9 BG MFI Saving Product Based on the interest and profile of the clients BG MFI has designed THREE types of saving Products 1. Saving Account(Hirko) This saving product can be saved and w/drawn at anytime the clients dd. The initial saving amt to open the acct is 10birr & can add more To generate interest income the saving bal. should be more than 50br and stays 30days. It has 6% interest per annum. Any Depositor( Individual and formal groups) can use this saving prt. It has its own Passbook as any financial Institutions like Banks Preferable for those who get regular income. etc Buusaa Gonofaa MFI has Dedicated to Change the Livelihood of the Poor!!! 9
10 BG MFI Saving Prdt Cont` 2. Planned Time Deposit(Iqubii) This is the saving products that can be saved with the same interval of time and the same amt up to the due date of saving. Its frequency of saving is in weekly, bi-weekly and monthly basis. It should be saved at least for six months period. Withdrawal is possible on the due date of saving period. Initial Deposit balance should not be less than 50 birr. It generates interest rate of 6%,7% and 8% per annum based on the length of the deposit period. If not w/drawn on time it will be TR to saving acct and generate int. accrdly. Good saving option for those who have regular income depositors & employee 10
11 BG MFI Saving Cont` 3. Time Deposit (Qusannoo Abdi) This is a fixed term saving that w/drawn on the maturity date of savings. It is impossible to add an other saving amount on this deposit. I t has saved for at least 6 months and above. The least initial deposit balance is 100 birr and above. Much better interest income than other saving products. Interest rate 8%,9% and 10% per annum for those who deposit for 6-12, and 24and above months respectively. Good saving product for those who directly engaged on farming and fattening activities. 11
12 Benefit of Saving vs Credit No Saving Services Credit Services Own Money that can get when need arise Service is based on the full interest of the depositor. Totally benefits the one who saved - No harms Someone's money that not get based on your need Service is based on the policy and procedure of the financial instit. May or may not benefited the one who access it 4 Contributes to build an asset -Either to increase or decrease the existing asset of the borrowers 5 It has financial Benefits as it earns interest income It has financial cost as it incur interest cost on borrowed money 6 It builds personal confidence of the Depositors. Filled with risk of temptation (if not invested on IGA) 7 Continual financial services Service is quit in case of default Buusaa Gonofaa MFI has Dedicated to Change the Livelihood of the Poor!!! 12
13 Financial Service Challenges Getting the target and feasible clients for the services Loan management skill of the borrowers like using the borrowed money for consumption purpose Unwillingness of the clients to attend regular meeting schedule. Default not timely repayment as per agreement Lack of trust on saving Liquidity problem to address clients timely etc MFI mkt is contaminated with different NGO`s and Donors funds Farmers have not side business from w/c it pays the loan(rf) Farmers have not access market to sell the production in reasonable price. 13
14 Challenges. Double Loan from different MFI`s operating in the area(b/s of lack of info. Sharing among the MFI`s) Low culture and awareness of Farmers to use Modern Technology(Full Package scheme) as per the strategy of the Government. Lack of Diversified Agricultural Activities in the Area( b/s of the Nature of the Ecology) to expand the operation. Natural Disaster such as Drought, Flood and s/t unseasonal rainfall w/c enfoces the farmers to default the loan Lack of sufficient Agricultural Input ( Fertilizers and Selected seed) to disburse the loan as per contract agreement with farmers. Lack of Seed variety as per the demand of the farmers Buusaa Gonofaa MFI has Dedicated to Change the Livelihood of the Poor!!! 14
15 Lessons Learnt We assured the effectiveness and sustainability of financial services for Agricultural Activities in Rift valley area. We highly observed the positive impact of Financial services on the livelihood of the poor household The possibility of changing the mind setting of the poor farmer from expecting grant to become productive using financial services The possibility of Graduating the poor farmers under PSNP Program We are convinced the slogan of UNITY IS STRENGTH doing with partners having the same social mission(ide) We learnt success through challenge.. 15
16 The Way Forward BG need to take an initiative to reduce double loan among d/t financial institution that operate in the area. Continues to work with d/t Government bodies, NGOs and other stakeholders that strives to the livelihood of the poor farmers To address clients with Reasonable Loan size based on their capacities, past credit history and nature of the activities(specially engaged on Irrigation) activities in near future Exhaustively exerting our time and Man power on educating financial education for illiterate people like Saving and Debt Management. We need to expand Rain fed input Agricultural loan in new areas. 16
17 Recommendation and Conclusion The Government body should give particular attention on financial awareness of the community Government officials should keep up their support when clients do not need to repay the loan as per the loan agreement. The concerned input suppliers should avail the input as per the need of the farmers as:- - In due times and places - Based on the need of the farmers in terms of quantity, quality and seed varieties 17
