Abstract
Wir betrachten die Kleinteiligkeit der ostdeutschen Wirtschaft aus den Blickwinkeln der Überlebenswahrscheinlichkeit und der Beschäftigungsentwicklung. Hierzu analysieren wir anhand des Betriebshistorik - panels Betriebe, die in den Jahren 1995 bis 1998 gegründet wurden. Für die Neugründungen identifizieren wir in Ostdeutschland eine geringere Überlebenswahrscheinlichkeit, aber keine spezifischen Wachstumshemmnisse in den ersten zehn Jahren nach der Betriebsgründung. Vielmehr haben in Ost- wie in Westdeutschland weniger als 1% aller neugegründeten Betriebe in ihrem zehnten Lebensjahr erst die Schwelle von 100 sozialversicherungspflichtig Beschäftigten überschritten. Es ist daher nicht zu erwarten, dass neugegründete Betriebe einen signifikanten Beitrag zur Überwindung der Kleinteiligkeit der ostdeutschen Wirtschaft beitragen können.
