INAFI (International Network of Alternative Financial Services) India
topbanner

Member Organisation

Members of the Inafi India network, particularly development NGOs engaged in addressing poverty through multifarious interventions and one among them is microfinance services. Members don’t run pure financial services institution for delivery rather establish alternative financial institutions based on community ownership such as Self Help Groups (SHGs) and cooperatives and promote bank linkage. Members adopted either microfinance + plus or plus microfinance approach with microfinance preceding other development work or development interventions succeeding microfinance intervention. Members also recognize that the microfinance programmes have been contributing a great deal to the continuity, stability and sustainability of the development operations. What is more, it is building and strengthening social capital. Leveraging social capital generated by microfinance operations has been the distinct feature of the Inafi members’ work for larger development intervention involving health, education, gender empowerment, livelihoods, etc. It is, therefore, not fair nor just to capture only the microfinance numbers on the portfolio which would not be a true reflection of the members work in addressing poverty. It is felt necessary to write about the members work briefly beyond microfinance.
