Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microfinance has long been recognized as having significant potential to create jobs and reduce poverty. But to meet the twin challenges of growth and sustainability, managers of microfinance institutions (MFIs) must not only understand essential management functions: they must also be armed with innovative ideas and strategies to succeed in today's increasingly competitive environment. This book provides a valuable overview of the key management principles necessary to optimize the services of MFIs.Volume 1 examines the markets and marketing of MFIs and captures the different ways that managers can communicate the value of their products and services. It offers strategies to prevent risk from occurring and, if it does occur, explains how to rectify the situation. Practical techniques for allocating costs and determining prices are also highlighted, as well as the importance of plans, budgets and reports. Volume 2 includes chapters on various product options, including savings, insurance, leasing, money transfers, and even grants and nonfinancial services. It also explores how to combine different product menus to serve specific market segments, such as the ultra-poor, youth, women, and small and medium enterprises. It provides specific suggestions to manage diversification, including adapting the institutional culture, redistributing responsibilities, empowering staff, communicating with clients, reengineering systems, and managing change.

This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though traditional microfinance has successfully paved the way for offering financial services to low-income populations without traditional collateral, many microfinance institutions (MFIs) are still reluctant to move into rural areas and agricultural finance, due to the perceived high risks and costs.Daniela Röttger's research demonstrates how MFIs can mitigate risks and costs of lending to smallholder farmers by using a combination of proven traditional microfinance mechanisms while adapting specific loan features and lending mechanisms to the particularities of smallholder agriculture. She systematically compares traditional microfinance risk management mechanisms with agricultural microfinance approaches and identifies successful strategies. For this purpose, eight MFIs providing agricultural finance to smallholder farmers in four countries in East and West Africa (Uganda, Kenya, Benin, Cameroon) were interviewed and their loan features and agricultural lending mechanism were analyzed.The study shows that MFIs can successfully serve smallholder farmers in rural areas. However, the extent of adaptations is reason enough not to commit to such an endeavor lightly. A strong commitment combined with sound in-house knowledge of agricultural value chains and the flexibility to adapt loan terms and lending procedures to the particularities of agriculture are needed to successfully develop and sustain agricultural microfinance.

This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1,00, Wiesbaden University of Applied Sciences, course: International Finance, 69 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Microfinance Institutions (MFI) have left the role of altruistic instruments for donor-assistance and turned into profitable financial institutions and interesting investment opportunities for international financial investors. However, well-intentioned investments can dramatically increase a MFIs risk exposure and institutions without proper risk management can easily be forced into closure in the aftermath of environmental or economical distress. Moreover MFIs operate predominant in developing countries counting for 94% of all natural disasters worldwide and the vulnerability of their clients is exorbitant high due to their establishment in simple accommodation facilities and the strong dependence on agricultural business. Foreign exchange and disaster risks are considered to be two of the most jeopardising threats for MFIs characterised by close interrelations and ignored by the majority of institutions, investors and credit users. This work compiles a holistic risk management approach starting with the sound assessment of foreign exchange and disaster risks with the aid of modern tools such as hazard modelling and the value-at-risk model. Based on the institutions particular risk-bearing capacity different strategies to minimise and transfer these risks have been evaluated. More than twenty methods from operational hedges to innovative instruments like indexed weather derivatives or currency and catastrophe swaps are investigated concerning their availability, applicability, effectiveness and efficiency in the microfinance context. Furthermore this work seeks to design the strategies in a way that overcomes particular obstacles like the Samaritans dilemma to create sustainable security along with

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major source of financing for the poor and no longer a niche industry Over the past four decades, microfinance—the provision of loans, savings, and insurance to small businesses and entrepreneurs shut out of traditional capital markets—has grown from a niche service in Bangladesh and a few other countries to a significant global source of financing. Some 200 million people globally now receive support from microfinance institutions, with most of the recipients in the developing world. In the beginning, much of the microfinance industry was managed by non-governmental organizations, but today the majority of these institutions are commercial and regulated by governments, and they provide safe places for the poor to save, as well as offering much-needed capital and other financial services. Now out of infancy, the microfinance industry faces major challenges, including its ability to deal with mobile banking and other technology and concerns that some markets are now over-saturated with microfinance. How the industry deals with these and other challenges will determine whether it will continue to grow or will be subsumed within the larger global financial sector. This book is based on the results of a workshop at Lehigh University among thirty-four leaders in the industry. The editors, working with contributions from more than a dozen leading authorities in the field, tell the important story of how microfinance developed, how it has met the needs of hundreds of millions of people, and they address key questions about how it can continue to meet those needs in the future.

This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2018 in the subject Economics - Finance, Moi University (Moi University, Kenya; Department of Accounting and Finance), language: English, abstract: The Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) lend small amounts of unsecured loans to poor clients which signify their objectives of improving the social status of the poor while also trying to maximize their returns. Yet, lending by MFIs is a risky venture especially in developing countries because of the susceptibility of their poor clients. This study therefore determined the extent at which strategic credit risk management affect growth of MFIs in the Eldoret Municipality, Kenya. This study used probability clustered random sampling of 12 MFIs in Eldoret municipality to collect primary data and various reports and published work on MFIs between 2010 to 2015 formed the basis of secondary data. The effect of loan default, risk coverage and credit policy on growth of MFIs was measured by profit and outreach respectively. The relationship between of loan default, risk coverage and credit policy and growth was measured using multiple linear regression models. Hausmann test of endogeneity was employed to validate the results. We demonstrate that profit was significantly (p

It also highlights the impact of microfinance on entrepreneurship development in different countries and regions.
