Abstract

Independent, high-growth SMEs are a significant driver of France’s economic growth: they create a large number of jobs, make a significant contribution to innovation and are particularly profitable when they manage to emerge. Their rapid development requires a suitable financing method: once they have reached maturity, these companies raise their equity levels in order to restore their balance sheet, opening up their capital to private investors, both households and businesses.
