  2. INTRODUCTION • CARD MRI Vision : CARD MRI is a world-class leader in microfinance and community-based social development undertakings that improve the quality of life of socially and economically challenged women and families towards nation building.

  3. CARD MRI Mission : CARD MRI is committed to : - empower socially and economically challenged women and families through continuous access to financial, microinsurance, educational, livelihood, health and other capacity-building services that eventually transform them into responsible citizens for their community and the environment - enable the women members to gain control and ownership of financial and social development institutions - partner with appropriate government agencies, private institutions and people and community organizations to facilitate achievement of mutual goals

  4. WHY DID CARD DECIDE TO GO INTO SME BANKING? The Issues • Successful and growing micro businesses have outgrown the service and product offerings of CARD NGO and/or CARD Bank Inc. • Maximum loan disbursed to micro’s is PHP150,000 or about $3,500 (recently been increased to PHP300,000 or about $7,000, if MFIs comply with requirements). • Banks will not lend to micro’s on clean basis – ask for real property as security. CARD’s Solution • Expand CARD’s offerings to address the larger needs of expanding micro businesses – with new products and services. • Be able to grant loans of up to PHP5 million in value (about $116,000) using more appropriate credit evaluation methodology. • Cash flow based lending so that borrowers are not necessarily required to have hard collateral.

  5. The CARD SME BANK, INC.- A Thrift Bank • Established in July 2011 • Main Goal “ A regular thrift bank butwith an extra-ordinary objective of eradicating poverty (especially in the rural areas) by pushing and providing incentives to emerging SMEs in the agricultural sector and to countryside businesses with an end-goal of creating wealth and generating employment in the community” • Preferred Target Market - microfinance graduate clients (CARD clients) - untapped/underserved rural SMEs (non-CARD clients)
