By the way what is Microfinance ?

  • Microfinance means providing very poor families with very small loans (microcredit) to help them engage in productive activities or grow their tiny businesses.
  • Over time, microfinance has come to include a broader range of services (credit, savings, insurance, etc.)
  • The typical microfinance clients are low-income persons that do not have access to formal financial institutions.
