Mercy Corps Microfinance Network

In the 10 years since it began offering microfinance services, Mercy Corps and its partner institutions have achieved a remarkable record, disbursing more than $1.4 billion in loans to more than 1.3 million clients while maintaining outstanding repayment rates – in most cases, higher than 98 percent.

It should come as no surprise to those familiar with the world of microfinance that more than half of our clients have been women – women whose dreams of a better life for themselves, their children, and their families are coming true thanks to their own hard work. Working in challenging environments from Afghanistan to Guatemala, we have developed a network of a dozen retail microfinance institutions. Most have evolved to commercial viability. And in building them, Mercy Corps has gained invaluable practical understanding of the financial needs of the urban and rural working poor.
