Here we discuss two main constraints faced by MSMEs following the crisis, namely limited access to finance and taxation, and skills development, and provide examples of recovery measures that have been put in place to address them. During the crisis, access to finance was tightened even more for small-sized businesses in many regions, and developing Asia was no exception. Many governments responded by loosening monetary policy and providing stimulus through fiscal policies and tax reductions, in order to help enterprises maintain working capital and retain workers. Policy measures have been put in place to assist MSMEs access credit through loans for small sized businesses. Credit guarantees and fund trusts for micro and small enterprises have also been set up, as well as duty reductions and the elimination of tax refunds.
