Evaluation of the Effects of Financial Regulatory Reforms on Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise (SME) Financing

With the main elements of the G20 reforms agreed and implementation underway, an analysis of the effects of these reforms is becoming possible. To that end, the FSB developed a Framework for Post-Implementation Evaluation of the Effects of the G20 Financial Regulatory Reforms that will guide analyses of whether the reforms are achieving their intended outcomes, and help identify material unintended consequences that may have to be addressed, without compromising on the objectives of the reforms.
This evaluation examines the effects of financial regulatory reforms on the financing of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The motivation for this evaluation stems from the need to better understand the effects of the reforms on the financing of real economic activity and their contribution to the G20 objective of strong, sustainable, balanced and inclusive economic growth. The evaluation is part of a broader examination of the effects of the G20 regulatory reforms on financial intermediation.
