Small enterprises not only need credit they also need many other
services: training, advice, marketing, supplies, premises,
accountancy, materials, technology and many others. Without them,
credit alone may do no more than add the burden of debt to all the
other problems entrepreneurs have to face. Governments and foreign
donors have traditionally responded to these needs by trying to
provide the services themselves. Despite or because of heavy
subsidies, these services have been inadequate and of poor quality,
and their main effect has been to 'crowd out' potentially more
effective private suppliers. But policy makers are now learning
that entrepreneurs are willing to pay the market price for quality
services, and that small businesses in the private sector are the
best source of services for other small businesses. The goal is to
make markets work in business services as well as in other
products. Business Development Services for Small Enterprise shows
how to make markets really work, how to reduce dependence on donor
agencies and illustrates critical issues, new findings and radical
changes with a wealth of wide-ranging material. This is a key title
for all B.D.S. practitioners.
