About the Course
Microfinance institutions (MFIs) and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are essential drivers of financial inclusion, entrepreneurship, and economic growth. However, limited access to affordable and long-term capital continues to restrict their ability to expand lending activities and serve emerging markets. The Innovative Securitization Strategies for Microfinance and SME Portfolios Training Course provides participants with practical knowledge and strategic approaches for using securitization to unlock funding, strengthen liquidity, and scale inclusive finance initiatives.
This specialized training course explores how microfinance and SME loan portfolios can be transformed into investable securities, enabling financial institutions to access new sources of capital while managing credit exposure and improving balance sheet efficiency. Participants will learn how securitization structures can support portfolio growth, risk diversification, capital optimization, and sustainable lending expansion.
Through practical case studies and international examples, participants will examine successful microfinance and SME securitization models, evaluate portfolio performance, analyze risk factors, and develop strategies for creating scalable and investor-friendly structured finance solutions.
