Live Blog of the IPA - Financial Access Initiative Conference

Here is some blog coverage of the recently concluded IPA - Financial Access Initiative Conference where some of CMF's work was presented.

Of particular interest to me was Professor Morduch's point about competition in micro finance. Working in West Bengal, we see this issue everyday, with over 20 MFIs operating in Kolkata and surrounding districts: Is competition benefiting the industry? Clients? MFIs? Or will it just lead to client poaching and greater cycles of indebtedness?
