Some firms grow. Others stall. The difference is capabilities. Even when firms in developing markets have the right product, pricing, and market conditions, growth opportunities can go unrealized. IFC’s latest Emerging Market Insights note, authored by Arti Grover, finds that companies with strong management and technological capabilities are far more likely to perform better. In developing countries, over US$1 billion is invested annually in upgrading the capabilities of 4–5 million entrepreneurs. From agribusiness to retail, these programs help firms innovate, adopt new technologies, manage crisis better, anticipate market conditions and enter new markets, thereby not only providing stable but also more jobs.
