Abstract

Looking at the example of Malaysia, the authors explore the financing of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) in developing countries. Recently, there has been a growing potential niche for SMEs in Malaysia due to changes in behavior in the manufacturing sector. A possible role for Islamic banks and venture capitalism is foreseen by the authors in providing funds for SME's. An idea put forth is that management training and education are in need of enhancement.
