  12. K2 lessons • Mf can result in over-indebtedness • Space for entry of external actors provided by negligence of MFIs • Competition affects customers – not only MFIs • Relook in to products and processes necessary • Being near the customer is not the same as understanding the customer • Staff incentives to be redesigned • Internal controls to be strengthened • Customer protection mechanisms needed

  13. Policy environment • More developments in inclusion • MF bill to be introduced in winter session • Two working groups of RBI have made positive recommendations on inclusion • BC guidelines set to undergo radical change? • Policy yet to recognise role of MFIs, SHGs, Cooperatives and Post office in inclusion

Future… • Deepening of MF is critical – customers to be focus • Fair practice code for competition needed • Introduction of lenders liability code and customer protection measures imperative • Last resort refinance facility for tier II and III MFIs • MF bill needs significant modifications • Inclusion to move beyond superficiality • Clarity on Rural finance architecture ?
