SICLASS: Forecasting the European Enterprise Sector by Industry and Size Class

Working Papers from NEUHUYS - RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR SMALL AND MEDIUM

Abstract: It is generally acknowledged that the size-class distribution of enterprises in a country is an important characteristic of its economy. The EU countries are increasingly co-operating and adjusting to each other's needs in order to achieve optimal joint output. However, country differences -at least for the coming decade- cannot, to say the least, be ignored. Accordingly, the existing differences in (and policies towards) size-class structures should be acknowledged. Given the development of continuing co-operation, this gives great support for a model at Eu-level in which size classes are modelled explicitly. SICLASS is such a model.
