Improving Asia-Pacific SMEs’ Policies against the Background of Global Value Chains——A Comparison with EU

亚太地区的中小企业数量众多,在经济增长、创造就业、出口等方面发挥着重要作用。在区域一体化过程中,中小企业因自身特点在外部冲击下更显脆弱性,因此亚太区域构架的代表亚太经合组织(APEC)和东盟都有关于中小企业的合作政策。当前全球价值链的发展,使得中小企业在有更多机会融入全球生产体系的同时,也面临更多挑战。如何进一步完善亚太地区的中小企业合作政策成为一个迫切的问题。作为区域一体化的典范,欧盟在长期发展过程中形成了较为完善的中小企业政策。与欧盟相比,亚太地区的中小企业政策在制度化水平、指导原则、政策内容、评价机制和支持环境上都有很大差距。通过与欧盟的比较政策分析,可以为完善亚太地区中小企业政策提供有价值和启示的建议。

However, they are more vulnerable in the process of regional integration. Therefore, APEC and ASEAN, each of them has developed a system of policies on SMEs. SMEs witness opportunities to participate in global value chains (GVCs) while they encounter difficulties and challenges. It is impending to improve Asia-Pacific SMEs’ policies. As a stereotype, EU has developed sound SMEs’ policies. Compared with EU, SMEs’ policies in the Asia-Pacific region are much different in terms of the institutional level, guidelines, policy contents, evaluation mechanisms and the supporting environment. It is important and beneficial for improving SMEs’ policies in the Asia-Pacific region through such a comparative analysis.
