Chi-square was used to determine the relationship between business characteristics of micro-enterprise businesses and loan characteristics to choice of short-term financing. Findings of the study showed that micro-enterprises in selected municipalities of Cavite were primarily managed under the sole proprietorship form of business organization. Most of them were Filipino-owned. The study revealed that the total assets working capital, average sales and expenses as well as the amount of loan, term of payment and discount given to them for their outstanding loans were found significantly related to the choice of short-term financing used by micro-enterprises. Moreover, the study showed that the most common problem encountered by micro-enterprises was the high monthly payment imposed in short-term financing and most of the participants action to this problem was paying credit on time.
