Microfinance in Europe: Survey report 2024
The European Microfinance Network (EMN) and the Microfinance Centre (MFC) are pleased to present the 12th edition of their flagship publication: Microfinance in Europe: Survey Report. This long-standing survey remains the leading source of data and analysis on the microfinance sector in Europe.
For the sixth consecutive survey edition, EMN and MFC have joined forces to capture data from the vast majority of European microfinance institutions, providing the most comprehensive dataset available on the sector today.
This edition focuses on the types of businesses reached by microfinance and highlights the social performance of business loans, along with the impact measurement approaches adopted by MFIs. It offers valuable insights into how these institutions contribute to social inclusion, entrepreneurship, and local development.
The report serves as an important policy tool, supporting evidence-based decision-making for policymakers working to strengthen financial inclusion and the social economy. It also functions as a benchmarking reference for MFIs, helping them evaluate their performance and position within the wider European landscape.
