Sample Organization Chart of an Affiliated EFC Federation Regional Union Supervision and support for the financial institutions (FI) FI FI FI FI FI FI Coordinating Committee Monitoring of budget, financial results and business plan Hiring and oversight EFC Technical Director Credit Committee Personnel
  19. Characteristics of an Affiliated EFC The EFC works for and on behalf of its participating financial institutions : The member can do business with its financial institution and the EFC at the same time: One financial institution can then respond to its personal and professional needs. The EFC’s powers and responsibilities are defined legally and are validated by Board of Directors of the financial institution Managers, Union and Federation are all responsible for global management follow-up of the financial institution
  20. Affiliated EFC: Conditions of success Continuous commitment of the managers Trust relationship between the managers and the supervision structures Commitment to action and openness to change Common vision and shared business objectives Customer-loyalty approach, business development and adequate consulting expertise and techniques EFC visibility and its positioning in the market
