The Impact

This study examines the impact of a regional bank merger in Japan on borrowing by small businesses, focusing on firms that borrow from the acquiring bank, the acquired bank, or both. First, we find that post-merger borrowing costs declined. This result suggests that small borrowers enjoy more favorable post-merger financing conditions because efficiencies from economies of scale lead to lower costs. Second, we<strong> </strong>find that post-merger borrowing costs decline for firms that borrow only from the acquiring or acquired bank, whereas they did not decline for firms that borrow from both. Third, we find that only small business loans to firms that borrow from both the acquiring and acquired banks decrease post-merger. This result suggests that small business lending might decline because of a merged bank’s loan portfolio and lending strategy.

The article analyzes the quantitative and structural stability of Russian small business and identifies the model features of its functioning. It investigates the dynamics of development of Russian small business is investigated and notes a downward trend in the number of small and medium-sized enterprises over the past two years. A conclusion is drawn that the quantitative indicators reflecting its functioning are highly sensitive to the negative effects of the macroeconomic environment. The author introduces a concept of the small business heterogeneity and brings up its structural characteristics, represented by various categories of small and medium-sized firms. Comparative analysis of the Russian small business model with foreign small business confirms its quantitative and structural instability. That makes the considered sector of the national economy vulnerable to shocks (externalities), including the COVID-19 pandemic. It is assumed that the negative consequences of the pandemic will affect Russian small businesses more than foreign ones, and the gap in their development levels will widen. An assessment of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Russian small business and a forecast of its development are made in the context of limited government support and the absence of active bank lending.

The Impact

The article analyzes the development of small business using the example of that one in Naberezhnye Chelny. A competitive market is influenced by many factors. These are laws, state policy in the field of small business in the construction sector, as exemplified in this article, a competitive environment. The article presents the impact of Federal Law No. 135 “On Protection of Competition” on the competitive environment, including in construction. In our country,a lot is said about supporting small businesses, there are federal and regional programs. There is also an understanding of what kind of small business it is and what it is for. There are many definitions of small business. Each country has certain criteria for evaluating small businesses. The main thing is that the goal of small business is to increase jobs, and not just to employ people, but to increase the country’s human resources. It should be borne in mind that small businesses respond more quickly to local business conditions. The novelty of the research is that an important point of small business is the creation of a market close to perfect competition, and this is the basis of the concept of logistics barter, which will dominate the economy. The new concept of logistic barter involves the denial of monetary relations between manufacturers in the B2B segment. The B2C segment is not interesting for logistic barter. The money will remain in “households” who care about the market with ideally perfect competition. A market of perfect competition and antitrust laws will work in tandem. Banks will be relevant only for end consumers, namely “households”.
