Access to finance improves post-entry performance of start-ups and industries which are more dependent on external finance grow relatively faster in countries with more developed financial markets, thanks to enhanced information sharing and risk management, and a better allocation of resources to profitable investment projects<br><br> In the presence of information asymmetries鈥攁nd due to the particular characteristics of small and medium enterprises鈥擲MEs face more difficulties in gaining access to finance than larger firms. Research on the determinants of access to finance indicates that size is one of the main factors affecting the probability that firms will face financial constraints, particularly in developing economies. SMEs also tend to rely more on trade credit and informal sources (such as money lenders, friends and relatives) to finance their working capital and investments. </p> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-6"> <a href="becomeclient.php" class="btn btn-flat text-white btn-colored btn-theme-colored2 mt-15">Become A Client</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-4"> <div class="sidebar sidebar-left mt-sm-30 ml-40"> <div class="widget"> <h4 class="widget-title line-bottom">For <span class="text-theme-colored2">Start_up</span> Companies</h4> <div class="services-list"> <ul class="list list-border"> <a href="service_details.php?service=MQ==" style="color: white;"> <li > Business Opportunity Identification </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=Mg==" style="color: white;"> <li class='active'> Facilitation of Access to Credit and Finance </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=Mw==" style="color: white;"> <li > Business Plan Preparation </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=NA==" style="color: white;"> <li > Project Start Up Support </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTc=" style="color: white;"> <li > Client Registration (BRC) </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTg=" style="color: white;"> <li > Rental Services </li> </a> </div> </div> <div class="widget"> <h4 class="widget-title line-bottom">For <span class="text-theme-colored2">Existing</span> Companies</h4> <div class="services-list"> <ul class="list list-border"> <a href="service_details.php?service=NQ==" style="color: white;"> <li > Business Health Check & Diagnostics </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=Ng==" style="color: white;"> <li > Consultancy & Advisory Services </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=Nw==" style="color: white;"> <li > Functional Management Training </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=OQ==" style="color: white;"> <li > Business Counselling & Mentorship </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTE=" style="color: white;"> <li > Training (Entrepreneurship & Management) </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTM=" style="color: white;"> <li > TIN (New Service) </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTU=" style="color: white;"> <li > New Business Registration (RGD) </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTY=" style="color: white;"> <li > Renewal of Business Certificates </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MTk=" style="color: white;"> <li > Conference Room Rental </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MjA=" style="color: white;"> <li > Advertising Services </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MjE=" style="color: white;"> <li > Accountancy Services </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MjI=" style="color: white;"> <li > Agency Representation </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MjM=" style="color: white;"> <li > IT Services </li> </a> <a href="service_details.php?service=MjQ=" style="color: white;"> <li > Others </li> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <!-- Footer --> <footer id="footer" class="footer" data-bg-img="./controllers/images/footer-bg.png" data-bg-color="#152029" style="background-color: #152029;
