AB This article is concerned with the main government policies in equity financing and capital market funding to support entrepreneurial development in Asia. In particular, the author undertakes a comparative case study analysis of four Asian countries: Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan. The study finds that the government intervention model is successful in Singapore and Taiwan. Although Singapore and Taiwan have clearly defined agencies responsible for carrying out policy implementation, Malaysia and Thailand suffer from having redundant organizations/agencies competing on offering similar innovation financing schemes. The study offers effective innovation financing policy recommendations to support the national economic and social development. The proposed policies can be integrated into national strategies to strengthen the innovation system of the Asian countries.TOPICS: Private equity, emerging, exchanges/markets/clearinghouses
