How can proactive risk management contribute to MFIs’ long-term sustainability?

This toolkit presents a framework for anticipating and managing risk in microfinance institutions with a particular emphasis on new product development. The discussion is tailored to senior managers who play the most active role in setting the parameters and guidelines for managing risk.

This toolkit can be used by MFIs in all stages of new product development; it is also possible to apply these tools retrospectively to see if risks are revealed that were not identified at the time of a product’s development.

The complete toolkit can be downloaded from MicroSave’s website at: www.microsave.org .
