Abstract
ADEMI offers frequent repayment options, requires no collateral, reduces paperwork and transaction time and costs, and offers frequent contact with advisers at the client"s business or home. Loan structures differ for individuals and for solidarity groups, the latter being composed of both sexes; 14% of microenterprise clients and 43% of solidarity group members are women, but women are not specially targeted as potential clients and are less actively recruited.
