Dear Sir/Madam,

I am pleased to inform you that an ESCAP publication entitled "Policy Guidebook for SME Development in Asia and the Pacific" is now available online at http://www.unescap.org/tid/publication/indpub2621.asp.

This publication was developed based on the comprehensive review of the SME policies and programmes in Asia and the Pacific, particularly covering the following issues:

(a)	Enabling business environment
(b)	Entrepreneurship
(c)	Financing
(d)	Business development services
(e) 	Innovation and technology
(f)	Market access.

This publication should provide the basis for deliberations on policy formulation for SME development in the region, developing and refining the institutional framework based on intercountry experiences.  The book may also serve as a training manual for entrepreneurs, educators and business associations, such as chambers of commerce and industry, for building up the capacity of SMEs.

If you wish to receive a hard copy of the publication, please contact:
