Spatial Structure of Headquarters of Largest Enterprises in the Czech Republic
Original language description
This paper analyzes spatial distribution of headquarters of largest enterprises in the Czech Republic. We focus on NUTS III regions. Using data of 635 headquarters obtained from database Albertina, we study selected aspects, such as geographic or economic power concentration. The Theil index is applied as a measure of concentration. The results show the spatial concentration of the company's headquarters in the capital city of Prague and its surroundings. Similarly, the economic power measured by turnover is concentrated in this region. The Lorenz curve shows the substantial differences among large enterprises in terms of turnover size in 2015. The top 100 largest enterprises (i.e. 15.74%) generate nearly 65% of total turnover. These companies are 70% owned by foreign owners. Thus, external decision-making affects a substantial part of the largest enterprises in the Czech Republic.
