Rating Reports

There are several companies that perform MFI business evaluations & then develop & distribute Rating Reports. The purpose of a rating report is to disseminate the findings from an analysis of the performance & risk of a Microfinance Institution (MFI).

These reports have many benefits, such as:

1) an indispensible tool when analysing an MFI for potential investment or monitoring.

2) an informative business management tool for an MFIs operational advancement

3) an industry tool for learning about & comparing MFI activities

The reports cover operational items such as governance, financial results, profitability & risk, management team, market growth potential, client analysis, services & activities and operational efficiency.
