Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the competitiveness of the branch structure of manufac-turing industry in the Slovak Republic between 1998 and 2008. An analysis of the competitiveness at the branch level is performed as a national economy evaluation using a branch approach, with the consequent overlapping between the perception of the competitiveness at the macro and meso levels. The actual competitiveness of Slovak manufacturing industry was analysed by means of standard indicators at the branch level (RCA, Michaely’s index), and through the application of the market segmentation method.
