Abstract:
Using the 1996-2001 Chilean CASEN Panel Survey, this paper analyzes the impact on income of the switch from salaried employment to entrepreneurship (self-employment and leadership of micro-enterprises). By means of a difference-in-differences non-parametric matching estimator the paper alleviates problems of selection bias (on observable and unobservable traits) and creates the appropriate counterfactuals of interest. The results indicate that the income gains associated with the switch from salaried employment to entrepreneurship are positive, statistically significant and financially substan

Abstract:
This paper identifies the main characteristics of a subset of Chilean firms that has the potential to positively impact the economy through employment generation. The study also verifies whether their traits systematically differ from those of other firms. Based on a mean comparison exercise, the results show that this particular business population is rather heterogeneous in nature and in terms of the impact it has over the economy at least in terms of job creation. The entrepreneurs within this subset exhibit some varying traits, with education being the most important. Overall, this paper d

Abstract:
This case study explores the strategies that have helped young businesses emerge and enabled hundreds of entrepreneurs to create their own ventures by leveraging digital technology and the strength and richness of a community united under the same roof. Is there a "Banj recipe"? Can it be replicated in other countries? Can it be applied to other sectors? The story began modestly under the leadership of founder Marc Alain Boucicault, a social entrepreneur who considers himself an ecosystem builder. His experience in the international development sector catalyzed the energy of a group of motivat

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the impact of the Strengthening Women Entrepreneurship in Peru (SWEP) program. SWEP trained female micro entrepreneurs in business management practices (such as accounting and marketing). The training, which was provided in 4- to 5-hour sessions, used soap operas and practical exercises specifically designed for the program. A field experiment was conducted among a group of micro entrepreneurs based in two Peruvian cities (Lima and Piura) to investigate whether SWEP had a positive impact on its beneficiaries. The results show that the program positively affected the adoptio

Abstract:
Effective development of the domestic economy is possible only on condition of mandatory formation of a qualitatively new level of regulation of economic relations in the business environment. By its nature, entrepreneurship is an activity associated with a high level of risk and innovation, aimed at ensuring the interests of both an individual entrepreneur and an enterprise, and society. The purpose of the study, the results of which are presented in this article, is to study theoretical and methodological approaches to managing financial risks of an enterprise in modern dynamically changing

Abstract:
Financiers in early-stage entrepreneurial finance are known for their “spray-and-pray” approach, where they fund multiple start-ups expecting profits on a few to compensate losses on a lot of failed ones. We develop a theoretical framework in which financiers compete to fund entrepreneurs in an environment featuring risk, adverse selection, and limited liability. Financiers use steep payoff schedules to screen entrepreneurs, but limited liability implies they can only do so by giving more to all entrepreneurs. In equilibrium, competition for the best entrepreneurs forces intermediaries to offe
