Resolution on the definition of SMEs

This resolution concerns the definition of SMEs. Amendments cite the roughly 23 million SMEs making up around 99 percent of EU businesses and over 90 million jobs, the disproportionate administrative and financial burdens they face, the definition's use across approximately 100 EU legal acts, and the 2003 recommendation; they debate preserving its flexibility, preventing larger players from exploiting it, and updating financial thresholds for inflation since 2003.
