- The pre central era
- The era of banking legislation
- The era of indigenization
- The post Okigbo era
The Nigeria small and medium enterprises (SMES) and bank was incorporated in the 1970s and fall within the era of indigenization with the aim of financing small and medium enterprises in Nigeria economy. The Nigeria small and medium enterprises and bank is a development finance institution specifically set up to deliver credit to small and medium enterprises in Nigeria. This is carried out through the provision of loans to individuals, limited liability companies cooperative organization etc. in addition, banks provide financing by directing investment in the equity capital of major small and medium industries. The activities of banks also geared towards assisting in improving the income and welfare of small and medium industries owners in Nigeria promoting rural development as well as increasing the nation output of goods and cost to meet the needs of rapidly increasing population in Nigeria. The banks policy was modified to embrace the challenges of small and medium industries owners, green revolution programme, the small holders direct loan scheme and on lending scheme for the river basin development authorities. The bankers committee is a body constituted by representation of banks in Nigeria. The scheme was approved at their 246thmeeting held December 21, 1999. According to them, this was a response to federal government’s concern and policy measure for the promotion of small and medium industries (SMES) as a vehicle for rapid industrialization, sustainable economic development, poverty alleviation and employment generation. The scheme requires all banks in Nigeria to set aside 10% for their profit tax (PBT) for equity investment in small and medium scale industries which commenced on June 19th 2001.
1.2 Statement Of Problems
