To establish if there is a significant effect of banking services on development of small scale businesses, and To establish if there is a significant relationship between banking services and development small scale businesses. The study adopted a descriptive survey and correlational design. The sample size comprised of 285 respondents, who were entrepreneurs owning small scale businesses in Makindye Division Kampala, and had bank accounts for their businesses. The main findings showed that majority of the respondents were female with 57% and those between 20 -39 years 84%. Most of the respondents had held bank accounts for more than five years. The findings also showed that majority of the respondents had had the account for five years and above. The results indicate that there is a significant relationship between banking services and the level of business development in terms of expansion and job creation. This was however not the case in terms of sales. Based on the findings, the researcher recommends that banks should have a department which caters for small scale business owners by offering advisory and other professional guidance regarding their businesses. These banks’ employees should make their clients feel part and parcel of the bank, by finding out their reactions first before implementing the policies. The bdrlks should disu offer training to their clients on how to increase investments. This would enhance the bank and the customer relationship. | en_US |
