Existing studies on the linkage between government subsidies and firm financial performance often use a mean regression approach and focus mainly on developed countries. To fill the gap, this study, for the first time, considers the impact of government support activities on the profitability of manufacturing SMEs in a developing country, Vietnam. Using an unbalanced panel dataset covering the period 2009-2015, government financial supports show an insignificant linkage with firm profitability when using OLS. However, a fixed-effect quantile approach reveals that government financial support is negatively related for firms with low profit but is positively related for firms in the high profitability percentile. Our findings also suggest that policymakers should focus on helping start-ups instead of ineffective, informal firms.

This paper summarizes the arguments and counterarguments within the scientific discussion on the issue of state and local governments' support of small businesses in U.S. states. The main purpose of the research is to determine whether state or local government's support positively affects entrepreneurial activity, firm growth, and business owner's optimism in the United States. Non-parametric methods of estimation and analysis of statistical hypotheses were used as the methodological basis of the conducted research, based on which 41 country were analyzed. 2013 was chosen as the study period. The study of the impact of state support on business, company growth and optimism of business owners is carried out in the following logical sequence: each state is assigned to one of two groups, based on their estimates of the level of support of state authorities. First, each state is assigned into one of two groups based on their score on state government support. The states that have a score higher than the mean state were assigned into the "High-State Govt Support" group and the others were assigned into the "Low-State Govt Support" group. Then, the two groups were compared in terms of entrepreneurial activity, firm performance, and optimism. Then, the same procedure is followed for local government support. The study empirically confirmed that greater support from the state or local government has a positive effect on the growth and optimism of the firm. The article presents the results of an empirical analysis for small firms in these countries, which showed that government support is an important driver of company growth and business owner optimism. The paper presents the results of an empirical analysis for small firms in these states, which showed that government support is important for firm growth and owner's optimism. The research empirically confirms and theoretically proves that more state or local government support positively affects firm growth and optimism. The results of the research can be useful for governments that consider supporting small businesses in their region/area.

We analyze the allocation and effectiveness of government support in response to the COVID-19 outbreak across a nationally representative sample of firms in 32 countries representing different levels of institutional transparency. The probability of receiving government support is higher for larger firms, firms belonging to business support groups and innovative firms in low corruption countries. In high corruption, countries firms competing against unregistered establishments, with lack of internationally recognized quality certification and no formalized business strategy are more likely to receive government support. Using the panel structure of the data to address reverse causality, selection bias and unobserved heterogeneity, we then find that government support improves firm-level outcomes more strongly in low corruption countries. Among different types of government support, we find wage subsidies to be more effective in high corruption countries while technical assistance for adoption of digital technologies in low corruption countries. In addition, social distancing and lockdown policies do not seem to be as effective in improving firm-level outcomes in high-corruption countries most likely because of weaker capacities to enforce such policies. These results show the importance of enhancing systems of accountability and enforcement procedures that will ensure that fiscal stimulus aid is deployed to benefit those who need it the most.
In terms of provision of business and advisory supports to indigenous local businesses, the Department of Business, Enterprise & Innovation (DBEI) in conjunction with its development agencies and offices, other Government departments and sectoral support bodies, has over time built a comprehensive suite of such supports ? which can be broadly categorised as information/awareness, advisory, financial, and supports for regional enterprise development. These supports are delivered through a network of bodies with a wide reach into urban and rural localities, including in the case of DBEI, Enterprise Ireland, the 31 Local Enterprise offices (LEOs), InterTrade Ireland (ITI), and MicroFinance Ireland (MFI). This paper sets out the range of supports available to all businesses in the country.
