The current scientific literature indicates that enterprise development is influenced by numerous factors, including political and social stability, macroeconomic stability, governmental policy environment, legal framework, tax burden, financial service conditions, human resource availability, infrastructure development, environmental policies, and regional development. The research methods and inquiries concerning the topic are founded on the examination of statistical data and a literature review.
