Analysis of trade efficiency in Serbia based on the MABAC method

Abstract

In recent times, as it is well known, various methods of multi-criteria analysis are increasingly used in order to evaluate the efficiency of companies more accurately. One of them is the MABAC method. With this in mind, this paper analyzes trade efficiency in Serbia on the basis of this method. Trade in Serbia was the most efficient in the observed period (2013-2020) in 2020. The general conclusion is that recently, under the positive influence of numerous macro and micro factors, trade efficiency in Serbia has increased. The impact of Covid-19 on trade efficiency in Serbia is negligible. It has been largely compensated by increased electronic sales.
