“…Government support is considered to be one of the key elements in empowering the development of entrepreneurship in any nation, especially developing ones [7,29,30], and as a developing country with additional individual economic risks, we have identified a need for greater financial support and better credit terms if the authorities wish to encourage the increased involvement of women as entrepreneurs in North Cyprus.
