Objectives

Burkenroad Latin America's objective is to promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Region (Mexico, Colombia and Venezuela) by improving their capacity to access financial markets and increasing the supply of skilled management.

The project will specifically contribute to foster capital movement to and within the participating countries by enhancing the quality of financial research expertise as well as the quality, transparency, and distribution of financial information to national and international sources of capital.

The project will transfer to the participating Latin American educational institutions and local financial analysts know-how developed by Tulane University to produce and implement "Burkenroad Reports" for SMEs. The project’s goals will be accomplished by:

- The training of the participating institutions’ professors on financial research and investment issues, related to the "Burkenroad Reports" preparation;

-
The development of courses to be offered by the trained professors to students and other practitioners; and

- The preparation and dissemination of the Burkenroad Reports.
