Recital 12
(12) Many of the Union's competitiveness problems involve SMEs' difficulties in getting access to finance because they struggle to demonstrate their credit- worthiness and have difficulties in gaining access to risk capital. This has a negative effect on the level and quality of the new enterprises created and, on the growth of enterprises and on the success of transfers of ownership or generational handovers. The added value for the Union of the proposed financial instruments lies inter alia in strengthening the Single Market for venture capital and in developing a pan- European SME finance market. The Union’s actions should be complementary to the Member States’ use of financial instruments for SMEs. The entities entrusted with the implementation of the actions should ensure additionality and avoid double financing through EU resources.
