| metadata.dc.description.other-abstract: | This research aims to examine the factors influencing the adoption of SME banking programs, explore their role in poverty reduction and financial development in Bangladesh, and assess their impact on the country’s economic growth and job creation. The study employs a mixed-method approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies. Quantitatively, data was collected from five commercial banks over a 20-year period (2004-2023) and analyzed using the Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model. Qualitative data was gathered through interviews with SME beneficiaries and experts, which were analyzed using content analysis and PESTLE analysis. The study found that commercial banks under the SME banking scheme may develop a participatory and inclusive model to remove the ultrapoor, reducing poverty through financial development where small and medium enterprises get access to financing, marketing, and creating employment through growth with equity and decreasing income inequality, and boosting SME export earnings, paving the way for Bangladesh’s LDC graduation in 2026 |
