Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 2, Bharathiar University, language: English, abstract: The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in the economic and social development of the country, often acting as a weapon for fighting against poverty. They also play a key role in the development of the economy with their effective, efficient, flexible, and innovative entrepreneurial spirit. The MSME sector contributes significantly to the country’s manufacturing output, employment, and exports and is credited with generating the highest employment growth as well as accounting for a major share of industrial production and exports. The MSME sector in India is highly heterogeneous in terms of the size of the enterprises, variety of products, services and levels of technology. Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) contribute nearly 22 percent of the country’s GDP, 45 percent of the manufacturing output and 40 percent of the exports. They provide the largest share of employment after agriculture. The book is based on a research study conducted in one of the municipal regions of Tamil Nadu. This study aims to bring out the performance, problems, and prospects of Micro Enterprises promoted under Swarna Jayanti Shahari Rozgar Yojana (SJSRY) operating in Tiruppur municipal region of Tamil Nadu. It presents how the micro-enterprises helped the members of self-help groups to come up from poverty. The book also contains the reasons for failure of micro-enterprises.
Download or read book Small and Medium Enterprises Growth and Poverty written by Thorsten Beck and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2003 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beck, Demirgüç-Kunt, and Levine explore the relationship between the relative size of the small and medium enterprise (SME) sector, economic growth, and poverty using a new database on the share of SME labor in the total manufacturing labor force. Using a sample of 76 countries, they find a strong association between the importance of SMEs and GDP per capita growth. This relationship, however, is not robust to controlling for simultaneity bias. So, while a large SME sector is characteristic of successful economies, the data fail to support the hypothesis that SMEs exert a causal impact on growth. Furthermore, the authors find no evidence that SMEs reduce poverty. Finally, they find qualified evidence that the overall business environment facing both large and small firms--as measured by the ease of firm entry and exit, sound property rights, and contract enforcement--influences economic growth. This paper--a product of Finance, Development Research Group--is part of a larger effort in the group to understand the role of SMEs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fight rural poverty through the creation of significant policy mechanisms, microenterprises, and employment programs The majority of the world’s poor live in Asia, and most of these live in rural areas. These areas are also infamous for the food insecurity and malnutrition associated with poverty. Making even a modest dent in rural Asian poverty has the potential to realize large gains in global human development. Reducing Rural Poverty in Asia provides evidence-based guidelines for policymakers in developing countries, for researchers focusing on development problems, and for the international development assistance community in the continuing search for ways to effectively reduce poverty in the developing world. Detailed examinations are clearly presented on the efforts for poverty alleviation through microenterprise development and rural public employment programs that focus on public works and household/small-scale industries. Asia-based case studies of various microenterprises and rural public employment projects reveal important policy mechanisms and the effectiveness of each poverty reduction measure. Tables, figures, and relevant glossaries make unfamiliar terms and difficult information easy to understand. Part I of Reducing Rural Poverty in Asia: presents a framework for the analysis of rural microenterprises with a focus on microfinance highlights the main findings of country-specific case studies suggests guidelines for an appropriate strategy for the provision of microfinance to reach the poor, alleviate poverty, and create financial stability analyzes the issues relating to public wage employment schemes and the principal findings of the case studies draws policy conclusions for the formulation of effective public employment schemes Part II of Reducing Rural Poverty in Asia presents case studies conducted in India, Bangladesh, and the Philippines—along with revealing conclusions.

Book excerpt: This is a critical examination of the relative importance of electricity in the economics of growth, poverty reduction and the success of micro-enterprise with a direct impact on livelihood. While not all governments in developing countries seem to acknowledge the importance of the relationship between energy (electricity) and poverty reduction, some do recognize it as an essential link when promoting economic development. This research provides empirical data on the link between electricity and poverty reduction. It considers the role of electricity in poverty reduction through an assessment of the impact of acquiring and continuous access to electricity by micro enterprises and the impact of the changes on the livelihoods of their household. This describes the problem formulation thus: Does acquiring access to electricity have any effect on the viability of micro enterprises (ME) and poverty reduction? The focus is on the changes in the livelihood of the ME. Six main assets are identified as important to the livelihood of ME; human, social, technological, natural, physical and financial assets.

Download or read book Development of Microenterprise Lays on Trade Off Between SHG Business and Poor Families Wage Job written by S. Rajbongshi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies the perplexity of scope for poor families in the establishment of microenterprises through SHG businesses. It is a buzz word in the SHG businesses that a matured SHG group has the capacity to establish microenterprises to support their families with income and employment to enhance their poverty level. The growth hierarchical system of SHGs under the programme seems very easy and it tells that promotion of SHG-business means eradication of poverty and income generation for the masses. But the practical field says something else which may not be suitable to listen because the trade-off between the SHG-business and wage-job is stood as an impediment for internal self motivation of members to the growth and development of microenterprises. This paper tries to analyse in the purview of income earning capacity of members of a group and the situation of trade-off between SHG-business and wage-job. The means of main income sources to run SHG-members' family is basically the wage-job on which most of them are dependent. In this case the motivational factors of programmes fail to work on the members of SHGs to lure them solely for the business of SHGs. Besides, in practical, income from SHG businesses is not sufficient to manage the household expenditure as well as the cost of capital investment in the businesses of SHGs. Hence, the members from poor families arrive at a decision where have to go for the sustainability of their household. Is it to go for SHG business which cannot supplement their main source of income for their families? Or should they go for wage job that old practice which may give at least some daily support than new one. The wage-job at least can give a way to survive somehow without any risk of failure and without incurring loss for the investment. The resulted explanations in the paper have tried to show some intervening present scenario of micro credit programmes and status of members of group businesses in Meghalaya.
Download or read book Small and Medium sized Enterprises SMEs and Poverty Reduction in Africa written by Aminu Mamman and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Poverty Reduction in Africa addresses the vital question of why the millions of dollars of governmentsâ (TM) and international development interventions in the SMEs sector are yet to deliver significant and sustainable employment and poverty reduction in Africa. The book also addresses the question of how the SMEs sector can help in the eradication of poverty in Africa. The book also tackles the question of what policy makers, SMEs operators, would-be entrepreneurs and trainers can do to contribute to poverty reduction through the SMEs sector. To address these three key questions, the book has adopted innovative concepts and ideas that will appeal to the sensibilities of African policy makers, trainers, business operators and would-be entrepreneurs. For example, the existing literature on system thinking and spirituality in business is used to offer a novel approach and departure from the perennial focus on â oetechnical trainingâ and hardnosed pursuit of â oeindividualisedâ business and personal goals as a means of developing entrepreneurs and crafting SMEs policy. The key features of the book are: â [ a focus on changing the mind-set of SMEs operators, policy makers, trainers and would-be entrepreneurs; â [ contextualising the role of SMEs in poverty reduction by emphasizing the relevance of the African worldview, belief systems and spirituality during policy making, policy implementation and training of SMEs operators and would-be entrepreneurs; â [ theoretical explanations to why good intentions in policy formulation and implementation do not deliver expected outcomes in terms of the SMEs sectorâ (TM)s contribution to poverty reduction; â [ practical guidelines on how SMEs can develop a poverty-related mission statement, business strategy and business plan within the context of poverty reduction; â [ personal development guidelines for SMEs operators and prospective entrepreneurs on how to develop poverty-related personal mission statements and strategies; â [ the introduction of spiritual poverty and system thinking as the foundation for policy formulation and poverty reduction interventions in Africa.
