Deep alley restaurants, convenience supermarkets, and street shops have become "Internet celebrity" check-in places; Smart home appliances, new energy equipment, "Made in China" is popular in the international market. Behind these seemingly unrelated economic phenomena, there are small, medium and micro business entities. In 2023, the operating conditions of small, medium and micro business entities will improve. According to data released by the China Association of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises not long ago, the average value of the SME Development Index in 2023 is 892, up from 88 in 20224。
There are a huge number of small, medium and micro business entities in China, which are connected to the people's livelihood and the overall economic situation. At present, there are more than 52 million small, medium and micro enterprises in China, in addition to more than 100 million individual industrial and commercial households. The main body of small, medium and micro business is the "capillary" of China's industrial chain, the "nerve ending" of the market, and the "economic cell" serving the masses, and it is also an important force to promote employment and improve people's livelihood. At the same time, small and medium-sized micro business entities have a weak foundation and weak ability to resist risks, and have been facing various difficulties such as intensified competition and rising costs, and are eager for relevant departments to implement more targeted inclusive policies.
The recovery of the market is inseparable from the policy warmth. The "Opinions of the Communist Party of China on Promoting the Development and Growth of the Private Economy" issued last year clearly stated that a support policy "enjoy without application" mechanism should be established for private small, medium and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households. **The Financial Work Conference proposed that more financial resources should be used to promote scientific and technological innovation, advanced manufacturing, green development and micro, small and medium-sized enterprises. The average value of the SME development index has stabilized and rebounded, which confirms the effectiveness of a series of macro policies and improves the development environment for small, medium and micro business entities.
Among the many preferential policies, the most direct is the support of real gold. Last year, there were more than 2 new tax cuts and fee reductions and tax refunds and deferrals across the country2 trillion yuan; Carry out special rectification actions for illegal charges related to enterprises, resolutely rectify arbitrary fees, fines, and apportionments, and inspect 7 enterprise-related charging units throughout the year90,000 households, urging the return of 21 enterprises600 million yuan; Commercial banks are encouraged to issue special financial bonds for small and micro enterprises, with a total of 263.7 billion yuan issued in 2023. Sincere relief and assistance, real policy "red envelopes", so that small and medium-sized micro business entities continue to maintain development vitality in the process of economic recovery.
The key to enhancing the vitality of the enterprise is to stimulate the endogenous power of the business entity. In order to withstand the test of the market, the main body of small, medium and micro enterprises must have the spirit of unremitting self-improvement. Since last year, small and medium-sized micro business entities have worked hard to improve their internal skills, make every effort and grow upward, and promote the continuous recovery of tourism, catering, accommodation, foreign trade and other markets. A large number of new technologies, new industries, new formats and new models also come from the long-term accumulation and exploration of small and medium-sized enterprises. Up to now, China has cultivated a total of 10 specialized, special and new small and medium-sized enterprisesMore than 30,000, "little giant" enterprises 120,000, 1,186 individual champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry. More and more small, medium and micro business entities are moving towards the middle and high end of the value chain and embarking on the road of high-quality development.
This year, to further promote the economic recovery, it is necessary to overcome difficulties and challenges such as insufficient effective demand, overcapacity in some industries, weak social expectations, and still many hidden risks. However, the opportunities outweigh the challenges, and the favorable conditions outweigh the unfavorable factors. In the next step, it is also necessary to take more effective measures to support the development of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, continue to stimulate their endogenous motivation and enthusiasm for innovation and creativity, further reduce their burden, and provide a better business environment. Facing the future, the "small guy" will surely burst out with "big energy" and inject strong momentum into China's high-quality development.
