Are there performance indicators & rating systems for microfinance institutions for regulators and supervisors
Am interested in regulation & supervision of microfinance institutions. I have been a banking regulator/supervisor/inspector for over 16 yrs. Microfinance is increasingly becoming important particularly in developing countries. As a regulator, am seeking
a rating system that will enable me compare the performance and condition of microfinance institutions.
Sure there are performance indicators and specialised firms!
This is indeed a very interesting topic in microfinance. The links below will give you an idea of the actual stage of this industry. I am sure your experience in banking is very appreciable, as long as you are ready to adapt to the micro-level world…
You will see that Fitch is already in and the first were Microfinanza (ITA), Microrate (US), Planet Rating (FR).
