FOREWORD
Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) obtain valuable information from various sources and in varied forms. While databases and information materials have already been developed by government agencies, business organizations, and the academe these may not be readily obtainable. There could be several reasons for the inaccessibility of these information, one of which is the lack of a document that will help MSMEs, researchers as well as policymakers find these information. This Catalog of Information Materials for MSMEs hopes to provide entrepreneurs, researchers, and policy-makers have a compendium of information materials that may address their various needs. The information materials are presented according to their use: start-up tools, marketing, technology/production, human resource, finance, studies, and information services. Relevant websites are also listed.

Assessment of Existing Databases and Information Needs of Small and Medium Enterprises This paper studies the information needs of SMEs, assesses the accessibility and responsiveness of existing databases, and recommends measures for improving databases and other information sources on SMEs. Three surveys were conducted quantitative survey among 330 SMEs in the 10 selected urban areas and 11 industries (user survey), qualitative survey among SMEs through focus group discussions in three survey areas (Metro Manila, Cebu City, and Davao City),and quantitative survey among 66 selected information providers. A desk research was also conducted to get an update and summary on the status of SME operations in the Philippines. The research included a review that identified available studies done on SMEs, evaluation and analysis of the NSO database of SMEs, and organizing this database to be useful in the analysis of survey data. Forty-seven (47) information items were pre-identified, categorized, and ranked accordingly as follows: (1) Marketing, (2) Production, (3) Human Resource, (4) Finance, and, (5) Economic. Based on the findings, companies in the 11 industries require such information items more than 400,000 times a year. Respondents also disclose that close to one-third of their information needs (30%) are not available. A hierarchical cluster analysis was done on respondents evaluation of the importance of the 47 items and the top 5 information items were: investment options, training/seminars, labor laws, sources of technology, and supplier of similar products. The result of the demand-analysis shows that information providers tend to focus more on providing information on finance, production and marketing and focus less on economic and human resource data.

Study on Strengthening of Small Business Associations (SBAs) This study was conducted to understand the peculiar growth inclinations and requirements of Philippine SBAs. It uses two levels of analysis applying a main and a secondary framework. The studys main framework depicts the interdependent relationship of the small businesses and SBAs, specially the link between their organizational performance. The secondary framework is a model on organizational efficiency. The study was conducted through a survey of 35 SBAs to gauge their strengths and weaknesses as well as their institutional objectives and capabilities. The study enumerates the following findings: There is marked slowdown in the business operations of the members due to the regional crisis, general slowdown in the industry, and prohibitive business environment. SBAs provide services that guide, develop, and promote the interest of its small business members. These services include industry and trade information, representation to government, training programs, networking services, exhibits, business matching, among others. The study confirms that the areas that need to be addressed are: a. establishment and development of SBAs organizational capabilities b. establishment and development of SBAs partners, links, allies, and a catalyst c. review of policies/ordinances affecting the small businesses and consequently SBAs d. financial, technological and organizational development of SBAs e. consultative meetings/dialogues between SBAs and the government

Lending and Borrowing Patterns This paper studies the lending patterns, associated constraints, and hindering factors of the various credit programs for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) chanelled through banks, NGOs, projects, etc., with special focus on the Entrepreneur Support Project (ESP) MSME beneficiaries. The objectives of this study are to identify gaps in the provision of financial assistance to MSMEs which the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) will have to act upon; and to propose recommendations to improve access to credit of MSMEs. This study involves the survey of MSMEs in six selected regions, two each from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Three provinces comprised the survey areas in each region. Regions and provinces where the ESP is being undertaken were included. The assessment of the impact of the mandatory allocation to MSMEs and determination of the issues associated with its enforcement were made based on quantitative data on compliance gathered from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), a review of BSP circulars on mandatory allocation and related studies, and survey findings. The survey findings of this study reveal an increasing and encouraging trend in MSME lending by the banking system and other formal credit sources. Several factors may have contributed to this trend, particularly: the mandatory allocation to MSMEs; the availability of rediscounting facilities from GFIs and non-bank financial institutions; increasing business relationships between banks and MSMEs, initially starting from deposits; and the rapid economic growth experienced by the country in recent years.

State of the Sector Report on: 1. Philippine Processed Mango 2. Philippine Furniture 3. Philippine Houseware 4. Philippine Holiday Decors 5. Philippine Footwear 6. Processed Costume Jewelry This series of reports is published by Pearl2 Project for 2004. Pearl2, a project funded by the Canadian International Development Agency, is a five-year initiative (20022007) designed to support the development of small and medium enterprises throughout the Philippines. It aims to help create meaningful jobs for both men and women through the strengthening of Business Support Organizations (BSOs) and Investment Promotion Agencies (IPAs). The Pearl2 Project, in coordination with the Department of Trade and Industry, has identified industries for program assistance under the Projects Sectoral Enhancement component. Hence, studies were undertaken to determine how the Project can effectively assist the following industries: Processed Mango - A major issue of this industry is the lack of good-quality mangoes at reasonable prices. Processors can be aggressive in their campaign to promote Philippine mango, but they are hampered by the inability to produce the necessary volumes if prices of fresh mangoes remain high and quality of produce is poor. Furniture In the Philippines, this industry is still labor-intensive and predominantly manual. Workers skills and technical knowledge need to be improved. The high cost of appropriate materials and machinery is one reason for low productivity. Local manufacturers also complain of sluggish product design development and the lack of related information. Houseware The industrys main concerns cover their inbound logistics and operation activities. Suppliers of raw materials are normally micro or home-based

businesses not duly registered with formal setup. This makes it hard to document the supply base so there is no suppliers database that manufacturers can access. Quality of materials supplied by these enterprises is highly variable and there is lack of appropriate technology and storage facilities in materials handling. Holiday Decors The decline in market performance of the industry reflects a number of issues that the sector has to address. Most of these lie in the inbound logistics and operations part of the sectors value chain. Due to its heavy use of local raw materials, the industry remains sensitive to the quality and availability of raw materials provided by suppliers due to lack of adequate technical knowledge and facilities. The quality of subcontractors work also fluctuates, as these are usually home-based family operations with insufficient equipment or quality control systems. Footwear In the footwear value chain, the sourcing of raw materials is a major bottleneck as local leather continues to be scarce. While leather quality has improved for the past three years, the volume required by the footwear industry remains unfilled. Other production-related problems include a lack of skilled workers, use of outdated technology, and low worker productivity and efficiency. Costume Jewelry In the inbound logistics part of the industrys value chain, the lack of available raw materials at low cost is among the sectors problems. In addition, there are also concerns regarding the reliability of subcontractors work since most of these are small, informal setups with limited capital, skills, and access to technology.

Analysis of the Structure of the Philippine Retail Food Industry Larry N. Digal This paper examines the structure of the retail food industry and analyzes the demand and supply factors and government policies affecting the industry.

Thus, there is a need to empirically test these allegations.

Utilization, Collection and Trade of Tropical Non-Wood Forest Products in the Philippines Resource survey and inventory of important nonwood forest products in selected provinces of the Philippines, viz, Palawan, Western Samar, Quezon, Surigao del Sur, Aurora, and Nueva Ecija were conducted by systemic sampling using a 1-ha plot replicated depending on the extent of growth and density of the subject plant species like rattan, bamboo, erect palms, pandan, and given forest vines in a given locality. Patterns in natural regeneration were assessed through field observation of the species mature individuals as well as young wildings or regenerants. Most of the species were fairly to moderately available in the study sites covered based on density and volume tallied and were capable of regenerating by seeds or rhizomes and suckers as in the case of bamboo and pandan. Many of the forest vine treated in this particular study, however, were rare and could be fast depleting. Under natural condition, availability of material resource probably depends on intensity or rate at which the species are cut or harvested and its ability to reproduce or regenerate new individuals. Trends in resource utilization and natural regeneration and their implications on sustainability were presented and discussed.

Economic Policy Reforms Going for Growth This publication, published in 2005 for the first time, is an annual periodical intended as a complement to the OECD Economic Outlook and OECD Economic Surveys. Last year's edition (Going for Growth 2005) identified structural policy priorities to enhance GDP per capita for all member countries, on the basis of cross-country comparisons of policy settings. Going for Growth 2006 provides an overview of the progress achieved by member countries in taking measures consistent with the priorities identified in the 2005 edition. It also extends the scope of performance and policy indicators to the area of innovation. Across the OECD, governments are seeking to undertake structural reforms to strengthen their economic growth. Going for Growth 2006 takes stock of the progress made in implementing policy reforms to improve labour productivity and utilization that were identified as priorities in the 2005 edition. It also provides comparative indicators covering structural policy areas such as labor markets, education and product market regulation. Graphs and tables in this publication include StatLinks, URLs which provide the reader with Excel spreadsheets of individual graphs and tables. A special feature of Going for Growth 2006 is the focus on innovation, which is a key driver of economic growth. It provides comparative indicators on performance and relevant policies in this area, and country-specific policy recommendations for each OECD country to improve innovation performance. This issue contains two analytical chapters covering regulation of financial systems and economic growth and alternatives to GDP as a measure of well-being.

Doing Business in 2004: Understanding Regulation Doing Business in 2005: Removing Obstacles to Growth Doing Business in 2006: Creating Jobs

Description

Doing Business in 2004 provides both qualitative and quantitative information on the business climate in over 130 countries. Doing Business constructs a new set of indicators on the regulatory environment for private sector development and provides a collection of informative case studies of real-life experiences. It covers the fundamental aspects of a business cycle, from starting a business to bankruptcy. Topics include access to credit, bankruptcy, entry regulations, contract enforcement, and labor regulations. Doing Business in 2005 is the second in a series of annual reports investigating the scope and manner of regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it. It updates the five main topics presented in the previous report (Doing Business in 2004): starting a business, hiring and firing workers, enforcing contracts, getting credit and closing a business. Doing Business in 2005 adds another two sets of topics: registering property and protecting investors. The indicators are used to analyze economic and social outcomes, such as productivity, investment, informality, corruption, unemployment, and poverty, and identify what reforms have worked, where and why. Doing Business in 2006 is the third in a series of annual reports investigating regulations that ease doing business and those that constraint it. This edition focuses on job creation. New quantitative indicators on business regulations and their enforcement can be compared across 155 countries on job creation. New quantitative indicators on business regulations and their enforcement can be compared across 155 countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and over time.

Between Profits and Fairness: Quality and Equitable Services for SMEs Gerry Hofstede, Grupo Intercambio, Peru Balancing economic and social objectives represents a big challenge in the field of small and microenterprise (SME) promotion. How best to pursue both profitable and equitable services, especially for the poorer segments of SMEs, is a difficult question that many microfinance institutions (MFIs) and business development services (BDS) providers grapple with. Similarly, assessing the performance of SME support services in terms of economic and social results are relevant issues to be addressed. One of the most pressing social equity issues of our time concerns gender equality. This paper focuses on the performance of SME support entities and highlights how they address gender equality and women's empowerment. We will look at what instruments and intervention strategies can realistically and successfully be implemented in the framework of SME support, with a view to furthering both economic as well as the social objectives of gender equality. The paper draws on 98 case studies of BDS providers and MFIs that competed in the Gender Best Practices Contests organized by INTERCAMBIO between 2000 and 2002 in the Andean Region and Central America. We will discuss the main gender best practices that were identified based on these contest experiences (For the complete text, kindly refer to the respective publication: Hofstede, G., Contreras, J., Mayta, L,: January 2003. Between Profits and Fairness, Quality and Equitable Services for SMEs in Latin America, Grupo Intercambio, Lima, Peru) which include conceptual elements for a framework on measuring the performance of social equity and economic objectives in the context of SME support. The paper seeks to contribute to current debates on impact-related issues of quality, equality, sustainability, and fairness in the delivery of business services to SMEs.
