Zhu Hongren, chief engineer under the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said the financial facing small and micro enterprises has undergone positive changes in recent years.
Official data show that the loans small and micro enterprises received as of the end of October accounted for 21.7 percent of the country's total loans this year, marking the third year of annual growth.
