Microfinance or microcredit is a banking service offered to unemployed or low-income individuals without access to other financial services. This service enables people to safely take on reasonable small business loans through ethical and legal banking sources. The World Bank estimates that over 500 million people have benefited from microfinance-related activities. Government initiatives encourage establishing microfinance institutions and services, and the rising availability of microfinance services in digital and mobile-based payment models are driving market development. However, surging cases of fraud in microfinancing services and strict regulations on microfinance concerning reserve requirements, loan loss provisions, and loan documentation impede the expansion of microfinance. With funding accessible to microfinance startups aiming to develop new software based on AI & Big Data and government rules easing with public awareness and set guidelines on the services, the popularity of microfinance is expected to increase. The coming years are also expected to witness a potential amalgamation of blockchain technology and microfinance services.
Regional Insights
Microfinance is widely adopted in Asian countries of China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, India, and Bangladesh, owing to their national strategies to raise investments for small-scale businesses and farmers. Most large and established microfinance companies in Asia have transformed into small finance banks with access to deposits and greater operational leverage. The microfinance sector in Europe is diverse, majorly driven by the increasing number of NGOs, NBFIs, and cooperatives offering various services. In the Middle East & Africa (MEA), microfinance is essential for poverty alleviation and financial inclusion. Many countries in the MEA region lack formal banking systems; hence, there is significant potential for microfinance market growth. Eastern European microfinance institutions are more likely to provide agricultural, personal, and housing loans, while Western institutions offer microenterprise and SME loans and other types of financial services, such as insurance, accounts, and payment services. In the North American context, microfinance entered a phase of institutional strengthening to support the diversification of investments, the increasing and innovative use of new technologies, and the development of several financial and non-financial services.FPNV Positioning Matrix
