  5. Market position State of the Microfinance Industry • Dynamic development over the last 5 years • Rapid professionalisation of top institutions • Increasing access to international capital markets for top institutions (although still requiring support by public institutions) • Mushrooming of wholesale investors in debt and (increasingly) equity • BUT: Concentration in ~100 institutions, usually not more than 1-3 per country >> Industry is far from mainstreaming on supply side

  6. Market position Conclusions • Management capacity is the key bottleneck • Size matters: MFIs with access to international networks will be the winners • From an investor‘s point of view, there will be increasing competition for the top MFIs >> A strategic link between management capacity and solvent investors will be the key advantage for both the MFI and the investors >> This is why AccessHolding was established
