Expanding Dr. Yunus' Sphere of Influence

The conclusion of this ‘FocusNote’ on balancing social and financial returns reads as follows:

Better information on social and financial performance of both MFIs (Microfinance Institutions) and MIVs (Microfinance Investment Vehicle) is needed to allow for the most effective allocation of financing. A more efficient capital market that integrates social and financial decisionmaking can help develop a robust microfinance industry that achieves the overall goal of sustainable and responsible financial services for all.
