper is to identify and clearly marked a promising field of research. Since the prospects and hopes placed by the authors on the apparatus of game theory for strategic planning aimed at the transition to an innovation economy, can significantly increase the efficiency of the state management of the economy and to ensure its rapid transition from a resource-production to the economy.

Abstract: The subject of the research is the problems of information security as well as development of the competitive strategy on the market of oil products for oil companies and implementation of the game theory method in the process of solving the aforesaid issues. Special attention is paid to the questions of providing information security. The author explaines the role of strategic interaction in the process of planning and developing company's competitive strategy. After that the author introduces the framework of the game theory in a form of a target function with a set game matrix which alllows to carry out simulation modeling when the actual basis is accumulated. The research methodology is based on the framework of the game theory, in particular, constant sum games, cooperative games and games with inexact information. The main conclusion of the research is the proof that it is possible to apply the game theory method to solving specific problems of oil industry. The author also offers to use the target function to fill in the game matrix for each problem and defines directions for further researches in this field using the game theory and simulation modeling methods.
