Abstract
A surge in new firm registrations have been one of the most intriguing outcomes of the economic turbulence caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Turkey followed a similar pattern to many other economies that observed an initial drop and a rapid V-shaped recovery of entry when the virus hit the country. However, the size distribution of new firms has been very different. While others experience a strong rise in smaller entrants, larger firms have dominated the pack in Turkey. As a widely-known long-term problem of the Turkish economy, which has been accused of causing the stagnation of growth, miniscule firms have been losing their weight rapidly among the entrants. It revives lost hopes for the future of the economy and also motivates questions regarding the other determinants of such transformation in new firm formation.

The End of the Corporation: Transformation in Corporate Governance
In this chapter, the term ‘corporation’ is used to refer to limited liability joint stock companies, both publicly traded corporations and private (‘closely held’) companies. As such, single proprietorships and partnerships are excluded from our definition of a corporation.
