8. Conclusions
SME’s are cautious
about their business
activity in 2014.
SME’s mostly count on
domestic markets
growth.
Export is somewhat less
under attention than a
year ago.
There will be stability on
the job market.
Innovation is
troublesome factor –
half of the companies in
Estonia and ¾ in Latvia
and Lithuania are not
planning to improve their
business this year.
2014-01-29 | | BALTIC BUSINESS OUTLOOK, JANUARY 2014
SME’s expect considerable
investment activity, but more
on small-scale.
For long-term success more
attention to innovation is needed.
