The development of the small and medium enterprise sector is deemed crucial for economic growth and poverty alleviation. Such firms are often though to be at a disadvantage when compared with larger enterprises, but the reverse can apply, for example in the more flexible approach of the smaller firm. This paper draws on a private sector survey in 80 countries examining whether business obstacles are related to firm size. It finds a bias against small firms, which experience significantly greater problems than large firms with financing, taxes and regulations, inflation, corruption and street crime. These problems should be the prime. | DISCUSSION PAPER Firm Size and the Business Environment Worldwide Survey Results Mirjam Schiffer Beatrice Weder INTERNATIONAL FINANCE CORPORATION IFC Discussion Papers No. 1 Private Business in Developing Countries Improved Prospects.
