This book invites aid agencies and governments to consider efficiency as a robust and reliable criterion to guide their decisions on continuing or discontinuing support for microfinance institutions (MFIs) Efficiency helps discriminate between support-worthy and underperforming MFIs with greater accuracy than financial performance alone, irrespective of the overall orientation of MFIs. Some MFIs reach many poor people with on average small transactions, others the more commercially oriented and seek strong financial performance in the shortest term possible Both kinds of MFI are support-worthy as long as they are on or near the efficiency frontier or moving towards it, for a given production function and in a given operating environment.
This study presents the findings of a survey of 45 MFIs operating in 21 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe and Middle East and North Africa. The research and analysis was carried out in the framework of a joint project of the Geneva International Academic Network (GIAN), involving the Institute of Development Studies (IUED), the International Labour Office (ILO), University of Cambridge and the 'University of Geneva, with the ILO acting as coordinating agency.
