Microfinance companies in Philippines, like ASA Philippines Foundation, are closing this gap. Through character-based lending models and community-based lending groups, they enable even the poorest of the poor to access capital for their businesses.

The organisation's prudent approach to screening, delivery and collection, which includes starting repayment before the tenure of the loan is over, has made ASA Philippines shape a successful model which aims to solve some challenges of the Grameen cooperative model.

At ASA, our plans are always guided by our mission and vision. Our presence in communities goes beyond meeting targets—it reflects our commitment to ensuring that no one is left behind.

Microfinance plays a crucial role in the Philippine economy by promoting financial inclusion and reducing poverty. The country is home to numerous microfinance institutions that offer small loans to individuals, particularly those in underserved communities.

ASA Philippines opened its first branch in Camarin in Caloocan before expanding nationwide. It aims to effect social change in communities by helping poor families escape poverty through the provision of microfinancing, which enables people to establish microenterprises.
