...ASSIGNMENT Submitted to: Mohammad A. Arafat Sr. Lecturer SB, IUB. Submitted by: Farzana Rubaya Id: 1230580 MGT (405) Sec: 01 Introduction : Small and medium-sized enterprises sometimes also called small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are businesses whose personnel numbers fall below certain limits. These are the most common businesses found across most of the world’s economies. The World Bank Review on Small Business Activities establishes the commitment of the World Bank Group to the development of the small and medium enterprise (SME) sector as a core element in its strategy to foster economic growth, employment and poverty alleviation. In the context of Bangladesh, the development of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) can be considered as a vital instrument for poverty alleviation and ensure the rapid industrialization. So we can say that the role of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) is indispensable for overall economic development of a country particularly for developing countries like Bangladesh. It has drawn a lot of interest among policy makers, academics, businessmen and people in general. Government of Bangladesh has highlighted the importance of SME in the Industrial Policy-2005. SMEs have been identified by the Ministry of Industries as a ‘thrust sector’. As the SME sector is labor intensive, it can create more employment opportunities. For this reason government of Bangladesh...

Apart from their potential for ensuring a self reliant industrialization, in terms of ability to rely largely on local raw materials, small scale enterprises are also in a better position to boost employ raw materials, small and medium enterprise, are also in a better position to boost employment, guarantee a more even distribution of industrial development in the country, including the rural areas, and facilitate the growth of non-oil exports. In Nigeria, the definition of small and medium enterprises also varies from time to time and according to institutions, for instance, the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) monetary policy circular No:27 of 1988 define small scale enterprises (excluding general commerce) as enterprises in which total investment (including land and working capital) did not exceed #500,000 and or the annual turn-over did not exceed #5.0 million. Medium enterprise (excluding general commerce) as enterprises in which total investment and not exceed #1,000,0000 (1 million) and the annual turnover did not exceed #1.2 million. Small scale enterprises is one of the modern strategies underdeveloped countries are employing to break into the “league” of developed countries. Fasua (2006:85) categorized business that fall under small scale as follows firewood supply, plantain production, restaurant services, small scale poultry raising...

...Case Study: Swarnamukhi Public Bank Limited’s SME Loans This case study was written by Sravanthi Vemulavada, IBSCDC. It is intended to be used as the basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of a management situation. The case was written from generalised experiences. Swarnamukhi Public Bank Ltd’s SME loans Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are enterprises wherein the number of employees and the turnover of the company are below certain defined limits. SME is very commonly used term in European Union, in the United Nations, by the World Bank and the World Trade Organization. However, the size of an SME varies from nation to nation. In the US, a company with less than 100 employees is termed as a Small Enterprise (SE) and a company with less than 500 employees is termed as a Medium Enterprise (ME). In the European Union, a company with less than 50 employees is termed as a SE, while a company with less than 250 employees is called an ME. In Germany, a company is called as an SME if it has 250 employees, while in Belgium, an SME consists of 100 employees. In South Africa, the term Small Medium Micro Enterprise (SMME) is used, whereas in Africa, the nomenclature is Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise (MSME). Most of the economies in the world are dominated by smaller enterprises. They comprise approximately 99% of all the firms and they even account for about 40%–50% of the industrial production. These smaller firms employ...

...imperfections that might constrain growth and economic development of SMEs. As designed, the research initiative can and will provide valuable information about these issues. In summary, the baseline survey undertaken as part of the SME FDI is a potentially invaluable resource with respect to the design, targeting, implementation, and follow-up assessment of public policy approaches to nurturing SME growth and viability. The outcomes of this research process could help Industry Canada and its partners to provide Canadian SMEs with substantial competitive advantage through policy measures that are yet more precisely targeted, effective, and efficient. It is therefore essential that this valuable resource be used with appropriate and careful study. Analysis of these data may allow for the resolution of several long-standing contentious issues with which policy makers, researchers, lobby groups, and, indeed, SME owners have had to...

...CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background to the Study Since the 1960s to date, small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) have been given due recognitions especially in the developed nations for playing very important roles towards fostering accelerated economic growth, development and stability within several economies (Yitzhaki, 2006). They make-up the largest proportion of businesses all over the world and play tremendous roles in employment generation, provision of goods and services, creating a better standard of living, as well as immensely contributing to the gross domestic products (GDPs) of many countries (OECD, 2000).Over the last few decades, the contributions of the SMEs sector, the development of the largest economies in the world have beamed the searchlight on the uniqueness of the SMEs; and this have succeeded in overruling previously held views that SMEs were only ―miniature versions‖ of larger companies (Al-Shaikh 1998; Gaskill et al. 1993). And although Small and Medium Enterprises have been at the center of the policy debate for quite some time in both developed and developing countries, little analytical work has been undertaken in this area.The dearth information that exists among researchers on Small and Medium Enterprises however provides a sense of how important this sector is for sustainable development in emerging economies (Medina, 2001). For instance, recent studies conducted by United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) concur that SMEs...

Different terminologies have been used by different researchers to define the stages of business growth, but the processes through which each business venture passes remain the same. Most researchers agree that each enterprise has to go through the normal business cycle which is to start (introduction), then grow while facing various challenges and crises, and finally mature and decline. There are many factors which will contribute to an enterprise's success. There are many pointers also, which will allow an enterprise to move from one stage to another. There are two sets of thoughts prevailing among researchers; some suggest that the growth strategy followed by the enterprise is linear or...

...Chapter-1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction The role of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) loan is indispensable for overall economic development of a country particularly for developing countries like Bangladesh. Since this sector is labor intensive with short gestation period, it is capable of increasing national income as well as rapid employment generation; achieving Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) especially eradication of extreme poverty and hunger, gender equality and women empowerment. SME sector has played a vital role in economic development of some prosperous countries of Asia. Terming SME as ‘employment generating machine’ they stressed on SME development for higher economic growth, narrowing the gap of income inequality and poverty alleviation. The present government has also put much emphasis on the development of SME sector considering it as the driving force for industrialization. I have selected the Mercantile Bank. Students are required to prepare an internship report under the guidance of a supervisor on a selected subject matter to highlighting his experience and to conduct an in depth analysis on the subject matter.

My supervisor Mr. Emran Ahmed, Lecturer, Department of Business Administration, World University of Bangladesh has allowed me to prepare...

...introduction, statement of the problem, significance and scope and delimitation of the study. Introduction Pitt, B. (2006) stated that by employing the intellegence of natural systems we can create industry, buildings, even regional plans that see nature and commerce not as mutually exclusive but mutually coexisting. Most of the time, business and environment were categorized differently. Often, business is for the economy and environment is the welfare of our Mother Earth where in fact it can work interconnectedly. Both can associate and benefit each other. Micro, small and medium enterprises are defined as any business activity engaged in industry, agri-business or services whether single proprietorship, cooperative, partnership or corporation whose total assets inclusive of those arising from loans but exclusive of the land on which the particular business entity’s office, plant and equipment are situated. (Department of Trade and Industry [DTI], 2007) They are mostly affected by the non plastic ordinance. It is very important on how these small and medium enterprises comply with the Provincial Ordinance No.2012-09 because their consumers are major actors and they can minimize or eliminate the use of short-lived applications of plastics. Bulacan PCEDO (2005) revealed that Bulacan is considered the Small Medium Enterprises (SME) Capital of Region 3 because 35% of small and medium enterprises in Central Luzon were from Bulacan. It all started in 2003 when TatakBulakenyo was...
