Political Risks for MNEs in Hungary under Orbán

In the view of some managers, (semi-)authoritarian rule has advantages for MNEs due to centralised and quick decision-making processes. Taking Hungary under Orbán as example, we show that this is only one side of the coin. On the other side, such systems are characterised by political risks such as quick policy changes, clientelism and favouritism as well as a weak rule of law.
