Abstract

The paper examines the impact of the perceived characteristics of institutional environment on the creation and development of entrepreneurial orientation (EO) in Russian SMEs. As the result of empirical analysis of 500 Russian SMEs it was found that perception of environment as hostile and dynamic is connected to Russian SMEs being more prone to innovation, rick-taking and proactiveness in order to remain competitive. Perception of institutions as protection of private property rights, business dependence on personal relationships with people in power, compliance with departmental standards and availability a contract with state are positively related to the level of EO in Russian SMEs. Whereas, the level of protection of the firm by contract law is negatively related to the level of EO in Russian SMEs.
