The role of Islamic microfinance institutions could have been tested and overcome the economic crisis for some time and even strengthened. UMKM including business units that rely heavily on LKMS in the long term for the good of the Indonesian economy, it is not surprising that many people are looking at LKMS, but the attention given has not fully addressed the fundamental issues facing LKMS so that it can really strengthen and develop a financing institution for UMKM are mainly small communities. Judging from the potential and funding sources that have been running, in fact LKMS has adequate funding in serving its customers and in the management of funds based on sharia. If the management of funds made by Islamic financial institutions can coordinate with each other, then it can be used as a great force.
