dc.description.abstractThis study provides policymakers with a toolkit of best practices and measures to facilitate the participation of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in international trade. To this end, it presents the main findings of a review of the specialized literature on trade facilitation policies for MSMEs as well as a mapping of indicators that illustrate the degree of progress made by Latin American and Caribbean countries in implementing such policies. In addition, the study compiles and systematizes the main features of the identified policy toolkit and a checklist of trade facilitation policies for MSMEs that policymakers can use. The objective of the study is to contribute to the Americas Business Dialogue's goal of fostering private sector-led growth and development in the region. To this end, it seeks to provide policymakers with tools to foster inclusive growth of MSMEs and help them improve their competitiveness, access new markets, and insert themselves into regional and global value chains.
