MICROFINANCEA PROMISING INVESTMENT THEME

Driving forces:

Globalization: benefits are not equally distributed – rich countries benefit more than poorer nations

Number of people that live in poverty is increasing: 3 billion people live on less than USD 2 a day

Access to capital is a key factor for economic development

Global players are expected to accept broader responsibilities

2005: UN Year of Microcredit

Microfinance is a need we address as a financial intermediary to improve living conditions in developing countries

Many HNWIs believe wealth also brings about responsibilities -> we enable them to act on this
