Two Midi de la MicrofinanceLuxembourg-based NGOs, ADA Microfinance and Grameen Crédit Agricole Foundation, along with Belgium-based Inpulse Investment Manager will present their analysis of the responses to five surveys they have conducted since 2020 regarding how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting microfinance institutions (MFIs).

Among the speakers will be Jacques Afetor, Director of Togo-based MFI Assilassimé, and Eric Campos, Managing Director of the Grameen Crédit Agricole Foundation.

This event, for which you may register at no charge, will be held on June 9, 2021, at noon, central European summer time. The presenters will speak in French, with simultaneous translation to English available.
