Assaad Jabre,
Acting Executive Vice President,
International Finance Corporation
“The poor deserve access to essential financial services just like everyone else. With it, they have a much better chance of working their way out of poverty and gaining a base for self-sufficient living. We applaud the Year of Microcredit for helping focus the world's attention on this crucial concept, and we are committed to working with our partners in the banking industry and development community on bringing microfinance closer into the mainstream of the financial services industry throughout the developing world.”
