Abstract:
The aim of the article is to survey the existing approaches to defining the economic content of intellectual capital and its components, as well as their role in the efficient functioning of enterprises. Intellectual capital is a key factor in the successful operation of enterprises in the context of the modern knowledge economy. The study of this conception has undergone three stages: the definition and identification of the components of intellectual capital, the development of methods for its assessment, and the examination of its impact on the productivity of the enterprise and the possibilities for practical application. The main components of intellectual capital are considered: human, structural, and relational capital. Human capital encompasses the knowledge, skills, and competencies of employees; structural capital includes organizational processes, management mechanisms, and information systems, while relational capital pertains to the interaction of the company with clients and other internal and external stakeholders. It is defined that the role of intellectual capital lies in creating additional value, enhancing the efficiency of the enterprise, and strengthening the competitive positions of the latter. Investments in intellectual capital are strategically important for enterprises as they ensure long-term sustainability and competitiveness. Despite the complexity of the financial assessment of these assets, they play a critical role in shaping the company’s value and its market positions. Therefore, efficient management of intellectual capital is a necessary condition for the successful functioning of modern enterprises. Prospects for further research have been identified, particularly the integration of digital technologies, the development of efficient knowledge management methodologies, and the impact of intellectual capital on the sustainable development of the economy.

Keywords: capital, intellectual capital, human capital, structural capital, relational capital, intellectual property.
