Springer Verlag, Singapore Reforming State-Owned Enterprises in Asia:
Book SynopsisThis book analyzes state-owned enterprises (SOEs), which are still significant players in many Asian economies. They provide essential public services, build and operate key infrastructure, and are often reservoirs of public employment. Their characteristics and inherent competitive advantages as publicly owned enterprises allow them to play these critical roles. Their weaknesses in governance and inefficiencies in incentive structures, however, also often lead to poor performance. SOEs must be efficient, transparent, and accountable to level the playing field for private companies, secure the growth of a vibrant private sector, and achieve sustained and inclusive economic growth. This book analyzes the reform of SOEs in Asia, the results of which are mixed. The volume concludes that some key conditions generally need to be met for SOE reforms to be successful: national bureaucracies must have the capacity to implement the reforms, and adverse impacts on international trade and investment must be avoided.Table of ContentsSection 1: Corporate Governance, Strategy and the Legal framework Chapter 1: Strategy, Independence, and Governance of State-owned Enterprises in Asia Henrique Schneider Chapter 2: Enhancing the Transparency and Accountability of State-Owned Enterprises Chung-a Park and Hans Christiansen Chapter 3: Regulatory Frameworks for Reforms of State-Owned Enterprises in Thailand and Malaysia Pornchai Wisuttisak and Nasarudin Bin Abdul Rahman Chapter 4: Reforming State-owned Enterprises in Asia: Lessons from Competition Law and Policy in India Vijay Kumar Singh Chapter 5: State-owned Enterprises in Uzbekistan: Taking Stock and Some Reform Priorities Umidjon Abdullaev Section 2: Privatization: Challenges and Solutions Chapter 6: The Effects of Privatization and Corporate Governance of SOEs in Transition Economy: Case of Kazakhstan Keun Jung Lee Chapter 7: The Privatization of Japan Railway and Japan Post: Why, How, and Now Chul Ju Kim and Michael C.

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Investment In Startups And Small Business
Book SynopsisSuccessful startups and small businesses can play a significant role in economic growth and job creation. They also contribute to economic dynamism by spurring innovation and injecting competition. Startups are known to introduce new products and services that can create new value in the economy. It is notable that most startups exit within their first ten years, and most surviving young businesses do not grow but remain small. Startups and small businesses face several obstacles to their development. Accessing capital is a crucial constraint on their growth. Most startups and small businesses have difficulties getting the funds they need because of their lack of a performance track record and lack of collateral, making it difficult for lenders or investors to assess their risk. Besides, they are in the early stages of development and face a very high possibility of failure, which significantly raises financing and investment risk.Investment in Startups and Small Business Financing provides 12 thematic and case studies on new methods for bringing private investment (loans or equity) to startups and easing small businesses' access to finance (debt and capital). The contributors are senior-level policy experts and researchers from governments, think tanks, academia, and international organizations. The chapters are authored in a policy-oriented way to be understandable for the readers with a different background. This book is a precious source for the governments for adopting the right policies to develop small businesses and startups and valuable for the researchers in economics, business, and finance.
