Abstract

This book studies the context for private sector development (PSD) including micro, small and medium enterprises (SME), the PSD challenges and the relevant policy, institutional and research capacity needs in 12 MENA countries: Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, the West Bank & Gaza, and Yemen. It assesses comparative performance against a number of indicators, and focuses on the special role of SMEs and entrepreneurial activity. It concludes with a framework for guiding a comprehensive set of policies and strategies to unleash the potential of entrepreneurship as a platform for future private sector growth.
