ABSTRACT
The study was conducted on Financing Small and Medium industries in Nigeria (A Case Study of Selected small business in Lagos State sub-urban).
The roles play by SSEs as been confirmed by this study. It therefore means that the SSEs can be effectively used to improve the country’s employment and growth if the above stated problems that they face are tackled. More activities of the government should therefore be directed to the industry.
The data were gathered through the administration of questionnaire to respondents from different department status in the organization.
The findings of this work do not differ significantly from what have been said by former researcher as reviewed in chapter two of this work. However, this does not mean that further study into this area cannot be undertaken since new facts are emerging every day.
Small Scale Industries do not prepare proper and regular financial report that makes them not to have one for loan purposes. Policy should be put in place to make compulsory preparation of business name so that names of from which do not subsequently prepare financial report may be struck off from the register book.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Interest in the role of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the development process continues to be in the forefront of policy debates in developing countries. The advantages claimed for SMEs are varies, this include: the encouragement of entrepreneurship; the greater likelihood that SMEs will utilize labour intensive technologies and thus have an immediate impact on employment generation; they can usually be established rapidly and put into operation to produce quick returns. SME development can encourage the process of both inter- and intra-regional decentralisation; and, they may well become a countervailing force against the economic power of larger enterprises.
