摘要：One of the regular OECD publications,the latest issue of which was recently published under the title Competitiveness in South East Europe: A Policy Outlook 2018,points to the key economic challenges and structural barriers on the path to strengthening competitiveness in six countries in the region,including Serbia. In this document,the OECD provides a thorough and comprehensive analysis and assessment of the economic performance and regional competitiveness based on qualitative and quantitative indicators,in particular highlighting the importance of developing the SME sector,the role of which in overall economic activity is greater than in the case of the European Union as a whole. Namely,in South Eastern Europe,SMEs account for 99.7% of all enterprises,employing 73.8% of the labour force in the region and generating 63.9% of value added. Despite their indisputable importance,however,the contribution of small and medium-sized enterprises to the overall economic development is limited by their limited access to finance. This is precisely where the OECD and other relevant international financial institutions see the potential for development – easier access to finance for SMEs would increase their contribution to boosting the competitiveness of the economy,job creation and inclusive development. Certain reforms have already been implemented in the countries of the region,but it is necessary to intensify these efforts to make financial resources available more easily and at better conditions,to all enterprises that need them. According to the OECD,the economies of South Eastern Europe are recording gradual progress in the development of the necessary policies along the way,but in order to achieve the ultimate goal it is necessary to coordinate the financial institutions,the governments of the countries concerned and the citizens,in order to point the lending services in the right direction and build a culture of responsible borrowing.
其他摘要：J edna od redovnih publikacija OECD-a,čije je najnovije izdanje nedavno objavljeno pod nazivom Konkurentnost u Jugoistočnoj Evropi: Pregled politika u 2018. godini (Competitiveness in South East Europe: A Policy Outlook 2018) ukazuje na ključne ekonomske izazove i strukturne prepreke na putu ka jačanju konkurentnosti u šest zemalja regiona,uključujući i Srbiju. Ovim dokumentom OECD pruža temeljnu i iscrpnu analizu i ocenu ekonomskog učinka i regionalne konkurentnosti na osnovu kvalitativnih i kvantitativnih indikatora,naročito ističući značaj razvoja sektora malih i srednjih preduzeća,čija je uloga u ukupnoj privrednoj aktivnosti veća nego što je to slučaj na nivou Evropske unije u celini. Naime,u Jugoistočnoj Evropi MSP čine 99,7% svih preduzeća,zapošljavaju 73,8% radne snage u regionu i generišu 63,9% dodate vrednosti. Uprkos nespornom značaju,međutim,doprinos malih i srednjih preduzeća ukupnom privrednom razvoju sputan je njihovim ograničenim pristupom izvorima finansiranja. Upravo u tome OECD i ostale relevantne međunarodne finansijske institucije vide potencijal za razvoj - olakšanim pristupom finansiranju za MSP povećao bi se njihov doprinos jačanju konkurentnosti privrede,kreiranju radnih mesta i inkluzivnom razvoju. Izvesne reforme već su sprovedene u zemljama regiona,ali je neophodno intenzivirati napore kako bi finansijska sredstva bila lakše i pod boljim uslovima raspoloživa svim preduzećima kojima su potrebna. Prema oceni OECD-a,ekonomije Jugoistočne Evrope beleže postepeni napredak u razvijanju neophodnih politika na tom putu,ali je za ostvarenje krajnjeg cilja neophodna koordinacija između finansijskih institucija,vlada dotičnih zemalja kao i građana kako bi se kreditne usluge usmerile na pravi način,te izgradila kultura odgovornog pozajmljivanja.
