Auteurs : Nechma Yacine . Naidji Abdelkrim .

Résumé

The study aims to examine stakeholders’ perceptions of the effectiveness of institutional support provided by the National Entrepreneurship Support and Development Agency (NESDA) in Annaba, Algeria, a transitional economy, and the factors that influence such perceptions. SPSS was used to analyze data from a quantitative questionnaire survey of 117 respondents across three stakeholder groups (group comparisons, regression, and correlation). The results show significant differences in perception between the groups, with agents having the most positive perception and entrepreneurs the least. Financial and advisory support are positively associated with perceived effectiveness, but regulatory support is not. Financial and advisory support have a positive but not strong relationship with relational social capital. These findings indicate that agencies should concentrate on offering financial and advisory support and building beneficiaries’ confidence.
