Overview
Small businesses are the life-blood of any economy. This is particularly pronounced in Southeast Asia, where they make up approximately 50% of GDP and 65% of employment. But despite contributing the majority of economic activity, there's still a big shortfall in the supports necessary to ensure they have maximum economic impact.
