The impact of economic liberalization on small companies' competitiveness
The economic liberalization programmes being introduced in many countries are fundamentally changing companies' sources of competitive advantage, and forcing them to re-examine their business strategies in order to survive and thrive in the new, more competitive, environment. Liberalization'seffects vary across companies; the impact on small companies is significantly different from that on large ones. This article analyses how liberalization is likely to affect small companies, and suggests that in order to enable them to tackle the new threats and opportunities stemming from
liberalization, there may be a need to change the focus of government support.
