1. Promoting SMEs though Access to
Finance
Presented by:
M. A. Baqui Khalily
Department of Finance
University of Dhaka, Bangladesh.
2. Overwhelming Interest in
Access to Finance
Seminal work of McKinnon (1973) and Shaw
(1973) led to re-emergence of the issue of
“finance matters in development”
The classical work of Patrick (1966) – ‘demand
following’ and ‘supply-leading’ finance strategy is
re-visited.
Debate on the direction of causality between
finance and growth. This is well documented
(King and Levin (1993), Levin and Zervos (1998),
Arestis et. al. (2001), Gupta (1984).
Several conclusions are derived from the
literature: Finance follows growth in developing
countries, and growth induces finance in
3. Micro Level Research on Access
to Finance
Rajan and Zingles (1998): Industries with access
to external finance grow at faster rate.
Wurgler (2000) and Aghian et. al. (2007) with
similar conclusion: Increase in investment in more
growing industries.
BUT small and medium industries find it difficult to
raise funds for inherent behavioral characteristics
of financial institutions (Hutchinson and Xavier
2007; Berger and Udell 2004).
Research on impact of microfinance reinforces
the fact ‘access to finance’ matters (e.g., Hossain
1988; Khandker; Zohir et. al.; Rahman et. al.)
4. SMEs in Development Agenda
Most of the growth theories suggest that
industrialization is the engine of economic growth
A balanced growth of both agriculture and
industrialization is very important and necessary
for the economic development of Bangladesh
For pursuing the industrial development efforts,
the main objectives and strategies focused are
optimal utilization of resources, creating
employment opportunities and catalyzing the
growth of production and exports
5. SMEs in Development Agenda
The World Business Council for Sustainable
Development (WBCSD) showed that in the
developing countries, more than 90% of all firms,
outside the agricultural sector, are SMEs and
microenterprises and generating a significant
portion of GDP
In Bangladesh, enterprises of less than 100
employees account for 99% of firms and 58% of
employment
6. SMEs in Development Agenda
(cont.)
Well managed and healthy SMEs are a source of
employment and wealth as well as poverty
alleviation. Moreover, there is a positive relationship
between a country’s overall level of income and the
number of SMEs per 1,000 people (IFC, 2006)
The World Bank’s Doing Business reports indicate
that a healthy SME sector corresponds with a
reduced level of informal or “black market” activities
Local SMEs can work as an important source of
supply and service provision to the large enterprises
of both national and internationals
SME is also good for communities itself, because
through employment creation and growth, it will
improve the standard of living of the communities.
7. Sources of Finance and Stages of
SME Development
The entrepreneurs require mainly three types of
finances:
(i) equity capital - to finance assets at the start of a business;
(ii) debts – to refinance assets; and
(iii) working capital – to maintain the day-to-day activities
(Jesmin, 2009)
Access to credit/financing is deemed to be one of
the greatest hurdles faced by SMEs
9. Bangladesh inherited a weak backbone of
industrialization since independence.
According to Bangladesh economic review, the
contribution of the broad industry sector to real
GDP:
17.31 percent in 1980-81,
29.95 percent in 2009-10
SMEs witnessed very limited growth during 90s, and
this was mainly due to negative growth of the small
industries (employment size less than 20).
INDUSTRIALIZATION AND SME
DEVELOPMENT IN BANGLADESH
10. State of SMEs in Bangladesh
The importance of SME especially small and cottage
industries is always recognized in every
development plans of government before and since
liberation
Recently the development partners also giving
importance to SMEs
The government of Bangladesh is also taking a lot
measures for the improvement of the SMEs:
Targeted program for SME
Targeted for women entrepreneurs
SME Foundation
Refinancing of SME loans
The main constraints of financing, even with
11. State of SMEs in Bangladesh
There were approximately 6 million micro, small
and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which included
enterprises with up to 100 workers employing a
total of 31 million people, equivalent to 40 per cent
of the population of the country of age 15 years and
above (MIDAS,2003)
By the end of 2010, it has grown enormously, at
least by 50 percent. Approximately around 9 milion
MSMEs.
Contribution of MFIs.
12. State of SMEs in Bangladesh
There are more than 600,000 small and cottage
enterprises in Bangladesh (Ahmed, 2004) .
Some 3 million micro enterprises are also in
operation
90 percent of all industrial units are SMEs (SEDF,
2003)
If we accept the estimates of Ahmed (2004) and the
fact reported by SEDF, it can be estimated that there
are some 900,000 industrial units in the country.
Manufacturing sector contributes only around 10
percent of total employment.
13. State of SMEs in Bangladesh
Return to capital investment is higher for micro
and small enterprises (above 30 percent)
compared to 13 percent for the medium
enterprises
SMEs in Bangladesh have higher profitability than
some European countries. Operating profit of
SMEs as reported in SEDF (2006):
Bangladesh: 12 percent
Greece: 7 percent
Franc 5.1 percent, and Canada: 9.2 percent
SMEs in Bangladesh have higher potentials and
can play very significant role in growth and
development, as it is Japan.
14. State of SMEs in Bangladesh
There is no precise estimate of the contribution of SMEs
to GDP. Serder (2000) reported around 20 percent
contribution of small-scale enterprises to GDP.
Daniels (2003): Contribution of MSMEs - around 25
percent to GDP. The contribution is expected to increase
with the inclusion of public sector enterprises.
Rabbani and Sulaiman (2005) show that SMEs with
relaxed liquidity constraint because of bank finance tend
to create more employment than the SMEs with lesser or
no access to credit
Despite lack of adequate data, empirical evidences
suggest that SMEs perhaps contribute around 25 percent
to GDP
15. SME Financing in Bangladesh
Dismal pictures of SME financing:
Khan, Imam and Khatun (1998)
Khan, Imam, Khatun and Ahmed (2003)
Daniels (2003)
SEDF (2006)
All these studies report same findings: Around forty
percent of the SMEs do not approach banks for loans.
Around fifteen percent of the loan applications are
rejected on the ground of guarantee or collateral,
asymmetric information and high transaction cost
In Bangladesh, SMEs are largely financed by own
funds.
Equity fund through capital market is not a widely
16. SME Financing in Bangladesh
The recent study of SEDF (2006) reinforces the
earlier findings that SMEs have limited access to
bank financing
It shows that about two-third of the SMEs did not
approach banks for loans
Most of them approached banks for working
capital loans. Not all of them were granted loans
It takes about two months on an average to get
loan sanctioned. The findings are similar to the
earlier studies.
17. Finance is a constraint
Access of the small enterprises to credit has not
improved over the past 30 year – access to
finance is still a dominating constraint.
All previous studies reported the same:
SEDF (2006)
Task Force report 2004
Ahmed 2004

19. What restricts banks to finance
SMEs?
Literature on industrial finance and entrepreneurship
development amply document two factors that
restrict banks to extend sufficient credit facilities to
the SME sector.:
Collateral,
High transaction cost
• Empirical evidences suggest that banks do not
sanction credit to the SMEs for lack of collateral and
high transaction cost (SEDF 2006; Khan et. al.,
2003; Khalily et. al. 1994, Rahman et. al. 1979).
• SEDF (2006) reports that even 16 percent of loans
sanctioned did not take loan for lack of sufficient
20. What Do We learn?
Small enterprises are largely excluded. They are
the “Missing Middle’. This group has nether
access to formal credit market nor do they have
access to micro credit market.
Collateral is a constraint for promoting SMEs, in
particular small enterprises.
21. BRAC Bank and “Missing Middle”
BRAC bank initiated SMEs lending in 2001
BRAC Bank emerged through a process of learning.
BRAC
They probably perceived that while the ‘big push’
was required for taking micro enterprises to the next
phase of development, it was important that small
enterprises are promoted as they are the ‘missing
middle’ in the path of development
In the private banks, the SMEs did not get sufficient
access to get loan as the large corporation did.
BRAC bank came to break that tradition, and started
providing different types of SME loans, particularly

24. BRAC Bank, as a Development
Bank, follows Triple Bottom Line
Although BRAC Bank finances SMEs, its focus has been on
the small enterprises with average loan size around TK 5
lacs. WHY?
They are largely left out in the credit market
Small entrepreneurs are essentially the people within lower 50th
percentile of income distribution
These entrepreneurs learn through doing, and/or learning from the
experience of others in the same profitable business
They have potentials to grow with backward and forward linkages
These enterprises are generally family enterprises with participation
of qualified family members and hired laborers
They will be effective agents of change at the community level
promoting small enterprises will in fact help others with
homogeneous characteristics to learn from the experiences of these
arguably successful entrepreneurs.
BRA Bank not only provides credit to small business, they
25. How Effective is BRAC Bank?
A recent study shows that BRAC Bank has made
impact at the enterprise and household level of the
borrowers.
The study was conducted over randomly selected 525
enterprises of 21 SME unit offices of BRAC bank
Of the enterprise borrowers, 35 percent were repeat
borrowers. The other samples included enterprises who
did not apply for repeat loan or rejected for the repeat
loan.
The basic characteristics prior to accessing Brac Bank
credit were homogenous in terms of number of
employees, assets size, initial capital size.

33. BRAC BANK is effective
BRAC Bank is effective in reaching the long
ignored “missing middle” with average loan size
of around Taka350,000.
They do provide collateral free loans.
Their loan programs have positive impacts at the
enterprise and household level. Most
interestingly, it has contributed to backward and
forward linkages.
The bank operates largely in rural areas, and
therefore playing a critical role in rural financial
market
34. Can MFIs play a role in reaching
out ‘missing middle’?
MFIs are largely financing micro enterprises in
Bangladesh.
Missing middle can be financed by MFIs if lateral
entry is permitted. Microcredit Regulatory Agency
should think about it.
This will also create competition in rural credit
market.
