The loans provided are small in amount and directed for entrepreneurial ventures.

1.2  Statement of the Problem

 

Microfinance constitute the facilitation  of financial services to meet  the needs of low income individuals  such as micro-entrepreneurs, through  the provision of small loans (microloans), small savings deposits (micro-savings), micro-insurance and enhancing simple payments services required by micro-entrepreneurs and  economically active poor people who cannot gain access to    financial services provided by the formal banking sector.(USAID, 2000).The inability of the poor and small entreprenuers to access conventional banking services precipated the formulation of the microfinance policy to address the financial need of this poor and vulnerable segment of the society particularly the women. The loans provided are small in amount and directed for entrepreneurial ventures. The loans are collateral free and grouped based and mostly  direct to women entrepreneur, generally with low interest charges  or interest free with a focus on women and poor clients The focus being shifted to women is due to their ability to handle meager amount of money profitably (UNITUS, 2000).The research therefore seek to investigate the impact of micro financing on the performance of women entreprenuers in kaduna state

 

 Several years after the policy on micro financing, a greater number of the poor and vulnerable poor segment are yet to fully maximize the benefit of financial services of obtaining micro credit facility for entrepreneurial businesses. It is pertinent to note that while the microfinance bank are willing to disburse funds to this segment they are however constraint by limited financial resources to meet the large number of client wanting to obtain micro credit. Savings deposit is low due to the nature of the activities carried out by the segment. Consequently there is the need to re-appraise the activities of micro financing on the performance of women entreprenuers with a view to determing the challenges Confronted by micro finance banks towards the effective delivery of their constitutional mandate to provide financial service to the economically active but poor segment of the society particularly the women. Therefore the problem confronting the research is to determine the impacts of micro financing on the performance of women entrepreneurs in Kaduna state
