The main goal of micro-credit programs is to compensate for the inadequacies of regular financial institutions by providing small loans in nontraditional economic sectors. Flexible repayment procedures and reasonable interest rates are features of the program. A small amount of money can contribute significantly to poverty alleviation, as attested to by the many successes.
While there is still room for growth, financial institutions, if appropriately managed, can still generate operational profits and where the banking environment is not mature, development organizations should work to strengthen the banking system before implementing loan programs. One business entity playing a role in this regard is CRESCO project finance.
