OECD International Regulation Database: Direct control over business enterprises

This spreadsheet contains data from the OECD International Regulation Database that are used to calculate the indicator of direct control over business enterprises in 1998 and 2003. This indicator measures the existence of government special voting rights in privately-owned firms, constraints on the sale of state-owned equity stakes, and the extent to which legislative bodies control the strategic choices of public enterprises, and is one of 16 low-level indicators in the system of indicators of Product Market Regulation.
