Abstract:

The small and medium-sized enterprises provide much economic dynamism for macroeconomic development in China. However, many small and medium-sized enterprises have to face financing difficulties due to external factors and internal factors, such as the willingness of financial institutions to lend and the low credit of small and medium-sized enterprises. The establishment of private banks plays a very important role in alleviating the financing difficulties of small and medium-sized enterprises and eliminating financial suppression. This paper takes the listed small and medium-sized enterprise

Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the important driving forces for the growth of China’s economy. However, financing difficulty has always been the important problem besetting the development of SMEs for a long time. In particular, in recent years, US subprime crisis in 2008 caused a heavy blow to the development of some externally oriented SMEs. Thus, how to effectively overcome financing predicament for the SMEs is crucial for Chinese government.

Abstract:

Increasing the credit of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is the key to solving SMEs’ financing difficulties. Because of their small size and fixed assets, it is not easy for SMEs to get loans from mortgage or private guarantee institutions. Therefore, to alleviate the credit rationing faced by SMEs and reduce financing cost, the key is to increase corporate credit score. This study uses small and micro-businesses’ data from Taizhou city to identify the key factors affecting corporate default.

Abstract:

In the summer of 2008, the EU Commission will present the draft regulation for a European private company. The Commission indicates by this announcement of the internal market commissioner, after prolonged hesitation that it wishes to comply with the urgent and detailed request of the European Parliament (EP) and to initiate the legislative process. Apparently, the arguments directed at the small and medium sized enterprises (SME) and their specific interests have now, after the EU parliamentarians, also convinced the Commission. In fact, the significance of this group of enterprises in the ec

Abstract:

Giving a voice to the small- and medium-sized biotech enterprises (SME) and putting Swiss biotechnology on the World map were important goals of Oreste Ghisalba when conceiving the Swiss Biotech Association (SBA). The SBA foundation was supported by the technology transfer office (TTO) Unitectra, which Ghisalba also initiated and which was instrumental in his endeavors to foster the collaboration between Swiss universities and the private sector. Laying the foundations for both the SBA and for Unitectra are major achievements of this visionary thinker.

One of the goals in the Danish Government’s strategy for growth in Denmark is to promote the awareness, access and use of research-based knowledge to citizens and institutions, both private and public. In gaining better use of research-based knowledge, Denmark’s chances of being able to play a prominent role as a knowledge society, both nationally and internationally, will substantially increase. To transform the strategy into practice Denmark’s Electronic Research Library, deff, has been created.

Abstract:

The private sector is an important actor in disaster risk reduction, and its importance has been highlighted after the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction was adopted in 2015. The role of private sectors vary from corporate social responsibility activities and creating a corporate community interface to ensuring that innovative technical solutions for disaster risk reduction are a core business. This study elaborates on different models and examples of these roles. Three critical examples come from Japan, the Philippines, and Malaysia, where private organizations work closely with nat

Abstract:

A challenge for many small and medium sized enterprises (SME) is access to financing. Using a sample of companies listed on the Shenzhen SME board over the period 2010 to 2012, I investigate the extent of political connections in SME firms. I find that private entrepreneurs with political connection have the positive effect on the firms credit financing. Further, the roles of political connections are more important in regions in which the local economy is less market-oriented. My findings support the hypothesis of rent-seeking through political participation.

Abstract:

The method of private investigations is probably the most appropriate basis for the implementation of independent external control of commercial enterprises. Indeed, if we ignore the analysis of accounting documents that are perhaps the main and only source of financial activity history for the audited company, the remaining problem of forecasting business risk remains the search for unobvious, hidden from the public eyes factors of economic life of the company. In modern crisis conditions such analysis is difficult and requires new approaches for external control.Aims and objectives. The purp

Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to examine the management control practices in small and medium-sized health care enterprises (SMEs). Previous studies suggest that there are often few, if any, comprehensive management control systems (MCS) or there is lack of systematic management accounting or performance management (PM) monitoring in even fairly large SMEs. The first contribution of this article is to present nine years of financial data of micro companies. The data itself is quite unique and not open data for everyone. On one hand, it gives further information about diverse and complex combi

Abstract:Health research is generally undertaken to resolve existing health problems or enhance existing solutions. Research ethics committees have been the main governance tool for research for more than half a century. Their role is to ensure that research is undertaken ethically. To close the increasing gap between science and society, other governance tools are required. The European Commission recommends and actively promotes the policy of responsible research and innovation (RRI). In addition to sound research ethics, a key feature of RRI is the involvement of different societal stakehol

There has been an ongoing debate for decades, especially since the inception of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), over the appropriate application of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to private companies. This so-called Big GAAP vs. Little GAAP debate has now come to a crisis point. The Financial Accounting Foundation (FAF) has taken a position that is contrary to the recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Panel on Standard Setting for Private Companies (the Panel) presented in January 2011, despite having been represented on the Panel.

AbstractWe investigate the firm characteristics associated with innovation in over 19,000 firms across 47 developing economies. While existing finance literature on innovation is limited to large public firms in developed markets such as the United States, our database includes public and private firms, and small and medium-sized enterprises. We define innovation broadly to include introduction of new products and technologies, knowledge transfers, and new production processes. We find that access to external financing is associated with greater firm innovation. Further, having highly educated

Abstract:

We exploit a 2008 UK policy reform that increased the tax incentives for R&D in medium-sized enterprises relative to large ones, to overcome the endogeneity of exposure to such tax credits. We estimate a difference-in-difference design on the universe of corporation tax filings in the United Kingdom, combined with other datasets. We find a positive and significant impact of tax credits for R&D, implying a user-cost elasticity estimate of around −1.6. This magnitude implies around $1 in additional private R&D spending per dollar foregone in tax revenue. (JEL H25, H32, K34, L25, O32)

Economic development requires a complex mix of markets, financial resources, and expertise. Business development in Latin America has followed a tradition of natural resource exploitation, representing a classic example of the “old economy” in today’s global marketplace. However, in order to reap significant economic and social advancements it is imperative that this emerging region embrace a value-added approach requiring increasing knowledge resources. Today, the traditional drives of wealth creation—land, labor and capital—tend to be commodities. Ideas are the now the main currency driving
