The juridical order, in which the main legal and regulatory instruments that favor small businesses. The institutional structure, in which the governmental apparatus directed specifically at this segment is described. The governmental plans and policies, in which the form of insertion and the treatment given to these firms in the many government plans are explained. And finally, the specific programs and actions, encompassing the diverse instruments that aim to stimulate the segment.
