The Tanzanian government is in the early stages of reviewing the regulatory and operating environment for its SMEs.

4.2.2 Training provision for women
The identification of women's training needs has often been flawed because "women are rarely treated as knowing what they need" (ibid: 30).

How to Determine Your Business Success with Financial Ratio
If you’ve ever wondered how well your business is doing - truly doing - one way to clear up the mystery is to use financial ratios. Financial ratios are used by accountants and bankers to evaluate everything from your current income ratio, to debts, to inventory, and even your return on sales or capital investments. A lower ratio means a more severe problem. Another important assessment step in financial ratios is estimating your debt equity ratio. The debt equity ratio compares debt and equity and the two types of capitalization.
Joint Venture Equity
Since institutional equity providers prefer larger deals, developers looking for $3 million in equity, for example, have a hard time getting their attention.
