SIGNIFICANCE OF FINANCING SMEs
• Little is known on SME Finance Market in Tanzania. Researches on both the supply and demand for finance in relation to SMEs have been empirically-based
• About a third of the GDP originates from the SME sector
• Create employment at relatively low levels of investment per job created. Public sector employs only about 40,000 per annum (5.7% of the new entrants)
SIGNIFICANCE OF FINANCING SMEs
•Effective in the utilization of local resources, using simple and affordable technology.
•SMEs play a fundamental role in utilizing and adding value to local resources.
SIGNIFICANCE OF FINANCING SMEs• The role of finance has been viewed as a critical element for
the development of small and medium-sized enterprises.
• Studies have highlighted the limited access to financial resources available to smaller enterprises compared to larger organizations and the consequences for their growth and development.
• Typically, smaller enterprises face higher transaction costs than larger enterprises in obtaining credit. Insufficient funding has been made available to finance working capital.
SIGNIFICANCE OF FINANCING SMEs
• Poor management and accounting practices have hampered the ability of smaller enterprises to raise finances.
• Information asymmetries associated with lending to small scale borrowers have restricted the flow of finance to smaller enterprises.
• Some studies show a large number of small
enterprises fail because of non-financial reasons.
