Institutional Finance to MSMEs
Financing Constraints of SMEs in Developing Countries (Beck 2007) Key Findings: Capital access and costs are ranked as one of the most constraining features of SMEs; Smaller firms report higher financing obstacles along the capital structure spectrum than larger firms; Banking systems systematically underserve the SME sector relativeto larger firms (30% of large firms use bank finance to finance new investment relative to 12% of smaller firms); Smaller firms’ financing obstacles have almost twice the effect on their growth as larger firms’ capital constraints; Export, leasing, and long-term finance are also scarcer for SME firms.
