A dialogue on the future of microfinance and international development

Marc Labie and Jonathan Morduch

Mondes en développement, 2022, vol. n° 199-200, issue 3, 419-434

Abstract: In this dialogue, Jonathan Morduch is interviewed by Marc Labie to identify the challenges that microfinance and financial inclusion policies must face. Over the last fifty years, microfinance has sometimes been overestimated and sometimes underestimated. What has been learned over that period shows that being too simplistic is often inconclusive. Financial inclusion policies and practices have a role to play in order to help poor households facing the challenges of daily life. Reviewing the experience of the microfinance industry, this dialogue tries to pinpoint the key issues to keep in mind for such an objective.
