The study covers a total of 24,813 firm-year observations. This study applied the GMM two-step estimation to capture the endogeneity problem. Our results reveal that leverage, profitability, and efficiency are the main competition determinants. In the Eurasian Union, large oil and gas companies are less competitive. It may be caused by higher corporate bureaucracy and high transaction costs. Oil and gas companies with an efficient level of sales are more competitive in the market. Also, the increase in leverage provides a tax shelter. The price cost margin, the Boone Indicator, and the firm’s income total income ratio are confirmed as efficient competition indicators. </p>}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy}, author={Damira, Aubakirova and Narimanovna, Jaxybekova Galiya and Lyazzat, Yespergenova and Rustamov, Bezhan and Faizulayev, Alimshan and Bekun, Festus Victor}, year={2022}, month={Mar.}, pages={336–341} }
