ABSTRACT
The study assesses the role played by Micro Finance Institutions in the development of
women owned micro enterprises in Kampala. The study looks at the functions and
support micro finance institutions give to women enterprises. The main micro finance
institutions considered are Foundation for International Community Assistance (FINCA),
The research was carried out in Kampala which hosts the headquarters of these micro
finance institutions.
The hypothesis of the study was stated that micro finance institutions do not lend any
service to small business and micro finance institutions do not play any role in
extending credit to small businesses.
Data for the study was generated on the basis of a combination of questionnaires which
was designed both open and closed ended, and interviewing structure.
The researcher tested that micro finance institutions lend services to women extending
credit and facilitating low income women to start and expand income generating
activities through provision of an easily accessible and flexible banking network.
fhe study recommended that micro finance institutions should work at ensuring that
11oney should flow directly from micro credit providers to the needy with government
interference and the interest charge should at least be reduced to enable women carry their business successfully.
