4.2.2. Overview of the contribution of SMEs to the economic development of Rwanda

The Government of Rwanda has a vision to become a middle-income country. In order to achieve this goal the medium term Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy states that it must achieve an annual GDP growth rate of 8.1% and increase off-farm employment to 30% by 2012.

The SME sector, including formal and informal businesses, comprises 98% of the businesses and 41% of all private sector employment in Rwanda. Most micro and small enterprises employ up to four people, showing that growth in the sector would create significant private sector non-agricultural employment opportunities. Currently, over 80% of the population is engaged in agricultural production.

The SME sector also has the potential to lower Rwanda's trade imbalance and it is the GoR's vision to increase the role of value-added exports to increase export revenue and reduce the import-export gap. The Government of Rwanda also seeks to reduce its dependency on foreign aid and debt by increasing internal tax revenue. Since 2009, tax revenues have increased largely from the collection of Value Added Tax and the role of SMEs in this cannot be undermined.

Despite the above, there had not been a coordinated policy to address the SME landscape and unlock the underlying potential of SMEs in national development prior to 2010. In order to contribute to achieving increased off-farm employment and tax revenue, the GoR developed and is currently implementing a coherent and well coordinated SME Development Policy. The major aim of the policy is to create an enabling environment for the growth and development of the SME sector in Rwanda.
