Summary/Abstract: In the context of the EU financial perspective 2014–2020, it is necessary to assess the efficiency of the solutions used in the period 2007–2013. Activities involving direct and indirect support for the development of business entities accounted for almost 63% of the total EU budget for rural areas. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficiency of entrepreneurship support in rural communes in Poland. The main input in measuring the efficiency ratio was disbursed expenditures (volume of funds spent under three operational programs) to the achieved results expressed in the number of operating entities. The study involved 1202 rural communities located in rural areas in Poland. Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) has been used. The results indicate the unsatisfactory efficiency of the instruments used in the light of the results achieved, and significant spatial, size and income differences in individual efficiency ratios of communes.
