The global economic and financial crisis is severely affecting low-income households across the world. New World Bank estimates suggest that 53 million will stay trapped in poverty who would otherwise have escaped its effects.

How are microfinance clients doing? Are they more resilient to the crisis? How are MFIs coping? Are they experiencing liquidity constraints? If so, how is the liquidity shortage distributed by region?

CGAP is conducting a global survey to answer these questions and inform the microfinance industry on the impact of the financial and economic crisis on MFIs and their clients. The survey takes only 5 minutes, and closes on March 23, 2009.

Take the survey.
