Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) play a significant role in the Indonesian economy, however most MSMEs have difficulties in accessing finance. The Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) is a popular program for guaranteeing bank lending to MSMEs by the government. The objective of this research is to evaluate and compare the performance of the CGS in rural and urban areas of Indonesia. The data used in this research are from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2007 and 2014. We looked at the role of microfinance as a bridge for MSMEs to access credit, however our results show that this role does not function optimally for MSMEs that have no credit guarantee. MSMEs that do not have a credit guarantee do not have much opportunity to access credit from formal microfinance institutions. In addition, MSMEs in rural areas have significantly fewer opportunities to gain access to credit from formal institutions than MSMEs in urban areas.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in their growth stage reach the point where, on the one hand, personal resources do not meet their needs, and, on the other, they do not have enough collateral to attract external finance. Access to finance can be facilitated by obtaining loans from financial institutions backed by governmental credit guarantees. Therefore, the development of a sound credit guarantee scheme will be an important step in filling the financing gap of SMEs. We investigate the situation of the credit guarantee scheme for SMEs in Iran by using the available data and interviews with activists from this field with the grounded theory method. We show the weaknesses of the Iranian credit guarantee scheme, and based on the analysis, present solutions and policy recommendations in accordance with the social and economic environment of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The most important problem is the lack of a credit database for comprehensive assessment of SMEs, especially knowledge-based enterprises. The lack of a robust database makes it impossible to carry out a comprehensive evaluation because these models require a large amount of data. The lack of accurate models makes it difficult to rate credit status and thus to issue credit guarantees. In addition, the current level of the capital of the credit guarantee funds in Iran is not sufficient given the large number of SMEs in the country.

Book excerpt: Abstract: Credit Guarantee Schemes (CGSs) are a widely used policy tool to ease access to finance by SMEs, which, in some countries, ramped up in the aftermath of the 2008-09 financial crisis. The present study aims to improve understanding about the role, impact and sustainability of CGSs, by investigating their characteristics along several dimensions, such as the ownership structure and funding, the legal and regulatory framework, and the operational characteristics of the schemes, including types of services, eligibility criteria, guarantee assignment process and credit risk management. The study explores these dimensions, using detailed examples from OECD and non-OECD countries. It identifies structural and emerging challenges for the financial sustainability and the financial and economic additionality of these schemes, in a rapidly changing economic and regulatory environment. The study investigates in particular the case of Mutual Guarantee Schemes, which are created by borrowers in order to improve their access to finance
Download or read book Access by MSMEs to Finance in the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean written by Rym Ayadi and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean suffer from credit constraints. Given their contribution to employment and growth, similarly as in other regions, policy-makers have developed credit guarantee schemes (CGSs) in order to facilitate small companies' access to debt capital. CGSs are risk-sharing mechanisms under which a guarantor ensures the lender against a share of the possible losses it incurs when extending a loan. Despite the maturity of some schemes, knowledge of the schemes' functioning, operating environment as well as performance in guaranteeing loans for MSMEs is scarce. Building on a previous study of CGSs in the region, this paper extends the available knowledge on the region's schemes, building on the results of an exclusive questionnaire to gain insights into these mechanisms. First, the paper reviews the conditions of MSMEs' access to finance in the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean; second, it presents the results of the questionnaire across a number of dimensions ranging from ownership to financial performance; and third, the paper presents some avenues for future policy research in this area.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finance including Credit Guarantee for Micro & Small Enterprises (CGTMSE): Availability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals / third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE). The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure the credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed. The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavor to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency. The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that, in the event of a MSE unit, which availed collateral free credit facilities, fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender, the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 / 80/ 85 per cent of the credit facility. The aim of proposed study is to identify the problems faced by MSMEs in availing benefits under selected government schemes related to finance and to examine their effectiveness. The study is based on both secondary as primary data. Since MSMEs are envisaged to contribute 50 per cent to India's GDP and create number of jobs, this study would be helpful to encourage New Units & Units not having collateral get opportunity to expand their business by purchase of machines & modernise existing machine to produce Quality product at economic price.

Download or read book Credit Guarantees written by Michael Gudger and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of collateral is a daily issue for lenders and causes much debate in the development finance community. Given the difficulties experienced in arranging traditional forms of loan security, such as land or chattel mortgages, various collateral substitutes have been proposed. Among the substitutes for traditional collateral is the loan guarantee. Guarantee systems for loans have been proposed, planned and implemented in various countries. The assumption made by proponents of such a service is that the guarantee organization is either better informed about the risk of the loan than the lender or it is better structured financially to be able to manage the risk. Despite the apparent attractiveness of a loan guarantee, the empirical evidence available gives little encouragement. Nevertheless, interest in guarantees continues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial inclusion, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), is widely recognized as a key driver of economic growth and job creation in all economies. SMEs represent a significant part of the world economy and are one of the strongest drivers of economic development, innovation, and employment, since most formal jobs in emerging markets are SME jobs. Given that the global economy needs to generate six hundred million new jobs by 2030, SME development has become a high priority for many governments in both developing and developed economies. Access to finance remains one of the key constraints to the growth of SMEs. As part of the technical cooperation program agreement with the Saudi government, the World Bank Group (WBG) team has been working with the management and staff of the Kafalah partial credit guarantee scheme (PCGS) to provide technical assistance to strengthen Kafalah's operations, introduce products innovations, and integrate global best practices. This policy note summarizes best practices on various topics of interest to Kafalah that the WBG provided during 2018-2020.

Download or read book Albania Credit Guarantee Scheme Assessment written by Weltbank and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Albania are significant contributors to the economy. In 2018, according to the Albanian Institute of Statistics (INSTAT), 99.8 percent of active enterprises were MSMEs, employing 79.8 percent of the workforce and realizing around 69 percent of value added. At the same time, the MSME sector is generally characterized by high informality (especially in agriculture), limited availability of collateral, and low levels of financial capability. Limited access to finance, particularly bank credit, poses a challenge for MSMEs in Albania. MSMEs can only reach their full potential if they obtain the finance necessary to start, sustain, and grow their business. Albania's financial sector ranks at 102nd place out of 141 countries in the World Economic Forum 2019 Global Competitiveness Report. Credit to the domestic private sector represents only 33 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) compared to above 50 percent in regional peers, reflecting very low levels of financial intermediation. MSMEs - the backbone of the Albanian economy - face significant constraints in accessing finance, with 16 percent of small and 34 percent of medium-sized enterprises reporting access to finance as a major constraint in Albania. The overall MSME finance gap in Albania is estimated at 9 percent of GDP. The Albanian banking sector is extremely liquid and prevailing interest rates are low; however, Albanian banks are reluctant to lend to MSMEs as they perceive the sector as risky and there is a limited secondary market for movable and immovable collateral. Improving access to finance for MSMEs in the country must be tackled in a holistic and strategic manner, addressing supply, demand, and enabling environment aspects.
