Micro, small and medium enterprises have made up 99.5 percent of the country's business establishments, employing 63 percent of the country's workforce, and contributing to 40 percent of the country's GDP in the past years. This was based on Q4 2020 statistics from the United Nations Development Programme. In 2020, this number declined due to community lockdowns.

Today, as the economy is steadily opening up, MSMEs are now getting back on track. One important factor they need is access to finance. Financing is essential to the growth of MSMEs, as it can help them to resume operations and re-enter the market.
