Since the quality of the business environment is decisive for the inflow of investments in the country, this paper is focused on a brief analysis of the Slovak business environment based on international indicators.

It is clear from this that the business environment is a complex variable, including many areas. Therefore, this paper will point to some selected areas of business environment in Slovakia. A sustainable busines environment constantly innovates and simplifies individual indicators affecting businesses on the market. The paper provides results of the analysis of business environments of Slovakia over 2012–2018 (GCI) on the basis of data provided by organisations dealing with business environment surveys such as the World Bank and World Economic Forum.
