Abstract
This study was carried out to understand the social performance of deposit taking and deposit non-taking MFIs, the determinants of MFIs' personnel size and their predictions, the possible determinants of women borrowers of MFIs and their consequences, and the determinants of the transformation of MFIs from deposit nontaking to deposit taking. For this study, a sample size of 90 MFIs i.e. 10 MFIs each from 9 countries, were randomly selected from the MIX Market data set. Descriptive statistics and econometric models were engaged in the study. It was found out that the MFIs staff strength is positively and significantly related with the size of active borrowers. The numbers of women borrowers in MFIs are significantly and positively determined by external borrowings of MFIs and their gross loan portfolio. The probability of transformation of MFIs from non-deposit taking to deposit taking is significantly determined by loan portfolio, borrowings, assets and number of active borrowers of MFIs.
