| description | The Enterprise Surveys (ES) focus on
many aspects of the business environment. These factors can
be accommodating or constraining for firms and play an
important role in whether an economy’s private sector will
thrive 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.
Questions contained in the ES aim at covering most of the
topics mentioned above. The topics include infrastructure,
trade, finance, regulations, taxes and business licensing,
corruption, crime and informality, access to finance,
innovation, labor, and perceptions about obstacles to doing
business.The ES are conducted by the World Bank Group and
its partners across all geographic regions and cover small,
medium, and large firms. The surveys are administered to a
representative sample1 of firms in the non-agricultural,
formal, private economy.The ES are repeated approximately
every four years for a particular economy (or region). By
tracking changes in the business environment, policymakers
and researchers can look at the effects of policy and
regulatory reforms on firm performance. This document
summarizes the results of the Enterprise Survey for Malaysia. |
