Thought leadership

  • Code of conduct assessment of Microfinance Institutions
  • Risk Management framework for Microfinance Institutions
  • Bank linkage of VSLAs in Africa
  • M2i has been a global pioneer in Code of Conduct Assessment of microfinance institutions.
  • Developed the code of conduct assessment tool and piloted this across eight MFIs under a World Bank-SIDBI project. Later, also harmonised the COCA tools being used by various rating agencies.
  • Code of Conduct Assessment has now become mainstream and is used in assessment of MFIs.
  • Introduced the concept of hidden delinquency to measure credit risks in microfinance institutions following group based methodologies.
  • Under an IFC supported project, developed a risk management framework for the microfinance institutions. Helped several microfinance institutions in implementing this framework. The framework helped many such microfinance institutions transform in to a Small Finance Bank.
  • First to identify risks associated with informal agents in microfinance institutions and suggest corrective measures.
  • Emphasised on the need to diversify loan portfolio early on in the evolution of microfinance.
  • Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs) are community groups of 20-30 economically active women who come together for their savings and loan requirements.
  • On behalf of CARE, M2i prepared a model to link these VSLAs to the financial institutions so as to enable access to wide range of financial products from formal financial institutions using technology.
  • Pioneered in Kenya, the VSLA Bank linkage model is now being used by CARE in over 10 countries of Africa and Asia.
  • Training field cadre has always been a challenge for the institutions on account of lack of standardised training content and capable trainers as well as high costs involved in delivering classroom trainings.
  • M2i developed mobile and video apps and standardised contents for training and assessment of these field staff.
  • Over 45,000 field staff of various financial institutions have been using M2i’s application and content.
  • Internal Audit and Risk Management in most of the organisations have traditionally been done using pen, paper and spreadsheets. This limits effectiveness and decision-making.
  • M2i has developed a software solution to digitise internal audit and risk management functions.
  • This application has improved data management, analytics and decision making and overall control and risk management environment in the organisations where this is being used.

    M2i has developed a model of performing primary research which ensures accurate data collection, rigorous analysis and clear reporting. We call this model M2IDEA. It includes:

  • Optimal sampling strategy in line with research objectives
  • Simple questionnaires that avoid respondent fatigue and fetch accurate data
  • Training enumerators on data collection and data collection pilots
  • Data entry in validated forms to eliminate data-entry errors
  • Appropriate statistical analysis for robust and significant inferences
  • Clear presentation of results
  • Use of technology to train field cadre
  • Technological solution for Internal audit and Risk Management
  • M2IDEA: Measurement, Modelling and Interpretation of Data for Effective Actions
