Special attention is paid to the impact of the geoeconomic factor on the comparative economic competitiveness – what is the geoeconomics specificity and what impact has on the economic development of Bulgaria. Some conclusions about the Bulgarian competitiveness are made based on the results of the study; pointing out certain opportunities for increase.
