| Summary: |
Micro-finance institutions in Colombia, which traditionally have been exam- ples of financial inclusion, can contribute to the government’s efforts to re- duce the effects of the armed conflict. Their participation with respect to a special group of individuals who want to rejoin society means they must identify the challenges this effort implies and design financial and non- financial products that do not compromise their equity but are in keeping with the profile of the interested parties. The idea, in this respect, is to replace their activity as participants in the armed conflict with activities involving business enterprises. The article defends the thesis that micro- finance institutions (MFIs), despite their nature as private entities, can support government policies for the post-conflict period by expanding the coverage of the micro-financial services being provided in urban and rural areas. The methodology that was used involves a description and analysis of theoretical elements that support the existence of MFIs and the activities they develop, coupled with collection and analysis of information about the environment in which they render their services. |
