  1. Update on work to Improve data on access to finance for entrepreneurship OECD Entrepreneurship Indicators Steering Group (EISG) meeting Istanbul, 25-26 June 2007 Eric Gonnard, Statistics Directorate, OECD

  2. OECD “Access to finance” works The EIP work on data on access to finance for entrepreneurship responds to four projects: 1. The ICE Project on Risk Capital 2. The WPSMEE Study on Financing High Growth and Innovative SMEs (HGSME) 3. The EC (joint DG-ENT and Eurostat) work on financing SMEs 4. The Entrepreneurship Indicators Project

  3. SME population target by project (date of issuance) • Entrepreneurship Indicators Project • (Preliminary measurement manual end 2007) • - All SMEs • Access to financing is one of the determinants for entrepreneurship (with education, R&D, taxation…) EC work on access to finance (mid-2010) - All SMEs - Debt and equity financing Risk Capital project (spring 2008) - SMEs seeking Equity finance - Equity financing • WPSMEE study • (2nd half 2008) • - Innovative, HG SME • Debt & Equity financing • >10 employees, >3y old

  5. 1. ICE risk capital project: overview • Investigate risk capital market with two main objectives: • overview of the risk capital market in each country; • better understand the financing gaps between supply and demand • Policy track handle by FORA: mapping of policy and policy's performance; • Data track handle by the OECD: glossary of definitions and assessment of data sources; • Result in spring 2008 in the “ICE Risk Capital policy and data handbook”.

  6. Risk capital Project: policy study • Pilot study done in the Netherlands in March 2007; • Mapping of policies and policies’ performance analysis based on the FORA Investment Policy Model; • Preliminary outputs: • Investors are concentrated on buy-out segment, lack of early stage segment skilled investors; • policy instruments should suit the market stage (kick-start, developing, re-vitalizing) • Pilot used as a template for other countries.

  7. Risk capital Project: data track objectives This data work will assist the policy evaluations in identifying precisely where policy interventions are required and assessing their effectiveness. • Collect and document existing definitions on risk capital and propose compromised definitions; • Identify and document sources of data on risk capital; • Propose a collection of comparable data on risk capital.

  8. Risk capital Project: data track status (1/2) • Inventory of the data sources and definitions collection largely completed • On the supply side from Venture Capital industry Informal investors and Governmental sources • On the demand side from SME surveys conducted • First outputs on the definitions: • differences exists but more related to wordings rather than substance, • need to redefine some key terms from a statistical point of view (e.g. start-up)

  9. Risk capital Project: data track status (2/2) • First outputs on the data sources: common practices but main differences reside in the dissemination: • level of details published; • updates in historical time series not documented; • concepts used : • valuation at book value or fair value • valuation when deals committed or paid in cash • reports based on “office” or “market” approach • other issues (data volatility in growth/drop periods, timing of the data collection,...).

The WPSMEE Study on Financing High Growth and Innovative SMEs • Study is a module of the 2007/08 program of work on High Growth SMEs, innovation, intellectual assets and value creation; • Objectives: improve the availability of comparable data on financing and contribute to policy development; • Method: use of various sources of data (Community Innovation Survey, BACH,..) and a policy questionnaire built on ICE’s model; • Results published in synthesis report.

  15. 3.The European institutions work on financing SMEs (1/2) • Eurostat, ECB, European Commission (DG ENTR and DG ECFIN) and the OECD met in may-07 with objectives to: - examine the interest of the diverse organizations present into “access to finance”; - set up an overall strategy on sharing statistics already existing; - assess the opportunities and constraints for a data collection

  16. 3.The European institutions work on financing SMEs (2/2) • On the demand side, identification of several target populations, and drafting of three indicators: • Percentage of external financing of young firms • Number of financing applications and reject rates • Cost of debt instruments • The usage and share of best practices of SME’s survey with other organizations in order to achieve international comparability; • Eurostat present the possibilities and constraints of conducting a new survey, three years will be necessary between this first meeting to the data dissemination.
