CERMi’s mission is to promote academic research in order to support the key stakeholders in the microfinance industry: NGOs, cooperatives, donors, investment funds and financial institutions, and to develop suitable frameworks to critically examine existing microfinance practices.
CERMi aspires to become a leading academic centre in microfinance. Toward this end, it will establish long-term partnerships with universities from the South which are also engaged in microfinance research. CERMi plans to play an active role in research missions abroad, in partnership with donors and microfinance actors in the field.
