Abstract

The number of European companies founded in the Czech Republic can be described as the Czech puzzle, according to the paper “The Czech Societas Europaea Puzzle” by Horst Eidenmüller and Jan Lasák. They are concerned with the question why two thirds of all European companies from all countries of the European Economic Area (EEA) are established in the Czech Republic. At the same time, there is a presumption that this phenomenon of ready-made European companies will pass away. Though, the aim of this paper was to analyse the development of newly registered European companies in the Czech Republic after 2014 and compare it with the period until the end of 2013. The authors conclude that the growth rate of European companies registered in the Czech Republic is approximately the same. By contrast, annual growth rates are rising in Germany and Slovakia which also have had a considerable number of SEs.
