Definition: Enterprise closures

Category: Business demography

Enterprises that are not active in a given period, but were active in the previous period. The number of enterprise deaths is derived from the population of enterprise closures by removing reactivations within two years and closures that do not meet the definition of enterprise deaths. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/statmanuals/files/KS-RA-07-010-EN.pdf
