Microfinance Institutions: Does Capital Structure Matter? AgEcon
Bogan, Vicki.
Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) have risen to the forefront as invaluable institutions in the development process. Nevertheless, capital constraints have hindered the expansion of microfinance programs such that the demand for financial services still far exceeds the currently available supply. Moreover, it is observed that microfinance organizations have had various degrees of sustainability. Thus, the question of how best to fund these programs is a key issue. Recognizing the potential of microfinance in the development process, this paper examines the existing sources of funding for MFIs by geographic region, and explores how changes in capital structure could facilitate future growth and improve the efficiency and financial sustainability of MFIs....

Scope Economies of Lending and Collecting Deposits in Microfinance Institutions AgEcon
Hartarska, Valentina M.; Parmeter, Christopher F..
While economies of scope of lending and mobilizing deposits in banking are justified theoretically (Diamond, 1984) and found empirically (see Saunders, 1999), in microfinance, the existence and the magnitudes of scope economies has not been investigated. We use a semi parametric smooth coefficient model to estimate these economies using the largest publicly available dataset of over 2,800 annual observations from MFIs across the world. We accommodate the outreach objective of Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) by measuring outputs as the number of clients (borrowers and savers) rather than the traditional volume of loans and deposits and compare the results from the two cost functions. We find substantial scope economies of 47 percent on average. The results...

Microfinance for Agricultural Firms- Credit Access and Loan Repayment in Tanzania AgEcon
Weber, Ron; Musshoff, Oliver.
On the example of a commercial microfinance institution (MFI) in Tanzania this paper investigates first whether agricultural firms have a different probability to get a loan and whether their loans are differently volume rationed than loans to non-agricultural firms. Second, we analyze whether agricultural firms repay their loans with different delinquencies than non-agricultural firms. Our results reveal that agricultural firms face higher obstacles to get credit but as soon as they have access to credit, their loans are not differently volume rationed than those of non-agricultural firms. Furthermore, agricultural firms are less often delinquent when paying back their loans than non-agricultural firms. Our findings suggest that a higher risk exposition...
