Research Report on “Microfinance Products and Services: Current State and Development Solution”
Microfinance institutions (MFIs) worldwide and in Vietnam are strong in providing products and services suitable to poor and low-income customers as their vision, strategy and business model from inception focus on this market segment. However, along with the robust development of information technology, digital financial services, agent banking as well as the trend and strategy of financial inclusion development across the globe and in Vietnam, these strengths have gradually become weaknesses.
