    Series Information

    The baseline ES for Bulgaria contains a total of 772 interviews conducted from January 2019 through March 2020. The follow-up data can be merged with the baseline data set using the variable idstd. The follow-up surveys re-contact all establishments sampled in the standard ES. The dataset contains all observations from the standard ES with the variable eligibilitycode indicating the outcome after attempting to reach the corresponding firm. Reference to last completed month in data : June/August. For more information regarding the ES follow-up surveys on COVID-19, visit: https://www.enterprisesurveys.org/en/covid-19
    Abstract

    As part of the efforts of the World Bank Group to understand the impact of COVID-19 on the private sector, the Enterprise Analysis unit is conducting follow-up surveys on recently completed Enterprise Surveys (ES) in several countries. These short surveys follow the baseline ES and are designed to provide quick information on the impact and adjustments that COVID-19 has brought about in the private sector.

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    The follow-up surveys re-contact all establishments sampled in the standard ES using stratified random sampling. The total sample target was 772. Sample Frame Source : Completed interviews in the Bulgaria 2019 ES. For more information on sampling methodology, see https://www.enterprisesurveys.org/content/dam/enterprisesurveys/documents/methodology/Sampling_Note.pdf
    Weighting

    The dataset contains three weight variables. The baseline weights are denoted wmedian_ES and are used to compute the indicators that project to the baseline Universe (e.g. exit rates). To account for non-response in the follow-up, these sampling weights are adjusted by cell of stratification (combination of size, sector, and location). The resulting variable wmedian_COVID — recommended to be used for analysis and used to compute all other indicators — assumes that businesses that could not be re-contacted (unobtainable) have exited the market. The variable wweak_COVID assumes that unobtainable businesses continue to exist. Establishments that have closed permanently are interviewed using a short questionnaire which is also available in the dataset. Figure 1 of the survey report reflects the outcome of attempting to re-contact the entire sample from the baseline ES.
