Private sector manufacturing in Czech and Slovak Federal Republic : a survey of firms
Swanson, Dan | Webster, Leila | IEN
The central objective of this research was to document the characteristics and problems of private sector manufacturers in the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic (CSFR) so that they can be supported as effectively as possible. This project also produces a historical record of the status of private sector manufacturing eighteen months into CSFR's transformation program. The research had three specific objectives: to develop a profile of entrepreneurs and their firms; to assess firms' prospects through evaluating the impact of reform policies on firm-level operations and identifying constraints to further growth; and to formulate recommendations for actions to support private sector manufacturers. The heart of the research was a firm-level survey of 121 firms carried out in CSFR in January 1992. Firms were drawn randomly from the population of registered, majority privately- and domestically- owned manufacturers with seven or more employees. The large self-employed sector, firms engaged in trade or services, and joint ventures were excluded. Each entrepreneur was interviewed for about three hours by one of five research teams using a standardized questionnaire devised to elicit quantitative and qualitative information.
