Fabulous micro-business

I met Andy Howells at the Open coffee morning last week.  We talked about the Sirolli Institute and their Enterprise Facilitation method which is very similar to the ‘bottom up’ development method that I experienced while working with AKRSP in Pakistan in 1986.

Andy told me about Kiva.  They have a fine business model - asking rich people like us to contribute a small sum that hey will aggregate and lend to third world individuals who need loans to improve their businesses and lives.

Read this page about the default rate (repayments over98%) and the number of days it takes to get a loan funded (1.01 days average).
