Download or read book Female Entrepreneurs Who Succeed in Male Dominated Sectors in Ethiopia written by Salman Alibhai and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In developing countries, female entrepreneurs have low returns. Yet, the few women who cross over into traditionally male-dominated sectors double their profits. So why don't more women cross over? When parents and husbands support them, women are more likely to cross over. When they lack information on the earnings potential in male-dominated sectors, they are less likely to. This suggests a path to promote women entrepreneurs crossing over. The challenges Ethiopian women face in getting jobs and earning income come from a range of sources. Women start from a more difficult situation than men --without easy access to finance, land, training, education and effective business networks. The share of women in Ethiopia without education is almost twice that of men, which in turn limits women entrepreneurs' ability to grow their businesses. Reducing gender inequalities in education and the labor market could increase annual GDP growth in Ethiopia by around 1.9 percentage points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to a 2018 World Bank report, Africa is the only region with more women than men choosing to become entrepreneurs – a phenomenon that is not the subject of adequate discussion. This book reveals the latest research-based understanding of the entrepreneurial activities of women in sub-Saharan Africa. Specially invited subject experts present salient dimensions of entrepreneurship by African women, from environmental factors to motivations and influencers as well as financial and non-financial constraints, and highlight the significant role of cultural differences. This book provides a mixture of theoretical, conceptual, and empirical research, and fills the knowledge gap by presenting a wide range of opportunities and challenges faced by sub-Saharan African women entrepreneurs. This book will help policy makers and academic researchers in understanding the role of institutions and entrepreneurship policy in building a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem in the region.

Book excerpt: The challenges faced by women-owned enterprises in the developing world are substantial. Only one-third of the world's SMEs in the formal sector are currently run by women, and women owned businesses typically underperform men's. Across countries and contexts, access to finance is continuously identified as the leading constraint faced by women entrepreneurs. While finance is a challenge for male and female enterprises alike, the difficulties are amplified for women, who are less likely to own assets which can serve as collateral andare more likely to suffer exclusion based on unequal property rights or discriminatory regulations, laws and customs. An estimated 70 percent of women-owned SMEs in the formal sector in developing countries are unserved or underserved by financial institutions.This amounts to a financing gap of 285 billion dollars. A diverse range of economic research shows that addressing this financing gap and investing in women-owned enterprises is one of the highes treturn opportunities available in emerging markets.As they grow, women-owned enterprises enhance labor participation and boost broad-based economic growth. In particular, due to higher female unemployment rates and the fact that women are more likely to hire other women, the growth offemale-owned enterprises can be a key driver in reducing high overall unemployment rates.
