Description: Last twenty years small and medium enterprises (here and after — SME) play crucial role and make a great impact on the growth economy. Latest research shows their incresing part in GDP in the most highly developed countries. High developed SME sector became a feature of wealthy economy and prosperous country. In the Investopedia the definition of SME looks like small and midsize enterprises are businesses that maintain revenues, assets or a number of employees below a certain threshold. Every country and economic organization has its own definition of what is considered a small and medium- sized enterprise. In the United States, there is no distinct way to identify SMEs, but in the European Union, a small-sized enterprise is a company with fewer than 50 employees, while a medium-sized enterprise is one with fewer than 250 employees. As statistics shows, more than 15,2 thousand of medium and 328 thousand of small business representatives function in Ukraine. On these enterprises more than 6.1 million employees are involved. This is not very high indicators for such a big country as Ukraine. There is a range of obstacles which exist and do not allow SME to develop. Most of them were described in huge number of scientific and popular literature. Among them there are: – Poor entrepreneurial culture in the countries. People do not know how to start and then how to run their businesses; risk of capital loosing is also make potential entrepreneurs to refuse from further actions, – The pressure of authorities on SMEs decrease the incentives of development. The cost of running business is much higher because of the corruption; – The strategy of SME development, does not fit general government policy of economic growth; – Poor literacy of knowledge about different finding sources leave SMEs on the sidelines of financial flows; – The focus on only trading activity does not accept SMEs to create innovations. This means that their competitiveness is lower than other innovative enterprises. That is why for most SMEs the grant funding, which supports innovations, is closed; – Ukrainian banks nowadays are more strictly than before in risk assessments of business. The banks suffer from the lack of clients in SME sector, but in the same time they must follow the requirements of Central Banks. Situations can be changed with the adoption of a number of measures in such directions: to develop modern and traditional instruments of SMEs projects financing; to work out the tax incentives and instruments of development innovations and investments in SME; to develop entrepreneurial culture as a background for the SMEs growth; to transform the ways of governmental support of SMEs development in the context of global challenges; to measure of the effectiveness of international support programs for the SMEs development; to propose new forms of business associations and their role in the SMEs development; to identify the priority sectors of small and medium enterprises as drivers of economic growth; to develop social investments as a contribution to SMEs development.
