摘要：AbstractSmall and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) are very important for economic development. If proper corporate governance strategies are implemented by SMEs, their growth opportunities are expected to increase. In order to understand the impact of proper corporate governance strategies of SMEs, public and non-public companies are compared. In this study, corporate governance scores for nine public and nine non-public SMEs are calculated. It is found that only three of the public SMEs and none of the non-public SMEs had adequate corporate governance score which is based on Capital Market Board of Turkey's corporate governance principles about stakeholders.
