dc.description.abstractThis study aims to investigate the effect of government financing and regulations that support market differentiation in the sector of small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) in Iraq. A quantitative approach will be used and a survey instrument employed to collect data from 279 SMEs in the targeted sample size of 2,136 managers of SMEs working in Erbil city in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region. Structural equation modelling will be used to test the direction of the relationship between the variables. The results of this study showed that government regulation in Iraq positively affected competitive advantage and indicated that financing has an insignificant effect on the competitive advantage of Iraqi SMEs. This study also suggested several main policy implications of these findings as well as the limitations and recommendations for future research on supporting SMEs. � 2020 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.en_US
