Abstract

The paper aims to perform an objective comparative analysis of the business climate for entrepreneurship development in European countries in 2021 and group them according to the quality of the business climate. The research uses thirteen criteria from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor report and TOPSIS methodology combined with entropy to perform a comparative analysis of the business climate for entrepreneurship development in selected European economies in 2021. Usage of TOPSIS and entropy method based on the last available data enabled objective and the most accurate evaluation and ranking of countries, taking into account all observed criteria. According to the study, the ranking of European economies indicates that the Netherlands has the most favorable business climate for entrepreneurship development, considering all observed criteria, while Belarus is ranked in the last position. According to relative closeness to the ideal solution (Ci*), the four clusters of countries are derived. Besides the Netherlands, Lithuania, Norway, and Finland were also dedicated to the first cluster, indicating that these economies obtained the most favorable conditions for entrepreneurship development during the pandemic crisis. On the other hand, former command economies and Greece and Cyprus are placed in Cluster IV since they haven’t supported entrepreneurs with sufficient and appropriate economic policy and regulatory reforms.

鉴于大流行病危机，欧洲创业发展面临的挑战

本文旨在对2021年欧洲国家创业发展的商业环境进行客观的比较分析，并根据商业环境的质量进行分组。该研究使用了全球创业观察报告中的13项标准和TOPSIS方法，并结合熵对选定的欧洲经济体2021年创业发展的商业环境进行了比较分析。TOPSIS和熵值法的使用基于最新可用数据，考虑到所有观察到的标准，能够对国家进行客观和最准确的评价和排名。根据这项研究，欧洲经济体的排名表明，考虑到所有观察到的标准，荷兰拥有最有利于创业发展的商业环境，而白俄罗斯排名最后。根据与理想解的相对接近度(Ci*)，导出了四个国家群。除荷兰外，立陶宛、挪威和芬兰也被专门用于第一集群，这表明这些经济体在大流行危机期间获得了最有利的创业发展条件。另一方面，前计划经济国家以及希腊和塞浦路斯被列入第四组，因为它们没有以充分和适当的经济政策和监管改革来支持企业家。
