Summary: | This report was co-funded by research
grant from the World Bank's research committee for a
regional study evaluating Small and Medium Enterprise (SME)
Support Programs in Latin America and support from the
poverty reduction and economic management division of the
Latin America and Caribbean Region of the World Bank. The
objective of the study was to rigorously evaluate SME
programs in four Latin American countries Mexico, Chile,
Colombia and Peru to gain insights into whether SME programs
work, which programs perform better than others, and why.
This report should be of interest to country governments,
policymakers with responsibilities for SMEs, local
researchers and the private sector in the region, as well as
World Bank staff and bilateral donors. However, the findings
and conclusions expressed in this report are entirely those
of the authors, and do not necessarily represent the
opinions of the World Bank, its Board of Directors or the
countries it represents. |
