Such an environment is characterized by interdependencies between institutions and economic development. Entrepreneurs, reacting to deep-rooted incentives of institutional framework, are the major determinants of change. Organizations reflect the opportunities created by the institutions concerned. Institutional transformation is the result of the interaction between organizations and institutions. The costs of contracts binding and market information studies affect institutional characteristics. The institutional characteristics, in turn, determine entrepreneurial activities. The findings of this research indicate that the institutional theory of Douglass North has influenced the entrepreneurial theorists’ institutional explanations hence, the institutional approach to entrepreneurship has been recently extended to the entrepreneurship literature
