Microfinance Engagements of the Extreme Poor Insights from 小额信贷业务的极端贫困的见解

Microfinance Engagements of the Extreme Poor: Preliminary Highlights from Case Studies Imran Matin Research and Evaluation Division BRAC Abstract Discussions about microfinance and the extreme poor in Bangladesh have been one of extremes. Up until about the early 1990s, the term ‘poorest of the poor’ was an important component of the microfinance lingo. In the recent years however, the pendulum has swung the other way, with most experts arguing that microfinance largely does not reach the extreme poor, and some experts arguing that microfinance in general is not for the extreme poor. However, these views are predominantly derived from a homogeneous and static notion of (extreme) poverty, and a particular way of defining the role, scope, and future of microfinance. The point of departure for this research is that microfinance engagements of the extreme poor are complex and strategic in ways that are different from that of other poverty groups. Participation in itself tends to be less stable, but more importantly, interlinked with non-financial factors that constitute the overall survival and coping strategies of the extreme poor. Appearances can thus be deceptive and digging deeper becomes very important. In this research, I intend to explore in detail the complexities of microfinance engagements of the extreme poor so that we can better define the role and scope of microfinance in the overall development strategy for addressing extreme poverty. This paper is a first exercise in this exploration. Based on a few case studies, I intend to highlight a number of themes that emerge as important in understanding the nuances of microfinance engagements of the extreme poor. The next step will be to develop possible testable hypotheses from these themes that will be explored in the second stage of the research. I. Introduction: The Extreme Poor and Microfinance Mainstream development programmes, such as microfinance, largely leave out the extreme poor. T
