Book excerpt: This paper investigates the financial characteristics of new small firms. The analysis develops a representative, small-firm financial profile, and evaluates the extent to which the proportionate use of different instruments and sources is correlated with industry-level and firm-specific characteristics. Multivariate methods are then used to examine relationships between financial structure, Ramp;D-intensity and innovation. Our results suggest that relationships between knowledge-intensity and capital structure are bi-directional. After controlling for a range of industry- and firm-level covariates, firms that devote a higher percentage of their investment expenditure to Ramp;D also exhibit less debt-intensive structures. Conversely, debt-intensive structures also act to constrain investments in Ramp;D. These relationships, however, depend upon the type of debt in the asset mix. It is the share of long-term debt to total assets that is negatively related to investments in knowledge.

Book Synopsis Firm Innovation in Emerging Markets by : Meghana Ayyagari
Download or read book Firm Innovation in Emerging Markets written by Meghana Ayyagari and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors investigate the determinants of firm innovation in over 19,000 firms across 47 developing economies. They define the innovation process broadly, to include not only core innovation such as the introduction of new products and new technologies, but also other types of activities that promote knowledge transfers and adapt production processes. The authors find that more innovative firms are large exporting firms characterized by private ownership, highly educated managers with mid-level managerial experience, and access to external finance. In contrast, firms that do not innovate much are typically state-owned firms without foreign competitors. The identity of the controlling shareholder seems to be particularly important for core innovation, with those private firms whose controlling shareholder is a financial institution being the least innovative. While the use of external finance is associated with greater innovation by all private firms, it does not make state-owned firms more innovative. Financing from foreign banks is associated with higher levels of innovation compared with financing from domestic banks.

Book Synopsis The Financing of R&D and Innovation by : Bronwyn H. Hall
Download or read book The Financing of R&D and Innovation written by Bronwyn H. Hall and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence on the "funding gap" for investment innovation is surveyed. The focus is on financial market reasons for underinvestment that exist even when externality-induced underinvestment is absent. We conclude that while small and new innovative firms experience high costs of capital that are only partly mitigated by the presence of venture capital, the evidence for high costs of R&D capital for large firms is mixed. Nevertheless, large established firms do appear to prefer internal funds for financing such investments and they manage their cash flow to ensure this. Evidence shows that there are limits to venture capital as a solution to the funding gap, especially in countries where public equity markets for VC exit are not highly developed. We conclude by suggesting areas for further research.
Book Synopsis The 19th International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management by : Ershi Qi

This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 1596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management is sponsored by the Chinese Industrial Engineering Institution, CMES, which is the only national-level academic society for Industrial Engineering. The conference is held annually as the major event in this arena. Being the largest and the most authoritative international academic conference held in China, it provides an academic platform for experts and entrepreneurs in the areas of international industrial engineering and management to exchange their research findings. Many experts in various fields from China and around the world gather together at the conference to review, exchange, summarize and promote their achievements in the fields of industrial engineering and engineering management. For example, some experts pay special attention to the current state of the application of related techniques in China as well as their future prospects, such as green product design, quality control and management, supply chain and logistics management to address the need for, amongst other things low-carbon, energy-saving and emission-reduction. They also offer opinions on the outlook for the development of related techniques. The proceedings offers impressive methods and concrete applications for experts from colleges and universities, research institutions and enterprises who are engaged in theoretical research into industrial engineering and engineering management and its applications. As all the papers are of great value from both an academic and a practical point of view, they also provide research data for international scholars who are investigating Chinese style enterprises and engineering management.

Book Synopsis Bank lending and entrepreneurial finance by :
Download or read book Bank lending and entrepreneurial finance written by and published by The Fraser Institute. This book was released on 2008 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: However, the reports also find that Canadian banks lag behind industry leaders in the two most important measures relating to entrepreneurial businesses: the amount of bank lending (in terms of the quantity of funds) and the terms by which that lending is provided. [...] An analysis of the structural influences suggests that environmental features, such as the scale of the economy, the size of the banks, and the degree of concentration of the banking system, cannot explain the differences in bank performance between Canada and other industrialized countries. [...] Bank loans and the funding of entrepreneurial business The importance of different sources of finance for entrepreneurial businesses is difficult to gauge directly because of the diversity of these businesses. [...] The Milken Institute bank performance measures The Banking and Financial Index (BF Index), a subcategory of the Capital Access Index that is important to this study, assesses the contribution of a country's financial institutions to entre- preneurial finance on the basis of the following banking performance measures: •. Claims on non-financial firms as a percentage of GDP; •. Bank assets as a perc [...] The breadth of the banking measures used by the BF Index means that the items included differ substantially in terms of their relevance to the contribution of a country to entrepreneurial finance.

Book Synopsis Uncertainty and the Employment Dynamics of Small and Large Businesses by : Vivek Ghosal
Download or read book Uncertainty and the Employment Dynamics of Small and Large Businesses written by Vivek Ghosal and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the impact of uncertainty on employment dynamics. Alternative measures of uncertainty are constructed based on the survey of professional forecasters, and regressionbased forecasting models for GDP growth, inflation, S&P500 stock price index, and fuel prices. Our results indicate that greater uncertainty has a negative impact on growth of employment, and the effects are primarily felt by the relatively smaller businesses; the impact on large businesses are generally non-existent or weaker. Our results suggest that to truly understand the effects of uncertainty on employment dynamics, we need to focus on the relatively smaller and entrepreneurial businesses. We discuss implications for the framing of economic policy.
Book Synopsis SME and Entrepreneurship Policy in Canada by : Collectif
Download or read book SME and Entrepreneurship Policy in Canada written by Collectif and published by OECD. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SMEs and entrepreneurs make an important contribution to the Canadian economy. SMEs account for 60% of total employment, and Canada performs very well across many measures of small business generation, growth and innovation. However, further increases in productivity in medium-sized firms, an increase in SME exports, a greater business start-up rate and an increased number of high-growth firms could bring substantial benefits for the national economy. This report identifies several areas where new policy approaches could help achieve these objectives. Framework conditions for small business could be improved in business taxation, public procurement, access to financing and the commercialisation of research. New and extended programmes could be introduced in domains including entrepreneurship education, management advice and consultancy, and workforce skills development. A major effort is recommended to prioritise women's entrepreneurship, including by supporting social enterprises, and federal support could be offered to support the exchange of information on best practice SME regulations and programmes among provinces and territories. All this could be brought together and co-ordinated through the umbrella of a national strategy and a lead agency for SME and entrepreneurship policy.

Book Synopsis Enterprise Size, Financing Patterns, and Credit Constraints in Brazil by : Anjali Kumar
Download or read book Enterprise Size, Financing Patterns, and Credit Constraints in Brazil written by Anjali Kumar and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Enterprise Size, Financing Patterns, and Credit Constraints in Brazil' investigates the importance of firm size with respect to accessing credit. The principal findings are that size strongly affects access to credit compared to firm performance, and other factors, such as management education, location or the industrial sector to which the firm belongs. Additional findings are that the impact of size on access to credit is greater for longer term loans and that public financial institutions are more likely to lend to large firms. Finally, financial access constraints may have a less significant differential impact across firms of different sizes than other constraints, though cost of finance as a constraint is very important.
