One way to increase  the outreach of microfinance on a sustainable basis  is to improve both effectiveness and efficiency of  financial service delivery. This book introduces a  conceptual framework of efficiency and effectiveness  analysis that describes the relationship between  components of microfinance programs and the  operating environment. Empirical results from the  institutional and household surveys in Vietnam show  that, on average, microfinance programs can reduce  the input quantity by 25 per cent while maintaining  the current level of outputs. The household survey  revealed that access to microfinance provides  insignificant contribution to the income and  consumption of member households. This works provide  useful insights for donors, governments,  microfinance practitioners and research agencies to  collaboratively make the sector become a more  efficient and effective tool for poverty reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838317618\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConceptual framework and empirical evidence from Vietnam\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838317618","offer_id":39497093972061,"sku":"9783838317618","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/7d7ce65e-f998-4f28-907b-6fc96310a72e.jpg?v=1775710985","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/the-efficiency-and-effectiveness-of-microfinance-von-son-nghiem","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
