Based on data of EU Craft and SME barometer (UEAPME), National Bank of Serbia, interviews of micro enterprises, EMN survey report, in the paper are discussed issues of the practice of micro financing and lenders experience, as well as the micro- financial services demand of specific target groups: small enterprises, entrepreneurs, small farmers, social enterprises, and supply potentials, and typical providers. The contribution of the paper are assessments on potential of the Serbian banking market, especially when it comes to micro-businesses and farmers in the rural areas which are underserved by other banks, and suggested essentials for a successful further market building in the purpose of SMEs development.
