Finance Bank services A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for award of the degree of Master of Business Administration in Corporate Management (MBA-CM) of Mzumbe University. The aim of this study was to examine challenges faced by Micro and Small Enterprises regarding the process of accessing finance from commercial banks in Tanzania using Kariakoo Market as a case study. The study utilized both primary and secondary data through a case study research design.The study used a sample of 100 respondents from micro and small enterprises that are in operation, mainly beauty shops, mobile phones and accessories vendors, clothes and shoe vendors, food, salons and cereal vendors. Data analysis techniques involved quantitative and qualitative analysis. Quantitative analysis was aided by a computer program through outputs from SPSS version 20.0 and excel, while qualitative analysis involved content analysis based on the primary data and respondents comments. The findings indicate that, MSEs at Karikaoo market have been facing difficulties in accessing loans from banks. This is attributed by lack of adequate correct information and knowledge with regards to get their loans; high cost of credit; difficult collateral requirements and inadequate business skills for entrepreneurs to maintain proper books of accounts and failure to prepare bankable business plans. The study concludes that, MSEs have a great potential to substantially contribute to economic growth of the country. Given their potentials, MSEs need to be equipped with necessary tools that will help them grow and utilise their full potentials. The study recommends training and education to MSEs should be given a top priority to enhance their entrepreneurial skills and be able to manage financial challenges. The government need to put in place enabling environment that will ensure MSEs are supported in terms of accessing finance, and research institutions and academia should work hand in hand with other stakeholders to conduct further research that will in identify more challenges and offer workable solutions.
