Detailed Information on Publication Record

Economies in all regions are implementing reforms that facilitate the business process, and it is precisely the countries of Europe that have been at least one reform per year in recent years. The aim of the article is to find out the conditions for doing business in the Visegrad Four countries between 2006 and 2018 and their subsequent comparison. To this end, the World Bank's publicly available Doing Business data was used to publish a business rating of 190 countries. The analysis found that no country in the Visegrad Four introduced more reforms in one year. It has always resorted to at most one or none, which in turn leads to the fact that there is a fluctuating trend in the ranking of business conditions. There are countries that introduce several adjustments per year and move to a better ranking in the rankings, so other countries are lagging behind. Therefore, it cannot be unequivocally stated that the countries concerned have deteriorated or improved in terms of business, but it can be stated that there are still significant shortcomings that need to be further explored in order to eliminate the barriers to business creation.
