The Economic Significance of MSMEs

MSMEs are not just small enterprises; they are pivotal to India’s economic landscape. Their contributions go beyond GDP and manufacturing, creating employment opportunities and fostering innovation. However, the sector needs support to meet evolving global standards and thrive in a competitive market.

Challenges Faced by MSMEs

High operational and deployment costs and limited resources to spare for responsible business practices.

Limited knowledge of ESG risks and opportunities as well as strategic application of key principles and impact reporting.

Inadequate funding and poor credit performance, affecting their bankability.

Pressure to meet minimum regulations and compliance requirements within global supply chains.

Evolving ESG regulations further compound these difficulties, often leading to financial strain and exploitative terms of engagement for MSMEs in large supply chains.
