The number of newly registered limited liability companies over a year. Only they are counted: sole proprietorships, partnerships and cooperatives do not enter, so in countries where small business prefers simpler legal forms the indicator understates entrepreneurial activity.
Important: Limited liability companies only. Registration is not the start of activity: some registered companies never begin to operate.
