Resumen
Descripción
This report offers strategic and
actionable guidance to policymakers in strengthening their
access to finance policies for small and medium enterprises
(SMEs). This report emphasizes the need to improve the
enabling environment for SME debt and equity financing. It
outlines a roadmap of eight key actions to guide
policymakers in achieving this. While such reforms are
necessary, they are often insufficient to fully address SME
financing constraints. Targeted financial programs thus
remain essential to bridge the financing gaps effectively.
This report outlines seven actions to improve the design and
implementation of these interventions to maximize their
impact and the effective use of public funding. This report
also underscores the importance of a tailored approach to
address the distinct challenges faced by specific SME
segments, particularly those of women-owned (and led) SMEs,
SMEs in agriculture, SMEs in fragile and conflict-affected
states, and those seeking financing for climate change
adaptation and mitigation.
