Microfinance

Why microfinancing is so important to small business

Microfinance—also called "microcredit"—is a way to provide small business owners and entrepreneurs access to capital. Often, these small and individual businesses don't have access to traditional financial resources from major institutions, so it is harder for them to access loans, insurance, and investments that will help grow their business. Essentially, microfinance involves providing loans, credit, access to savings accounts—even insurance policies and money transfers—to the small business owner and entrepreneur.

  1. 01

    Tailoring solutions to meet specific needs

    Microfinance comes with its own set of challenges. Unlike cities, where populations are concentrated in small areas, rural populations are dispersed over large areas with poor infrastructure. It costs more to extend loans to a dispersed population. Transaction and information costs are high. Many poor rural people do not have property rights and land tenure, and often lack collateral to secure loans.

  2. 02

    Helping poor people to help each other

    Donations to your local and global organizations are incredibly important. Many of these organizations rely on donations to survive and serve their communities. Make sure you know where your money is going if you're donating money. You want to be sure that the organization is actually helping people.

  3. 03

    Reaching the Millennium Development Goals

    Support better education for your community and your country. Better education means people who have the life skills and the knowledge that help them realize their full potential and to become productive, interested members of their communities.
