In the years since, the bank has continued to grow while delivering a double bottom-line of commercial profitability and positive social impact.

FINCA Armenia’s loan products are noted for the speed and simplicity of approval as well as transparency and personalized and flexible repayment terms.

In 2006, the Central Bank of Armenia registered and licensed the institution as FINCA Universal Credit Organization Armenia, marking its entry into the for-profit financial services market. In 2018, in accordance with FINCA Impact Finance’s digital transformation strategy, FINCA Armenia began taking active steps to digitize its offering of financial products and services. The institution launched an Online Loan Application (OLA) system enabling clients to apply for loans using a smartphone, computer or tablet, all without visiting a branch.

FINCA Armenia now serves more than 35,000 clients through both digital and traditional banking channels: a network of 38 branches located throughout the country and through its emerging OLA system.

FINCA Haiti S.A.

FINCA Haiti S.A. (“FINCA Haiti”) is one of the longest-operating FINCA institutions, opening its doors in 1989 in the town of Les Cayes. In its early days, the institution exclusively offered village banking loans. To many loan recipients, this represented their first access to credit. Over the next three decades, FINCA Haiti gradually expanded to serve clients throughout the country with both village banking and individual loans.

When the 2010 earthquake devastated Haiti and affected many FINCA Haiti clients, the institution responded by strengthening outreach to support entrepreneurs across the country. It launched a renewed growth strategy in 2012 and now serves more than 50,000 clients through both branches and branchless banking channels.

FINCA Haiti offers four primary credit products: village banking loans; individual loans; small- and medium-enterprise loans; and agriculture loans. Each responsible finance product is tailored to the client’s specific needs.

In 2015, FINCA Haiti partnered with MonCash, an e-wallet solution, to offer mobile loan repayment. Mobile banking now accounts for a significant proportion of transactions processed by the institution. It is also crucially important in a country where only one-in-three adults currently have access to a bank account.

FINCA Haiti is devoted to serving the people most in need of responsible finance. Nearly 90 percent of clients are women. In addition to loans, it offers national and international money transfers and financial literacy training.

In 2018, FINCA Haiti reached two major milestones: its loan portfolio surpassed 1 billion Haitian gourdes (USD 12 million); and it reached 50,000 customers for the first time, making it one of the leading responsible finance institutions in Haiti.

FINCA Kosovo

FINCA Kosovo launched in February 2000, less than a year after the end of an armed conflict that cost thousands of lives and displaced more than one million people. With support from USAID, the microfinance institution opened its doors to advance the mission of expanding financial inclusion to help individuals, families and communities recover from the war.

Adapting to the needs of a growing market, FINCA Kosovo expanded its initial offering of agriculture and small business loans to provide a full range of loan products. The institution now offers women entrepreneur loans, home improvement loans, vehicle registration loans and life improvement loans.

Clients can also receive support from the organization’s Contact Center. FINCA Kosovo was the first FINCA Impact Finance subsidiary to launch Digital Field Automation (DFA), which utilizes cloud-based tablet software to quickly review loan applications and disburse funds. In 2018, the institution launched Centralized Credit Underwriting to enable faster, more accurate and more efficient credit decisioning.

In addition to providing responsible financial products and services, the institution promotes financial and commercial literacy. It operates a wide-ranging training program aimed at ensuring clients and the wider public have the knowledge and skills needed to make informed financial decisions and effectively manage their businesses.

In 2016 FINCA Kosovo received Smart Certification for its long-standing and sustained commitment to upholding the Smart Campaign’s seven Client Protection Principles for responsible banking, which include: appropriate product design and delivery; prevention of over-indebtedness; transparency; responsible pricing; fair and respectful treatment of clients; privacy of client data; and mechanisms for complaint resolution.

FINCA Microfinance Bank (Tanzania)

 

FINCA MICROFINANCE BANK formed its first Village Bank in Mwanza in 1998, bringing its model of group lending to Tanzania. In the years since, over a million customers have gained access to responsible financial products including credit, savings and money transfers.

In January 2013, FINCA Microfinance Bank began offering savings products to the public. This followed a historical event where FINCA became the first MFI to be granted a license by the Bank of Tanzania, allowing the institution to accept deposits from the public and to carry out banking services as a microfinance institution. The issuance of a license by the Central Bank was an important step toward financial inclusion in the country as it helped to bring tens of thousands of Tanzanians, mainly from rural areas, into the formal banking sector.

Today, the breadth and reach of our responsible financial services continues to grow and evolve to meet new needs and new opportunities. FINCA Microfinance Bank has gone beyond traditional microfinance by leveraging the power of new technology, such as mobile phones and agent banking, to make banking more affordable and accessible. 56% of FINCA’s customers now transact through one of the 140 agents and 23% transact via mobile financial services. FINCA Microfinance Bank is the only bank that offers an opportunity for customer to open a Savings Account within five minutes using special tablets through the Bank’s remarkable innovation known as Digital Field Automation (DFA).

As we look towards the future, FINCA Microfinance Bank will continue to improve our services. We are re-engineering and streamlining our credit and customer service processes to lower costs and to make it easier for clients to do business with us. We are fostering a culture of innovation, where all employees are encouraged to lead change.

FINCA believes that the future of expanding access to responsible financial services lies in both technological innovations and delivering an exceptional customer experience.

FINCA Zambia is composed of 14 branches spanning Lusaka and the Central, Southern, Eastern and Copperbelt provinces.

FINCA Zambia is committed to expanding access to responsible financial services for micro-, medium- and small-scale entrepreneurs. Our products are tailored to the needs and aspirations of our customers, following from our customer-centric approach to product and service development.

In addition to traditional banking services, financial education is key to our product and service offering. In 2012, the Bank of Zambia issued FINCA Zambia a license to take deposits. This milestone allowed us to extend our reach and become a one-stop banking solution.

Our clients can now manage savings, credit, payments and remittances all in one place. In 2015, we became the first MFI in Zambia to venture into agent banking when we launched “FINCA Express”, our third-party agent-banking model.

Today, FINCA Zambia offers agent banking from 70 locations across the country. We now process more than 70% of our client transactions via FINCA Express. Our banking agents use biometric identification at the point-of-sale, another first in Zambia that makes banking both more convenient and more secure.

This innovation allows customers to bank closer to their businesses and homes—eliminating the need to travel long distances to visit a brick-and-mortar bank branch. FINCA Zambia is focused on digital innovation, strategic partnerships and trust-based customer relationships as the key pillars of our future success.
