Overview
Key facts
The Certified Expert in Microfinance course from Frankfurt School of Finance and Management prepares you for the challenge of serving your clients in changing and increasingly competitive environments.
The microfinance sector is dynamic and rapidly changing. To be able to cope with the challenges of growth, complexity and competition, microfinance practitioners must be equipped with up-to-date knowledge and tools to strengthen their MFIs.
Education
- The CEMF course provides a detailed introduction into the topic of microfinance.
- It not only presents international trends and best practices with respect to microcredits, microsavings and microinsurance, but also dwells into the challenges and complexity of managing a microfinance institution.
- Most MFIs operate in an increasingly competitive environment that is quickly changing (e.g. through mobile banking), where both social and financial performance need to be closely monitored to correctly influence management decisions.
- Participants will thus learn how to cope with the specific challenges that microfinance institutions face today.
