Micro and small enterprises sector is considered as very important in growing the economies of many countries, especially the developing nations. In Kenya, the Micro and small enterprises sector is an important contributor to the growth of the economy through facilitation of trade and creation of employment. While various interventions have been made to grow this sector, the enterprises have continued to perform poorly, struggle to survive and a large number die off. This study sought to investigate the effect of mobile credit on performance of micro and small enterprises. The study was to determine the effect of accessibility, the effect of the cost, the effect of mobile credit loan amount and the effect of regulation on performance of micro and small enterprises. The study was anchored on various theories of Resource based view, Dynamic capabilities, Diffusion of technology, Credit rationing, and the asymmetry of information. The study found out that the accessibility of mobile credit, the Loan amount and the regulation have significant positive effect on performance, while the cost of mobile credit has a significate negative effect on the performance of micro and small enterprises.

Basically a natural partnership will achieve its goal if mutual requirements, mutual reinforcement, and mutual benefit can be maintained and made a strong fundamental commitment among partners. Nevertheless the development seems very slow. The cause is the presence of specific and different conditions and structure factors compared to other countries. Along with that, we still encounter various forms of gaps, such as inequality among regions, among income groups, between sectors, among economic actors, and so forth. The next problem is that in business entities including cooperatives and micro and small enterprises in running their business activities requires business partnerships with medium and large enterprises in order to improve business performance and business scale. While on the other hand our economic conditions and structures are not yet fully conducive to fostering partnerships based on purely business considerations or competitive market motivations but the business partnership of the foundation is strong enough in our country's constitution. Partnerships will work if partners are equally benefiting. Our concept of partnership is like that, although in the short term, there is a party or a party benefiting more from the other side.
