This study is to provide the Government
of Chile with a review of the portfolio of small and medium
enterprise (SMEs) development programs and the institutions
that provide them, leading to recommendations to improve the
effectiveness of a streamlined portfolio. This emphasis is
important for economic reasons, given the sectors role in
employment, and the possibility of improving its integration
into the national economy and export-oriented production and
marketing chains. However, this analysis also identifies
areas where SMEs can more effectively leverage government
programs to become more productive, efficient, and
innovative. The analysis is based on interviews with key
policymakers, managers and other staff of the government
institutions responsible for most of the programs secondary
reports, and discussions with small business managers,
business association leaders, academicians and financial
intermediaries. The report is organized as follows: The
first chapter reviews the evolution of the macroeconomic and
business environment in Chile, and provides the theoretical
arguments upon which the governments intervention in favor
of SMEs has been based; second chapter examines the
characteristics of the SME sector, as well as key
determinants of SME productivity and growth; third chapter
describes the obstacles to SME development, such as
constraints to financial resources; fourth chapter
recommends a streamlined portfolio of private sector
assistance projects and provides an institutional analysis
of Production Development Corporation (Corporacion de
Fomento de la Produccion) (CORFO), Agricultural Development
Institute (Instituto de Desarrollo Agropecuario) (INDAP) and
Technical Cooperation Service of Chile (Servicio de
Cooperacion Tecnica de Chile) (SERCOTEC); fifth chapter
focuses on programs that promote innovation, technology and
networks, and finally sixth chapter offers strategic and
operational recommendations to improve the effectiveness of
the Governments investment in SME programs. |
