Microfinance being provision of financial services for poor and low-income clients without access to formal financial institutions offered by different types of service providers. In practice, the term is often used more narrowly to refer to loans and other services from providers that identify themselves as “micro-finance institutions” (MFIs). Microfinance refers to a movement that envisions a world in which low-income households have permanent access to a range of high quality and affordable financial services offered by a range of retail providers to finance income-producing activities, build assets, stabilize consumption, and protect against risks. These services include savings, credit, insurance, remittances, payments, and others.
The opportunity of Micro-financing was triggered by the poor performance of the conventional finance sector. The essence was to reach the overwhelming population of the poor in Nigeria and to assist in the drive to alleviate poverty. Barely a million had been provided with some small credit in Nigeria while over 40 million poor are yet to be attended to in terms of supply of microloans. Micro-finance specific institutions in Nigeria have not adequately addressed the gap in terms of credit, savings and other financial services required by the micro entrepreneurs. The existence of Micro-finance institutions in Nigeria was based on the existence of a huge unserved market, over 80 million people with a population of over 150 Million been the most populous country in Africa, two third of Nigeria people are poor and they all depend on microloan for their livelihood.
