This research found that from 169 BKD used as setting in this research, only 21 BKD have efficiency in finance performance and 73 BKD in general performance. In the future, microfinance organizations (BKD) need innovation especially in the system which originated in developing countries where it has successfully enabled extremely impoverished people to engage in self-employment projects that allow them to generate an income and, in many cases, begin to build wealth and exit poverty. Due to the success of microcredit, many in the traditional banking industry have begun to realize that these microcredit borrowers should more correctly be categorized as pre-bankable; thus, microcredit is increasingly gaining credibility in the mainstream finance industry and many traditional large finance organizations are contemplating microcredit projects as a source of future growth.

Summary
Kajian tentang perekonomian pedesaan tidak dapat mengabaikan pelaku ekonomi masyarakat pedesaan yang umumnya berskala mikro dan kecil. Keterbatasan usaha kecil dan mikro dalam mengakses lembaga perbankan formal merupakan potensi pasar yang sangat besar yang bisa menjadi ladang garapan LKM. Sesuai dengan hasil kajian Direktorat Pembiayaan (2004), maka agar tercapai hasil yang optimal dalam pembangunan ekonomi pedesaan, sebuah LKM seyogyanya memiliki karakteristik sebagai berikut (1) Tidak menggunakan pola pelayanan keuangan perbankan konvensional, terutama tidak mensyaratkan kolateral dan tidak terdapat proses administratif formal yang menyulitkan, (2) Sasarannya adalah masyarakat miskin dan pengusaha mikro, dimana jasa keuangan yang diberikan dapat disesuaikan dengan karakteristik kelompok sasaran tersebut, (3) Menggunakan pendekatan kelompok, baik dengan ataupun tidak dengan sistem tanggung renteng yang mengedepankan pola hubungan kenal dekat sebagai landasan utama mengelola risiko, (4) lingkup kegiatan LKM dapat mencakup pembiayaan kegatan ekonomi produktif maupun konsumtif, pendampingan dan pendidikan, kegiatan penghimpunan dan bentuk kegiatan lain yang dibutuhkan oleh pengusaha mikro dan masyarakat miskin
