The authors of the rating note that private business keeps developing in Belarus despite all the obstacles. It is active in Minsk and even in the provinces.

The authors have confessed that the rating can also represent the market cost of the participants’ businesses. However, “it has been decided not to publish the participants’ “cost” due to the specific character of running a business in Belarus and its level of publicity”. Success and influence were the traditional criteria used to distribute the positions.
