Businesses need to be flexible enough to respond to changing rules and policies. This is true not only at the national level but more locally as well, as states and municipalities have their own sets of rules. Indeed, there are also international treaties that can influence the way companies do business.

The government can implement a policy that changes the social behavior in the business environment. For example, the government can levy taxes on the use of carbon-based fuels and grant subsidies for businesses that use renewable energy. The government can underwrite the development of new technology that will bring the necessary change. Imposing on a particular sector more taxes or duties than are necessary will make the investors lose interest in that sector.

Similarly, tax and duty exemptions on a particular sector trigger investment in it and may generate growth. For example, a high tax rate on imported goods may encourage local production of the same goods. On the other hand, a high tax rate for raw materials hampers domestic production. This study was carried out to study the effect of government policy.
