International research suggests the importance of UK SMEs in driving job growth, innovation and productivity. Many SMEs are however born small, stay small and many die young. Some - small - groups of SMEs, however, make a disproportionate contribution to growth and productivity. These include a small group of fast job growing firms, around 3 per cent of SMEs who are 'growth heroes', increasing both employment and productivity significantly. Alongside these businesses, the UK has a group of 'reluctant exporters' who share the characteristics of exporting SMEs, but who are currently not selling abroad. Here, we argue that these three groups of firms represent policy priorities for the future, in addition to general measures to improve the framework conditions for UK SMEs. While it remains valid to provide broadly-based, light-touch support to SMEs generally, we argue that the 'bang/buck' ratio is likely to be greatest from concentrating support on two priority groups in particular: fast-growing firms (including the 'growth heroes') and the reluctant exporters.Normal para text [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
