  32. THE POOR IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD CAN EARN RETURNS FROM 29% TO 236% FROM THEIR MICRO-ENTERPRISES Source: Examples from SKS Microfinance in India

  33. FOUR MAIN FACTORS LIE BEHIND HIGH RETURNS FROM MICRO-ENTERPRISES • Process They primarily rely on their own and their family’s labor, which is low-cost, typically more productive than external labor, and usually has an expertise in the chosen activity • Use of family labor Infrastructure costs are low or non-existent (e.g. micro-general stores are run out of the home; pottery wheels are manually operated) • Implications • Low infrastructure costs • Low inputs result in extremely high returns on investment • No taxes and legal costs They operate in the informal economy where taxes and other legal costs are not applicable Even at 25-30%, the interest rate on working capital loans are small (from 1-4%) compared to the income streams and total business costs of poor clients • Capital costs are a small % of total costs

  38. Can the local economy support an infusion of more enterprises? (eg. how many general stores can a village economy support?) • Can the natural resource base support an infusion of more enterprises? (eg. how many more goats can you put in a village?) • Do the poor have the knowledge to take up new enterprises? SOME FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS • Questions • Answers • Truly speaking new ventures are few as borrowers are often refinancing existing activities (replacing high cost working capital with low cost microfinance) as opposed to financing new ventures. • The burgeoning Indian economy can support more enterprises (eg. urban middle class demand for milk and milk products allows significant scope for increased milk supply) • With many enterprises, there is scope for increase without depleting natural resources (eg. goats eat virtually anything and therefore do not significantly deplete environmental resources) • But in some cases (such as irrigation water required for water-intensive crops), there are environmental constraints and these are best addressed by state-led natural resource management • Borrowers often engage in refinancing existing activities in which they already have a core competence • Where borrowers take up new activities, they do so after seeing it successfully undertaken and learning from other borrowers • At the level of micro-enterprise – below Rs. 50,000 - significant knowledge is not required—though movement into small and medium enterprises may require training and other inputs
