PlaNet Finance is an international non-governmental organization that works to alleviate poverty worldwide through the development of microfinance. Operating in over 60 countries, PlaNet Finance is recognized as one of the fastest growing and most dynamic organizations in the field.
To date PlaNet Finance has helped over 1,500 microfinance institutions and reached more than 10 million people around the world. Microfinance is a means of providing financial services to people lacking access to traditional banking or other sources of capital. These small, non-collateralized loans are used to develop microenterprises and improve the lives of both microentrepreneurs and their communities.
