This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful startups and small businesses can play a significant role in economic growth and job creation. They also contribute to economic dynamism by spurring innovation and injecting competition. Startups are known to introduce new products and services that can create new value in the economy. It is notable that most startups exit within their first ten years, and most surviving young businesses do not grow but remain small. Startups and small businesses face several obstacles to their development. Accessing capital is a crucial constraint on their growth. Most startups and small businesses have difficulties getting the funds they need because of their lack of a performance track record and lack of collateral, making it difficult for lenders or investors to assess their risk. Besides, they are in the early stages of development and face a very high possibility of failure, which significantly raises financing and investment risk.Investment in Startups and Small Business Financing provides 12 thematic and case studies on new methods for bringing private investment (loans or equity) to startups and easing small businesses' access to finance (debt and capital). The contributors are senior-level policy experts and researchers from governments, think tanks, academia, and international organizations. The chapters are authored in a policy-oriented way to be understandable for the readers with a different background. This book is a precious source for the governments for adopting the right policies to develop small businesses and startups and valuable for the researchers in economics, business, and finance.

Download or read book Can UK Small Businesses Obtain Growth Capital in the Public Equity Markets An Overview of the Shortcomings in the UK and European Securities Regulation and Considerations for Reform written by Hse-Yu Chiu and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article deals with several aspects of the need for growth capital for small businesses in the UK. First, the article makes a comparison between equity and debt capital as financing options for a growing small business. The article then advocates the superiority of equity capital in meeting small business needs. Equity capital, supported by the legal rules on the maintenance of capital, provides small businesses a degree of permanence that is important for growth purposes. The article then examines the advantages of public equity financing and advocates the view that public equity is better suited to meet growth capital needs because it allows perpetuity in the capital provided. This degree of perpetuity is provided by the availability of secondary markets where shares could change hands. The article next explores the weaknesses in the UK and European legal infrastructure in securities regulation and why it does not meet small business needs in seeking public equity financing. These weaknesses may be further augmented if the European draft Prospectus Directive comes to pass. This article concludes by recommending that Europe should consider the modification of its one-size-fits-all mandatory disclosure rules in securities regulation and adopt a tiered disclosure regime based on issue size, akin to U.S. federal securities law, in order to facilitate small business access to the public equity markets.

Download or read book The SME Financing Gap Theory and evidence written by and published by OECD Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lack of funding available from the financial sector for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is known as the financing gap. This report analyzes this gap for both credit and equity financing and seeks to determine how prevalent such a gap may be, both among OECD countries and non-OECD economies, and recommends measures to foster an improved flow of financing to SMEs and entrepreneurs. A significant number of entrepreneurs and SMEs could use funds productively if they were available, but are often denied access to financing. This impedes their creation and growth. The "financing gap" was the subject of the OECD Global Conference on "Better Financing for Entrepreneurship and SME Growth", held in Brasilia, Brazil in March 2006. Vol. 2 presents a synthesis of the Conference discussions on the credit and equity financing gaps, as well as on private equity definitions and measurements. It also offers a selection of papers given by some of the key stakeholders (SMEs, government and financial institutions) confronting these issues.--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Crack the Funding Code written by Judy Robinett and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crack the Funding Code demystifies the world of angel investing, venture capital, and corporate funding and lays out a strategic pathway for any entrepreneur to secure funding fast. Lack of funding is one of the biggest reasons small businesses fail. In 2016 in the United States alone, more than 31 percent of small business owners reported that they could not access adequate capital, and the lack of capital prevented them from growing the business/expanding operations, increasing inventory, or financing increased sales. This book will show you how to find the money, create pitches that attract investors, and then structure fair, ethical deals that will bring them new sources of outside capital and invaluable professional advice. Crack the Funding Code gives you the broader perspective on: how funding works, how investors think, and what they need to hear to put their money where your mouth is. Every entrepreneur who reads this book will get easy-to-follow deal checklists, a roadmap of where and how to locate the best funding resources and top business mentors for their industry or geographical location, and a step-by-step process to create pitches that make their idea or business irresistible.
Download or read book Capital Access written by Hope Drexler and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines access to capital by young and small businesses. The purpose of the investigation is to gain a better understanding of access to capital by young firms and how the recent economic and financial crisis has affected their access to financial capital, especially among firms owned by women and minorities and firms that are high tech in nature. In light of the key role in small business finance played by financial institutions, this book pays disproportionate attention to access of bank loans. Although these issues are important, research has traditionally been limited by a lack of appropriate data. A primary obstacle has been the absence of representative samples of small businesses that contain detailed descriptions of their access to financing. The primary source of data on this question, the Federal Reserve Survey of Small Business Finances, was discontinued in 2003, and is thus unavailable for studying the effects of the financial crisis on small businesses. A second obstacle has been the tendency of researchers to analyse data on cross sections of small businesses of varying ages and sizes at a single point in time. While the findings from these snapshots have been valuable to scholars and policy-makers, they have also been limited. Because they are static, these snapshots do not capture the ways in which small business financing unfolds over the life cycle of the firm and changes over time. This book attempts to overcome these obstacles by examining the effects of the changing financial environment generally and the economic crisis specifically, on access to capital by small businesses over the 2004 through 2010 period, controlling for business and owner characteristics.
