Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise Development Project

Subloan database. The reimbursement applications made by the PFIs (participating financial institutions) to the implementing agency were not standardized; the PFIs used different spellings in fields and the fields were different as well. This made analyzing the subloans for all 13,465 SMEs (small and medium-sized enteprises) (on the basis of location, industry, etc.) virtually impossible. The database would have been more effective if a standard reporting template with all required fields and their probable values had been prefixed.
