FINCA International

Since 1984, FINCA International (Foundation for International Community Assistance) has provided village banking and other associated loan services to the poor in 24 countries on five continents. Although microfinance has helped to improve income and living standards for millions of families through self-employment, FINCA has found that a majority of its clients’ businesses plateau in terms of growth after taking loans. The business owner does not employ additional people beyond what she can manage on her own; therefore, no new jobs are created.
