Client Targeting Centre


Welcome to CGAP's Client Targeting Centre

The fundamental challenge of microfinance is to reach ever increasing number of poor people through sustainable financial institutions. However, ensuring that poor people, especially those who are very poor, do receive access to financial services, is often difficult. Many MFIs have therefore resorted to "targeting" to ensure that the poor and the very poor are indeed served. The CGAP Client Targeting Centre has been designed to provide information on the targeting tools that MFIs use, their experiences and an assessment of their successes.
