Factors influencing policy choice at businesses in an emerging economy: The case of Vietnam

Abstract: The technological revolution has been taking place and rapidly changing many activities in social life, and especially in businesses. The benefits of the technological revolution led to changes in policies for businesses and therefore require businesses to change to adapt. In operations, choosing appropriate policies plays a decisive role in the development of enterprises in production and business, optimizing production activities and dominating the market. Conducting a survey of 310 typical enterprises in Vietnam with stable production and business activities, using estimated regression analysis via SPSS software, the regression results show that the factors that influence the decision of the policy choices are: external groups, administrator influence, employee quality, and legal environment.
