Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:This study provides a description of enterprise birth dynamics in Portugal, using an entrepreneurship dataset conceived from Quadros de Pessoal based on the Eurostat/OECD methodology ―Manual on Business Demography Statistics‖, for the period 1987 to 2007. The main contribution of this analysis is to provide detailed empirical evidence of the performance of enterprise births by firm dimension, region and main economic sectors. Using this unique matched employer-employee micro dataset, we discuss the prevalence of some of the main stylized facts on firm creation. When relevant, we resort to international data for comparison.
