Business associations in countries in transition to market economies
The establishment of strong, representative private sector organizations is important for protecting the interests of the small business sector in any economy seeking to develop along market lines. With this in mind, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)commissioned reports from Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the Russian Federations to review the state of business associations in these countries. This article, based on these OECD reports (produced in 1993), evaluates the development of such organizations, examining issues
of advocacy and political influence, voluntary or compulsory membership, the provision of services and financial independence. Comparisons are also made with the experience of business associations in other free market economies.
