Abstract
ABSTRACTPrevious studies indicate that microfinance institutions (MFIs) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) have different operational strategies to MFIs in South Asia (SA). Given the recent emphasis placed on the feasibility of MFIs to achieve the dual goals of outreach and sustainability concurrently, we examine and compare the relationship between sustainability and outreach of MFIs in LAC with MFIs in SA. Our results indicate that trade‐offs exist between outreach and sustainability in both regions. However, the severity of trade‐off is dependent on which goal MFIs decide to focus on in each region.
