CHAPTER ONE
10 INTRODUCTIONS
From observation, I have come to the understanding of one general thing in mind set of people (i.e.) whenever the word “small” is mention, the minds of people race to something or a picture not big, less important, not up to standard in nature. This is the same in business, once small scale industry is being mention; people looked down on it, yet forget to understand that every big thing starts small.
However, studies of modern economics have shown that it is difficult to maintain a balance and sustainable economic growth by depending only on large business organization. Small and large businesses are known to contribute significantly in building a solid and vital economic base in both developed and developing countries. Over the years, studies of management have often concentrated on large organization with strict formed and impersonal relationship. The reason for this obviously includes the high prevalent risk resulting from huge capital investment and large-scale operation. In Nigeria, the term small-scale business has got several definitions. The reason is that different countries are at different level of developrnient, operating within different economic conditions.
According to bank of Commerce and Industry (NBC), small-scale business is a firm whose assets does not exceed N750,000.OO, while Central Bank of Nigeria defines small-scale enterprise as a firm whose assets does not exceed N 25 Million annually.
Therefore, we will examine the uniqueness and the level of Commercial Bank credit to small-scale industries, and then find out how adequate this credit has been in solving the financial problems of small-scale industries.
