CHALLENGES IN CHANGING LANDSCAPE IN MSME LENDING FOR BANKS & SUGGESTIVE MEASURES

The Role of MSMEs in the economic and social development of a country can hardly be over- emphasized. They are the major contributor in export, GDP and they play a significant role in maintaining balance in economic development yet they suffer from lack of adequate finance.It has been observed that business with tremendous growth potential fails to gain strong foothold due to paucity of both short term & long term finance.Banks/ FIs has important role to play in nurturing the small business units by providing them with adequate finance. It is observed that "Return on Capital Employed" in case of MSMEs using external finance is higher compared to SMEs who do not borrow. Unfortunately, still many MSMEs are unbanked; they still rely on informal sources of finance such as family, friends and relatives.The banks/ FIs also face several challenges in lending to MSMEs due to the inherent limitations of the sector like inability to submit required papers, lack of adequate collateral security, poor business financials etc.In this article , we have discussed the major challenges faced by banks in lending to MSMEs and some suggestive measures for improvement.
