"Mr President, the figures tell us that 85 % of all new jobs are being created by SMEs – as the rapporteur said – but it should also be noted that one in every four SMEs fails to seize its single market potential and that one in every eight is not internationally active. What can we do about this? In the words of the rapporteur: reduce regulation and administrative burdens, increase cross-border trade, invest in human capital, promote Erasmus programmes for young entrepreneurs, skills, social dialogue – a very important issue for my group – but another very important element is access to funding; in this area, we still have much to do. We need to boost the public sector, Horizon 2020, the COSME programme and cohesion policies, but we also need to give SMEs access to the market, Commissioner, to ensure that SMEs have access to credit, because at present they don’t. Credit needs to flow to where the economy is most buoyant. Therefore, we would advocate, as a basic criterion, that SMEs be given access to credit to enable them to develop their activity."@en1
