Developing world – Around 400 million SMEs, almost 50% are unserved or underserved and only 57 million (14%) out of 400 million have a loan or line of credit
Impact of moveable collateral
There is an expanding evidence base on the importance of collateral in credit markets, including recent work on impact of collateral reforms in developing countries. In many instances the research analyzes the overall importance of secured lending and does not distinguish between fixed and moveable collateral. A few studies, however, do look at the impact of moveable collateral on lending markets. Impact findings both from studies focused solely on moveable assets, and from those analyzing moveable and fixed collateral:
