| Summary: | In 2011, cross-border funders committed
at least US$25 billion to microfinance or financial services
for the poor. CGAP research shows that levels of
cross-border funding continued to increase despite the
global financial crisis and strained national budgets, but
at a much lower growth rate, indicating that cross-border
funders were adjusting to the new environment. The analysis
of the global trends in the microfinance funding landscape
in this brief is based on data from CGAP's surveys of
cross-border funders. |
