| description |
In recent years, many emerging market
countries have developed or are in the process of developing
SME Exchanges to provide financing to SMEs, but few have
succeeded. This paper aims to help stock exchanges and
policy makers think through the key questions to be
addressed to determine if, when, how and for whom to develop
an SME Exchange in emerging market countries. It takes stock
of some of the actions that exchanges can take to reduce
issuance costs, in time and money for SMEs, without
compromising the prudential needs of investors. The paper
draws on the experience of seven SME Exchanges and the World
Federation of Exchanges that participated in a workshop
organized and led by the WBG to discuss these and other
questions. It does not recommend a specific model to follow
and does not address specific context issues, however the
analysis suggests approaches that are widespread and/or
could be beneficial to consider such as (1) focus on SMEs
with a sizeable growth rate, (2) have the SME exchange
legally related to the main board, (3) do not reduce
disclosure content to reduce costs, (4) allow private
placements, (5) have well regulated advisors to vet issuers
and provide comfort to investors about the quality of the
issue, (6) have outreach, public awareness campaign and
training for SMEs, (7) consider tax incentives for
investors. The report is the first in a series on this
topic, and subsequent reports will address and expand on
related and broader issues. |
