Also other programs similar to micro finance and models of findings in other countries were pointed out. In the review of related literature area, such as their objectives, their past performances were carried out thoroughly using primary data (questionnaires).Collected data where analyzed, summarized, and interpreted accordingly with the aid of descriptive statistical techniques such as total score and simple percentage, using pie charts and tables. Chi square technique was adopted. Based on the findings of this study, the researcher found out that SMEs have greater access to micro-credit, and MFIs has contributed to Business, Financial and Managerial Training of SMEs.
