Microfinance Strategies: Strategies for developing viable microfinance institutions and sustainable microfinancial services in Asia

Hans Dieter Seibel

No 1996,2, Working Papers from University of Cologne, Development Research Center

Abstract: In most Asian countries including Vietnam, inadequate access of small farmers and microentepreneurs including women and the poor to effective financial services presents a major challenge. Such services must include facilities to deposit microsavings, access to microcredit for production, consumption and emergencies, and the provision of some basic insurance. Only viable financial institutions with sound practices will be able to respond to the evergrowing demand of the microeconomy for such services and to contribute to its growth.
