Facilitating the Green Transition for ASEAN SMEs

A Toolkit for Policymakers

This toolkit provides governments with policy guidance across three areas – regulatory tools, financial tools, and information tools – to help SMEs in the ASEAN Member States enhance their environmental performance and economic competitiveness. In each of these three areas, approaches are highlighted that focus on supporting cost-effective measures that enhance competiveness. Chapter 3 of this report also provides a series of quick and digestible messages about the benefits of greener practices for both SMEs and for policy makers, and their respective roles in this process. This toolkit aims to distil the lessons learned through the OECD’s work on greening SMEs in other regions, notably the six countries of the Eastern Partnership region, while drawing upon the experiences of other OECD member states and ongoing actions taking place in ASEAN Member States.
