dc.description.abstractDo Inquérito ao Empreendedorismo do Banco Mundial (WBGES 2008) resultou uma extensa base de dados de cerca de uma centena de países. Com base nesta fonte de informação, exploram-se as trajectórias de evolução da criação de empresas entre 2000 e 2007, em Portugal e Espanha. A informação disponível para as duas economias é ainda comparada com fontes adicionais de informação nacional e internacional. A análise dos dados do WBGES valida estudos anteriores, que apontam para taxas de criação de empresas em Portugal relativamente mais elevadas. Portugal evidencia ainda uma volatilidade superior no que se refere ao registo de empresas, enquanto Espanha detém uma densidade empresarial considerável. Finalmente, observa-se que Portugal e Espanha apresentam densidades empresariais superiores à média da União Europeia e da OCDE, mas possuem taxas de registo de novas empresas relativamente mais baixas, o que leva a concluir por uma relativa menor dinâmica empresarial a nível ibérico.por
dc.description.abstractThe World Bank Group Entrepreneurship Survey (WBGES 2008) comprehends an extensive firm registry database of around one hundred countries. Based on this data source, we explore the trajectories of business creation from 2000 to 2007, among two both geographically and economically linked countries, Portugal and Spain, and of these as compared to the European Union and the OECD, as well as other countries and information sources. The WBGES evidence is supportive of conclusions of previous studies, which pointed to relatively higher business creation rates in Portugal. Moreover, the data shows that Portugal has a higher volatility in overall firm registers and that Spain has a considerable business density. Finally, we observe that Portugal and Spain show higher business densities than the European Union and the OCDE´s average, but have lower creation rates of new business, pointing to a lower business dynamics in these two Iberian countries.por
