This study aims to diagnose the reality of small and medium enterprises in Algeria and her contribution in development. And to achieve the purpose of study, we analyzed the statistics that it extracted by the annual reports issued by Information Bulletin SMEs Statistics. Also it examines by the National Agency of Employment Support between 1997and 2017. The study revealed that SMEs is one of the modern mechanisms for financing development in Algeria and alternative financing for development, where it has contributed effectively to the absorption of labor, especially at the macro level, where we find that industrial and service enterprises played an important role in net income gross. However, we find that other enterprises don’t contribute to the development process, because it has a serious management problem, mainly; the problem of difficulties of economic feasibility.
