The Future of Microcredit: At Home and Abroad
For more than 30 years, small loans have been making a big difference in developing countries. Now, some suggest microfinance institutions (MFIs) could make a strong impact by focusing on US-based entrepreneurs. We look at microcredit's evolution, hear why some worry that success stories may be overblown, and learn how lessons from abroad might be applied to local small businesses.
