description |
The enterprise surveys focus on the many
factors that shape the business environment. These factors
can be accommodating or constraining for firms and play an
important role in whether a country will prosper or not. An
accommodating business environment is one that encourages
firms to operate efficiently. Such conditions strengthen
incentives for firms to innovate and to increase
productivity-key factors for sustainable development. A more
productive private sector, in turn, expands employment and
contributes taxes necessary for public investment in health,
education, and other services. In contrast, a poor business
environment increases the obstacles to conducting business
activities and decreases a country's prospects for
reaching its potential in terms of employment, production,
and welfare. The enterprise surveys are conducted by the
World Bank and its partners across all geographic regions
and cover small, medium, and large companies. The surveys
are administered to a representative sample of firms in the
non-agricultural formal private economy. The topics covered
in enterprise surveys include infrastructure, trade,
finance, regulations, taxes and business licensing,
corruption, crime and informality, finance, innovation,
labor, and perceptions about obstacles to doing business.
The enterprise survey is useful for both policymakers and
researchers. The surveys are repeated over time to track
changes and benchmark the effects of reforms on firm performance. |
