Abstract
Micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) play a critical role in economic development and job creation for all countries. This is particularly the case in developing countries, where they are estimated to contribute up to 60% of total formal employment and up to 40% of national incomei. These numbers increase significantly if you also take into account the informal sector.
