The article gives an overview of the factors that precondition the aggressive expansion of big corporate business (mostly of companies – raw materials producers) and, at the same time, stagnation in development of small and medium enterprises. The disproportions caused by these anomalies together with hierarchical character of relations between the State and the business sector greatly reduce the investment potential and the scope of Russian private and state companies’ innovative activities. The author sees the transition from a hierarchical model of business-State relations to a more balanced partnership interaction as a solution to the arising problems.

In India micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in the development of economy through their contribution to GDP, employment generation, regional development, export promotion, etc. Irrespective of the achievements of the small and medium enterprise (SME) sector, there are certain issues which eclipse desired growth. Availability of ample and timely credit at reasonable rate of interest is vital for the development of these sectors. There seems to be a gap between demand for and supply of the bank credit to SMEs. The delay in processing of credit and the rate of rejections discourage the borrowers from applying for credit. Hence, this article aims to analyse the discouragement faced by MSME loan applicants from the evidence of rejections and delays in advancing loans in Jorhat district in the state of Assam in India.
