Abstract

The Regional competitiveness index is the first measure of the degree of competitiveness at regional level covering all EU countries and their regions. The paper presents briefly a literature review on measuring regional competitiveness, as well as the methodological frame of the RCI and then applies it to Yuzhen Centralen Region. The results show the relative place of the region among Bulgarian and EU regions and allow for conclusions to be drawn about their strengths and weaknesses regarding the overall regional development.
