ETİYOPYA’DAKİ MİKROFİNANS KURUMLARININ PERFORMANSI, ZORLUKLARI VE BEKLENTİLERİ

Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2003-2009 yılları arasında 15 örnek MFI kullanarak Etiyopya mikrofinans kurumlarının (MFI) performansını ölçmek ve sektörün zorluklarını ve beklentilerini değerlendirmektir. Kurumların performansları Küçük Kurumsal Eğitim ve Tanıtım Ağı (SEEP Ağı) ve Yoksullara Destek Verme İstişari Grubu (CGAP) tarafından geliştirilen göstergeler ile ölçülmüştür. Araştırmanın bulguları, aktif müşteri sayısı ve brüt kredi portföyü bazında sektörel erişimin azalan oranda arttığını ve kadınların katılımının yüzdesinin sınırlı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca, Etiyopya MFI'larının çoğunun operasyonel olarak kendi kendine yeterli olduğu, ancak finansal olarak sürdürülebilir ve kârlı olmadığı kanıtlanmıştır. Pearson korelasyonuna dayanarak elde edilen bulgulara göre, aktif müşteri sayısı ile operasyonel olarak kendi kendine yeterlilik arasında güçlü bir pozitif ilişki mevcuttur. Etiyopyalı MFI'ların çoğunun grup bazlı kredi vermesi nedeniyle borçluya düşen işletme maliyetini azaltmak ve müşteri sayısını artırmak için bu yöntemi sürdürmeleri iyi olacaktır.

THE PERFORMANCE OF ETHIOPIAN MICROFINANCE INSTITUTIONS, CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS

The objective of this study is measuring the performance of Ethiopian microfinance institutions (MFIs) andassessing challenges and prospects of the sector by using 15 sample MFIs over the period between 2003-2009.The performances of the institutions was measured by the most widely applied performance indicatorsthat is developed by the Small Enterprise Education and Promotion Network (the SEEP Network) andConsultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP). The finding of the study revealed that the sector outreachin terms of number of active client and gross loan portfolio increase at decreasing rate and the percent ofwomen participation is limited. In addition, it is proofed that most of the Ethiopian MFIs are operationallyself-sufficient but not financially sustainable and profitable. Based on the Pearson correlation the studydiscovered that there is a strong positive association between number of active clients and operationallyself-sufficient. Since most of Ethiopian MFIs give group based loan it will be good for them to continue thistradition so as to decrease operational cost per borrower and to increase the number of clients.
