“…As per the cutoff point set by Al-Sayaad et al ( 2006 ), the mean result for people and administrative factor and government support is indicated “Agree” for Likert scale level, the remaining variables indicated “neutral” level. Thus, the study done by Rascón and Velázquez ( 2019 ) the mean result of people and administrative factors is not similar to this study result.…”

“…The correlation between people and administrative factors is similar to the finding of Abdissa and Fitwi ( 2016 ) with the result of r = 0.342. The other study was done by Rascón and Velázquez ( 2019 ) people and administrative factors had a positive relationship with other study variables with the value of r = 0.60 with significant p value. This study result is similar to this study.…”

“…Micro and small enterprise (hereafter MSE) has great contributions for the community, government and graduates or job seekers by creating job opportunities and enhance revenue for the individuals (Rascón & Velázquez, 2019 ). MSEs are contributing a lion share of the country economy to bring sustainable development in developed and developing countries, and able to bring a paradigm shift for a new and more sustainable way of production and consumption (Alemu & Dame, 2017 ; Karanja et al, 2013 ; Ruchkina et al, 2017 ).…”

The sample of the study was selected through proportional stratified random sampling technique from the business types (manufacturing, construction, urban agriculture, service and trade). To collect the primary data, questionnaires were dispatched to owners/operators of micro and small enterprises. The collected data were analyzed through descriptive, correlation and regression analysis techniques. The finding of the study revealed that people and administrative factors, regulatory factors, economic factors, partnerships, leadership of owner have a positive relationship to micro–small enterprise continuous operations during COVID-19 pandemic with the value of r = 0.457, 0.558, 0.572, 0.519 and 0.654, respectively. The study regression analysis result assured that partnership, economic factors, and leadership of the owner has a positive statistical significant effect on the continuous operations of the micro and small enterprise during COVID-19 pandemic with the value of (p < 0.05).

“…We found that the research on the mortality risk of MSE is increasing because entrepreneurship is a global trend, as it is considered a driver for economic growth [4,39,40] and a contributor to the creation of jobs and innovations [2]. Therefore, the management of MSEs has gained importance at the social, governmental, business, and academic levels [6].…”

“…MSEs represent the majority of the total number of companies in most countries [6,7] and, because of their diversity, they are generally classified regarding the number of employees, annual turnover, and amount of total annual assets [8]. MSEs are fragile and are exposed to risks in the initial years of operation, a period in which entrepreneurs are learning to operate a new business [9].…”

Mortality Risk Factors in Micro and Small Businesses: Systematic Literature Review and Research Agenda

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Most micro and small businesses (MSEs) are limited in organizational structure, financial resources, technology, and management strategies. Due to these limitations, there are many risks involved in this sector. Understanding the aspects that contribute to the risk of mortality among MSEs is important to guide entrepreneurs in the development of strategic actions and to assist governments in the elaboration of policies that support the creation of new ventures. For this, it is important to know the key factors that contribute to the risk of business mortality. Thus, the following research questions emerge: What is the state of the art on the subject of business mortality in MSE? What are the factors that contribute to the risk of mortality in MSE? What is the relationship between the factors that contribute to the risk of mortality in MSE? The objective of this research was to analyze what the risk factors are for MSE mortality and how they are related to each other. From a systematic literature review, the state of the art on the topic of business mortality in MSEs was evidenced and its risk factors were identified. One hundred and six articles, published from January 2000 to February 2021, were analyzed. The results showed 36 mortality risk factors and highlighted the risks associated with innovative processes, business management, and the characteristics of the entrepreneur. This study contributes to a theoretical framework on corporate mortality and provides an agenda for future research, showing gaps to be explored. In terms of managerial implications, we suggest that entrepreneurs prioritize training initiatives, investing in education, that MSEs participate in cooperation networks to establish partnerships between stakeholders, and that they invest in technological tools to make companies more competitive in the market.
