Full Description
This cutting-edge book explores the impact of pandemic shocks and other crises on businesses. Focusing on growing threats to business resilience, it offers innovative strategies to manage financial change and reposition small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurs for success.
The expert team of contributors provide multi-dimensional perspectives on how to support businesses to access finance. Focusing on SMEs, the book analyses the diverse coping strategies adopted by firms to resolve entrepreneurial issues. Chapters evaluate the impact of crises on SMEs' finances; the latest developments in debt, equity and asset-based finance; and recent global inflationary pressures. Ultimately, the book argues that SME resilience is central to a strong economy, and swift action from governments, financial institutions, and other stakeholders is needed to curb the liquidity trap faced by businesses.
Tackling theoretical, practical and policy issues, this book will be a useful resource for students and researchers of entrepreneurship, financial regulation and the economics of innovation. It will also be an invaluable guide for policymakers and practitioners seeking to boost SME resilience and control economic shocks.
