ASSESSMENT OF INSTITUTIONAL PERFORMANCE AND SUSTAINABILITY OF SELECTED MICROFINANCE INSTITUTIONS: A DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS APPROACH
YITAY ELEMA BORU
In this study attempts are made to evaluate the institutional performance and sustainability of six MFIs employing conventional financial performance and sustainability indicators and non-parametric DEA-based malmquist total factor productivity index model. The study period covered 2003 to 2009. DEA-based malmquist total factor productivity index model is applied on panel data to derive total factor productivity growth under both production and intermediation approach which could be decomposed as technological change and technical efficiency change.
The results of conventional financial performance and sustainability indicators revealed that all MFIs‘ outreach performance has increased during the study period. Despite the increase in outreach performance, it is difficult for the institutions to operate and expand without subsidies.
