Global Microfinance Market 2016-2020

About Microfinance

Microfinancing is a type of banking service that is provided to low-income individuals or the unemployed or groups of people that do not have any means to obtain any financial services. The goal of microfinance companies is to provide an opportunity for low-income borrowers to become self-sufficient through saving and borrowing money and providing microinsurance. Microfinance institutions charge interests on loans for their lenders like conventional banking operations. However, these interest rates are lower than those offered by normal banks. Microenterprises are considered as the engine of economic growth for a nation to promote equitable growth and development.
