INFLUENCE OF FINANCIAL REGULATIONS ON EARLY-STAGE ENTREPRENEURIAL ACTIVITY




Abstract:
Government efforts to provide better business environment in terms of high-quality regulations and business laws should facilitate the development of entrepreneurial activity in different ways. There is an emerging body of literature that supports this relationship. The aim of the paper is to examine how different kinds of financial regulations, such as government procedures for getting credit, paying taxes and resolving insolvency, are related to the formation of young businesses. The sample includes World Bank’s Doing Business and Global Entrepreneurship Monitor data for 50 economies within the period of two years. The analysis has confirmed that financial regulations can have a significant impact on the early-stage entrepreneurial activity rate, but this relationship should not be a priori defined as generally positive.
