Sampling

Sampling Procedure

The sampling strategy involves re-contacting all establishments, sampled in the standard ES using stratified random sampling. The total sample target was 360. Sample Frame Source : Completed interviews in the Moldova 2019 ES. For more information on sampling methodology, see https://www.enterprisesurveys.org/content/dam/enterprisesurveys/documents/methodology/Sampling_Note.pdf

Weighting

The data is representative of the universe of the baseline. The dataset contains three weights variables. The baseline weights are denoted wmedian_ES which are used to compute the indicators on the baseline. To account for non-response due to refusals in the follow-up, Sampling weights are adjusted by cell of Stratification (combination of size, sector, and location). The resulting variable wmedian_COVID, recommended to be used for analysis, assumes unobtainable businesses have discontinued and is used for computing indicators. Resulting variable wweak_COVID assumes unobtainable businesses continue to exist. Confirmed exits are administered a short questionnaire which is also available in the dataset. Figure 1 of the survey report reflects the outcome of attempting to complete the entire sample from the baseline.
