MIX Market
The Microfinance Information Exchange, Inc. (MIX)
is the leading business information provider dedicated to strengthening
the microfinance sector. The organization’s core focus is to provide
objective data and analysis on microfinance providers. In doing so, MIX
promotes financial transparency in the industry and helps build the
information infrastructure in developing countries. This addresses a key
challenge for the microfinance industry: the lack of reliable,
comparable and publicly available information on the financial strength
and performance of microfinance institutions as well as their
social impact.
MIX provides detailed financial and social
performance information from microfinance institutions (MFIs), as well
as business information from market facilitators and leading donor
organizations and investors in microfinance. We do this through our
online information exchange MIX Market (www.mixmarket.org)
and through a variety of publications including the MicroBanking
Bulletin and reports and analysis on regional and country level
microfinance sectors.
MIX is a non profit organization incorporated in June 2002, with headquarters in Washington, DC, and regional offices in Peru, Morocco, and India. MIX was founded by CGAP (Consultative Group to Assist the Poor), and is sponsored by Citi Foundation, Deutsche Bank Americas Foundation, IFAD, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and Omidyar Network.
