It started informally in the mid-1990s to help meet the economic requirements of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and began a formalized alliance of what would become the AMFA in 2001. It utilizes “knowledge management, policy advocacy, and technical services” to “advance the interests of the microfinance community ” in Azerbaijan. Its three “strategic pillars” are: “innovative products and services, continuing education and industry expertise.” AMFA also offers services to improve financial management at medium-sized and larger institutions.
