OUR IMPACT
Microfinance, responsibly delivered, is a powerful tool to increase the inherent resilience and economic empowerment of people living in poverty.
We believe that we can achieve sustainable impact at scale by listening and learning directly from the people we aim to serve.
We started to measure our social performance and desired client-level outcomes from 2019 using Lean Data℠ methodology on five social outcome focus areas of BRAC International Microfinance: quality of life, financial resilience, women’s economic empowerment, self-employment and livelihood opportunities, and household welfare. This regular annual exercise complements our Social Performance Management and Client Protection initiatives, and enables us to set targets and define strategies to reach more people living in poverty to achieve long-term impact.
The fourth impact survey was completed in 2022 using Lean Data℠ methodology in partnership with 60 Decibels. All respondents were women.

Our Story
Investing In the Power of Hope
Access to financial services is a critical component to solving some of the world’s most persistent problems such as poverty and inequality. BRAC supports women across Asia and Africa, with access to responsible financial services, unlocking their entrepreneurial spirit and strengthening their financial resilience. By partnering with women, we are building a world where everyone has the opportunity to realise their potential.

I am now a self sufficient independent woman. The women in my microfinance group and I made it out of poverty. We are not rich, but we are self-sustaining. Money is not a big issue.”
