However, the ability of SMEs to grow depends highly on their potential to invest in restructuring, innovation and qualification. Al

Against this background the consistently repeated complaint of SMEs about their problems regarding access to finance is a highly relevant constraint that endangers the economic recovery of Europe. Changes in the finance sector infl

Recent and ongoing developments in the banking sector add to the concerns of SMEs and will further endanger their access to finance. The main changes in the banking sector which influence SME finance are: Globalization and inte

The changes in the finance sector affect the accessibility of SMEs to

Higher risk awareness in the credit sector, a stronger focus on profitability and the ongoing restructuring in the finance sector change the framework for SME finance and influence the accessibility of SMEs to finance. The most important changes are: In order to make the higher risk awaren

A European Code of Conduct between Banks and SMEs would have allowed at least more transparency in the relations between

14、Banks and SMEs and UEAPME regrets that the bank sector was not able to agree on such a commitment. Towards an encompassing policy approach to improve the access of Crafts, Trades and SMEs to finance All analyses show that credits and loans will stay the main source of finance for the SME sector in E

15、urope. Access to finance was always a main concern for SMEs, 3 but the recent developments in the finance sector worsen the situation even more. Shortage of finance is already a relevant factor, which hinders economic recovery in Europe. Many SMEs are not able to finance their needs for investment.

16、Therefore, UEAPME expects the new European Commission and the new European Parliament to strengthen their efforts to improve the framework conditions for SME finance. Europes Crafts, Trades and SMEs ask for an encompassing policy approach, which includes not only the conditions for SMEs access to le

From UEAPMEs point of view such an encompassing approach should be based on three guiding principles: Risk-sharing between private investors, financial institutes, SMEs and public sector； I

Based on these principles and against the background of the changing environment for SME finance, UEAPME proposes policy measures in the following areas: 1. New Capital

The final agreement

However, the new regulatory system wi

The new Capital Accord form the Basel Committee gives the financial market authorities and herewith the European Institutions, a lot of flexibility. In about 70
