The EMN aisbl supports the edition of a biennial survey on microfinance in Europe. The aim is to offer the readers an overall view of the European microfinance market, thus deepening the understanding of core issues such as scale, outreach, sustainability, and social and financial performance.
This seventh edition of the Report on microfinance in Europe provides an overview of the development of the sector in terms of the main institutional characteristics, the microloan portfolio, and the social and financial performance for the period 2014-2015.
The Report is based on data collected through a survey which was carried out as a collaboration between the European Microfinance Network (EMN) and the Microfinance Centre (MFC) for the first time. 149 Microfinance Institutions across 22 European countries contributed to this Report. The institutions surveyed are exclusively members of EMN and MFC or members of National Networks affiliated with EMN.
