Book Description
Globalized production networks, or global value chains, provide an opportunity for SMEs to upscale their business models and to grow across borders. This process can enhance SME competitiveness, create more jobs, and promote inclusive growth in developing Asia. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the ADB Institute (ADBI) recognize the importance of integrating SMEs into global value chains. To provide pathways for such integration, this study examines ways of encouraging participation in value chains, and explores policy solutions to address the financial and nonfinancial barriers faced by these enterprises.

Book Description
Globalization is regarded as one of the most major factors that led to rapid global economic growth. This has led to the emergence of new technologies and lowered the transferring costs have allowed corporations to expand their operations to nations that have led to world production chains which are known as the global value chains. However, some groups of individuals or firms, or countries have not been able to take the benefits of globalization and small and medium-sized enterprises are one such group. small and medium-sized enterprises have been identified as the backbone of an economy, but several constraints have blocked the global value chains participation by small and medium-sized enterprises especially in developing countries. Thus, this study attempted to investigate the impact of global value chains on the performances of small and medium-sized enterprises in the developing countries of the Asian Region. The study was conducted based on the qualitative research design with the support of secondary data. Five (5) research articles representing four different countries namely; Indonesia, Thailand, Vet Nam, and Sri Lanka have been selected based on the purposive sampling technique. The gathered data has been analyzed qualitatively by using descriptive analysis. Accordingly, the study concluded that there are several constraints with SMEs in global value chains participation, especially in developing countries. But if they can overcome those constraints and able to participate in global value chains, they can be able to increase the performances of the small and medium-sized enterprises and able to achieve economic development.

Book Description
The paper focuses on the impact of global value chains on the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises. This review was conducted as a journal paper by analysing qualitative data derived from the five research papers selected. In the research papers, they have focused on econometric and descriptive analyses with reference to the selected and reviewed articles. This review was able to detect that SMEs that are aligned with GVCs are showing a good profit than those that are not. Besides that direct impact of GVCs, the study on the other hand found that relationship with GVCs indirectly boosts the performance of SMEs by the improvement of sales revenue and tasks related to research and development of SMEs. Also, elements like ensuring the quality of products, the availability of skilled labour, better access to finance, access to better technologies, the ability to produce at low cost, can be recommended to increase the potential to link SMEs with GVCs. The review findings suggest the government, and other organizations for encouraging SMEs to participate in GVCs by letting them to grow as internationally competitive entrepreneurs.

Book Description
Global value chains (GVCs) powered the surge of international trade after 1990 and now account for almost half of all trade. This shift enabled an unprecedented economic convergence: poor countries grew rapidly and began to catch up with richer countries. Since the 2008 global financial crisis, however, the growth of trade has been sluggish and the expansion of GVCs has stalled. Meanwhile, serious threats have emerged to the model of trade-led growth. New technologies could draw production closer to the consumer and reduce the demand for labor. And trade conflicts among large countries could lead to a retrenchment or a segmentation of GVCs. World Development Report 2020: Trading for Development in the Age of Global Value Chains examines whether there is still a path to development through GVCs and trade. It concludes that technological change is, at this stage, more a boon than a curse. GVCs can continue to boost growth, create better jobs, and reduce poverty provided that developing countries implement deeper reforms to promote GVC participation; industrial countries pursue open, predictable policies; and all countries revive multilateral cooperation.

Book Description
Regional economic engagement within South Asia may gain increasing importance owing to several factors that are currently in play, including strategies to diversify global value chains and locate such value chains nearer home. These developments offer South Asia a chance to enhance its low levels of regional economic engagement and capitalize on significant unrealized development opportunities. This report shows that examining intraregional investment and knowledge connectivity enhances our understanding of the low levels of intraregional trade and limited regional value chains in South Asia. Creating a new and unique data set for South Asian investment, it provides a detailed and nuanced understanding of the drivers of outward investment, both regional and global, for South Asian firms. “Regional Investment Pioneers in South Asia†? provides key considerations for policy makers in South Asia, which remain particularly relevant in the aftermath of the pandemic. First, it makes a case for regulatory relaxation of outward FDI regimes, based on new micro foundations, grounded in value chains. Second, it spells out details of smart inward FDI promotion techniques and investment facilitation. Third, it identifies distinct cross-border information-enhancing and network development activities. Fourth, it suggests that digital connectivity and continued interventions in reducing trade costs are warranted to increase investment as well as trade flows. There is particular scope to build on the digitalization initiatives in trade and investment facilitation taken during the pandemic. “Regional Investment Pioneers in South Asia†? follows on, and is complementary to, the earlier World Bank report, “A Glass Half Full: the Promise of Regional Trade in South Asia.†?
