Abstract

Company competitiveness and financial performance are two terms often used in literature but they usually appear distinctly and the relationship between them is not examined. This article provides a reasonable clarification regarding the concept of company competitiveness and theoretically argues for the positive influence it has on financial performance. Theoretical arguments are supported by an empirical investigation based on a linear regression model applied to a sample of 62 non-financial companies listed at Bucharest Stock Exchange. Results confirm the proposed hypothesis, showing that the two variables are positively correlated.
