Abstract
This paper investigates the existing political environment in Pakistan and its impact of
women entrepreneurial performance. The importance of having a stable political
environment for flourishing entrepreneurial activities has also been discussed. For this
purpose, the study employs a research design where self-administered questionnaires
were used to collect data from two groups of Pakistani women entrepreneurs; Registered
and Non-Registered. The registered members were selected from the seven women
chambers of commerce and industries of Pakistan using a stratified random sampling
method whereas the non-registered members were selected from the groups on Facebook.
The quantitative method of research has been employed using sample size of 506.
Multiple regression analyses reveal that there is an impact of political factors on women
entrepreneurial performance for both the groups. The results also show that women
entrepreneurs believe that government is not supporting them for carrying out the
activities for running their enterprises.
