"Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on their own account for around 99% of all businesses and provide over 100Â million jobs in the European Union. Their role in economic growth, social cohesion and job creation is therefore vital.
The Small Business Act (SBA) is based on key principles, such as access to finance, access to markets and better regulation. However, it is undeniable that SMEs continue to struggle against a series of problems, like the difficulty of expanding their activities, problems accessing markets, or the innumerable difficulties in obtaining financing.
As such, I welcome the conclusions of the Commission’s review, and I am very pleased to see the new proposals aiming to improve access to finance and markets, and to move forward with the process of cutting red tape."@en1
