Abstract

The purpose of this study is to better understand the relationship between SMEs and the long-awaited socio-economic development by examining the contribution of SMEs to that development. We base our analysis on the ARDL model for the years 2000–2020. The results demonstrated a consistent upward trend in the number of SMEs established in proportion to value added and non-hydrocarbon exports, underscoring the significance of SMEs.
