This change resulted in the discovery of concepts like heterogeneity, and the expansion of the topics under research. Several papers appeared to analyse the drivers of firms’ performance, growth, or likelihood of survival. There was also a switch on the evaluation of the business environment quality, in addition to objective indicators, perception-based indicators started to be used. One example of these new indicators is the firms’ perception of framework regulation costs. Such costs consist of adverse effects that constrain enterprises and are not related to their activities. This research investigates the different firms’ perceptions of the framework regulation costs. Additionally, finds the determinants of such differences. And, by deploying the Self-Organizing Maps approach, this work proposes a taxonomy of non-financial firms according to their perceptions of framework regulation costs. The results suggest the existence of a taxonomy that splits the non-financial companies into three groups: judicially dominated companies, constraint-free companies, and constraint dominated companies. These groups are robust and, we claim, should be taken into account when designing regulatory policy.Damásio, Bruno Miguel PintoMendonça, Sandro Miguel FerreiraRUNRibeiro, Bruna Ganchas2022-03-03T18:49:06Z2022-02-032022-02-03T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/133850TID:202952096enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:12:27Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/133850Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:47:57.383051Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
