Description
Abstract: Financing has been identified as one of the most common issues confronting SMEs and is frequently regarded as one of the most significant hurdles in starting enterprises by Tribal entrepreneurs. The preference ranking of various working capital sources is analysed using WASPAS and AHP (MCDM) methods. The study's findings present some new data favouring the financial sources for working capital. It is found that tribal entrepreneurs in SMEs obtained funding through more informal and traditional sources of financing, such as bootstrap financing, than other financial resources. The study's results will be valuable to financial institutions that fund SMEs and policymakers.
