Download or read book Financing Small and Medium Sized Enterprises in Asia and the Pacific written by Asian Development Bank and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are widely regarded as the backbone of economies and make a unique contribution to gross domestic product, exports, and employment. Yet, SMEs face multiple challenges in gaining access to finance that can fuel their growth. This publication scrutinizes the multiple factors affecting SMEs’ access to finance and the impact of credit guarantee schemes (CGSs), examines country case studies from across the globe, and highlights the financial and economic additionality of CGSs when they are rigorously setup. To support Asia and Pacific economies, the publication suggests operational policy recommendations for the key priority areas of CGSs, focusing on legal and regulatory setup, corporate governance, services offered, risk management, and monitoring.

Book Informe mundial sobre las drogas 2010

Download or read book Informe mundial sobre las drogas 2010 written by United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and published by United Nations. This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Para preparar dicho Informe Mundial sobre las Drogas, la UNODC depende de los datos que los Estados Miembros proporcionan, fundamentalmente mediante los cuestionarios para los informes anuales. Los cuestionarios se distribuyeron a 192 Estados Miembros y la UNODC recibió de estos Estados Miembros (y territorios) 110 respuestas a la sección sobre el consumo ilícito y 114 respuestas a la sección sobre la oferta ilícita de drogas. Los Estados Miembros suelen estar en condiciones mucho mejores de proporcionar información sobre la oferta ilícita de drogas que sobre la demanda. Pese a un meritorio avance, por ejemplo, en materia de estimaciones de la prevalencia, queda mucho por hacer para poder contar con una base sólida y fiable para un análisis de las tendencias y las políticas. El Informe incluye análisis en profundidad e intersectorial de los mercados transnacionales de drogas (capítulo 1), así como los últimos datos y tendencias estadísticas sobre la situación mundial de las drogas (capítulo 2). Este año se analiza también en el Informe la repercusión del tráfico transnacional ilícito en los países de tránsito (capítulo 3).

Book Finanzas municipales

Download or read book Finanzas municipales written by Catherine D. Farvacque-Vitkovic and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-10-26 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde Detroit hasta Lahore, la mayoría de las ciudades del mundo enfrentan problemas financieros, y aun así se espera que lleven a cabo sus funciones cada vez más complejas. Finanzas municipales - Manual para los gobiernos locales toma partido. Se pone del lado de los alcaldes y de los responsables de los asuntos municipales. Son escasas las publicaciones sobre este tema dirigidas tan directa y pragmáticamente a las autoridades decisorias y al personal financiero a nivel local. El contenido y los mensajes principales procuran responder a las inquietudes y a las cuestiones que enfrentan diariamente las ciudades y los municipios en la administración de sus finanzas. Finanzas municipales - Manual para los gobiernos locales asume una posición. En ocho capítulos, en esta obra se pasa revista a las lecciones aprendidas sobre relaciones intergubernamentales; finanzas de las áreas metropolitanas; gestión financiera, de los ingresos, de los gastos y de los activos públicos; financiamiento externo, y medición del desempeño de las finanzas municipales. Abarca temas tales como la descentralización, la transparencia y la rendición de cuentas, y aborda temas menos explorados como la gestión de activos, la capacidad crediticia, la respuesta frente a crisis financieras y los mecanismos de presentación de informes a los diversos niveles de gobierno y a la ciudadanía. Finanzas municipales - Manual para los gobiernos locales hace un llamado a la acción. No solo aporta conocimientos de avanzada en muchas cuestiones técnicas, sino que también guía a los gobiernos locales en el laberinto de los instrumentos existentes. En particular, la autoevaluación de las finanzas municipales que se propone en el capítulo 8 debería ayudar a los municipios a evaluar su propia situación y a avanzar en la senda de las reformas.

Book Economic Corridors in Asia  Paradigm of Integration  A Reflection for Latin America

Download or read book Economic Corridors in Asia Paradigm of Integration A Reflection for Latin America written by Varios Autores and published by U. Externado de Colombia. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global geopolitics has shifted dramatically over the last thirty years. After the vanishing expectations of a unipolar international system led by the United States, China has gained an increasingly dominant role in areas as innovative as quantum computing, robotics and artificial intelligence. In the non-digital dimension, the eastern superpower has made gigantic investments in its Belt and Road Initiative, which include the development of a massive network of highways, industrial centers, harbors, pipelines and bridges, among many other works of infrastructure. These investments allow for the connection of more than 60 countries worldwide, guaranteeing China s energetic security, easier conditions for trading goods and services and, perhaps more importantly, a significant influence in the political and economic events of the world. States with political regimes as diverse as those of Russia and India are part of this growing network; in various cases, in exchange for the benefits associated wi th being part of it, major concessions were made. By way of illustration, Sri Lanka and Pakistan, among others, given their lack of capacity to pay for sorne of the works, have agreed to forfeit control of specific areas of their territories.
