Abstract

This study examines the perceived association between financial risk management and beliefs of small business owners about the financial performance of their new small business ventures in the service and manufacturing industries of India. The survey shows that the perceived valuation of financial risk management positively affects the beliefs of small business owners about the financial performance of their new small business ventures in both the service and manufacturing industries of India. Results show that financial performance is significantly higher among new small business ventures with adequate internal financing sources relative to new small business ventures without adequate internal financing sources. This study contributes to the literature on the relationship between financial risk management and financial performance of new small business ventures. The findings may be useful for financial managers, production and service firm owners, investors, consultants, and other stakeholders.
