- 16. Prof. Muhammad Yunus(Nobel Peace Price 2006) founded the Grameen Bank in the late 1970s in Bangladesh, and scaled profitable microloans to millions of people. Quote: “Our grandchildren will go to museums to see what poverty was like.” (http://www.grameen-info.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=338&Itemid=375)5 Mifos: Ending Poverty One Line of Code at a Time
- 18. Microcredit customers are often women only (by MFI choice); money used for things such as bangles shop, family painting business, etc.
- 19. Loan Officers go out to meet clients, typically (bi)weekly to collect repayments. Customers don’t come to branch offices to deposit or withdraw. LOs bring the collected money to BOs (and, in some cases, stay and sleep there!)
- 20. Typically ~ 98% loan repayment (recovery) rate; e.g. Nirantara in Karnataka/India 99.6% (of 7000 clients with 20’000 Loans)6 Mifos: Ending Poverty One Line of Code at a Time
- 22. Products offered depend on country and respective regulations: In e.g. India today often only Loans, rarely Savings Deposit, but in e.g. the Philippines Savings accounts is more common. Growing trend towards broader financial services, incl.microinsurance (often life, some health), pensions, etc.
- 23. Typically tied to an “educational” programs: Week long Compulsory Group Training (CGT) introduction loaning; also “stories” read out at each group meeting, e.g. reg. infant hygiene.7 Mifos: Ending Poverty One Line of Code at a Time
- 25. Interest rates in the 20–30% range. MFIs typically borrow from traditional banks at around 8% - 12% interest (India); adding on top of it their operating costs, which are higher due to shorter collection cycles and almost “doorstep service”.
- 28. Challenges incl. (e.g. in India) regulatory uncertainty (Maligam report), or overheating with “too many loans” by competing MFIs and increasing defaulting problems (compounded by lack of Gov. ID)8 Mifos: Ending Poverty One Line of Code at a Time
