Compliance Approaches and Practices for Increasing Competitiveness of Industrial Enterprises: Current Research and Future Agenda

The paper addresses an issue of increasing competitiveness of Russia’s industrial enterprises, focusing on such non-conventional ways as looking into an administrative burden and effective compliance practices and approaches. In turn, the conducted literature review clearly demonstrates that there is no research on the compliance-competitiveness nexus, which could be used for further studies with respect to industry. Consequently, the author argues that it is highly necessary to explore cause-and-effect relationships between “compliance” and “competitiveness,” and only then one could move to study particular cases in various industries. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
