It's no secret that small and medium enterprises (SMEs) often struggle to get the financing they need to grow. This study takes a closer look at how the government, banks, and guarantee institutions can work together to make SME finance more sustainable. Imagine it as a big game, where each player has a role and the goal is to boost SME access to cash.

First, let's talk about the government. They're like the referee in this game, setting the rules and making sure everyone plays fair. By creating policies and programs that support SMEs, the government can make it easier for banks to lend.

Banks, on the other hand, are the ones actually handing out the money. But they can be a bit cautious, especially when it comes to SMEs. That's where guarantee institutions come in. They act like a safety net, promising to cover some of the risk if an SME can't pay back a loan.

The interesting part is how these three players interact and adapt. The study uses something called evolutionary game modeling and simulation to figure out how their actions affect the whole system. It's like watching a game of chess, but instead of knights and rooks, you've got governments, banks, and guarantee institutions.

By understanding this strategic game, we can see how changes made by one player can ripple through the system, making it easier or harder for SMEs to get the financing they need. It's a complex dance, but one that's crucial for the health of the economy.
