Outreach KPIs Jordanian specialized MFIs are well exercising the microcredit sector in Jordan market. Three groups of financial indicators: outreach; returns and; risk KPIs, are clearly shown byTable No. 6 . Gross Loan Portfolio: Jordan MFIs have a total portfolio of 136.99 m. $ in 2009, of which Development & Employment Fund DEF has 59.75 m. $, which amounted to 43.6% of total portfolio in the market. DEF as an independent government entity capitalized that much of money due to the donations and gifts from the government and, gifts from international agencies via government support too. Middle East Microfinance Company MEMC showed the highest Loans Portfolio to Assets among Jordan MFIs, 94.8% of its assets are dedicated to loans, DEF and Microfund for Women MFW were shown very high assets allocated to loans for a 93% and 92.5% respectively. Other MFIs: AlWatani Bank, Ahlia Microfinance Company AMC, TAMWEELCOM, and UNRWA were allocated 85.6% - 88.9% of their assets to loans. However, FINCA is proven to have the lowest allocation of its assets to loans of only 71.3%; this is because the losses incurred due to its new establishment in 2007, thereby it needs more time to recover its pre-operating expenses and stabilize in the market. Number of Active Borrowers: in fact, number of active borrowers for each MFI depends on the loan duration and the amount of loans dispersed. Although, its nominal figure reflects the MFIs outreach, the actual indicator that reflects the depth of outreach is by comparing it with loan duration and borrowers’ extension accumulation of the same loan; many Jordanian MFIs consider relending to the same borrower as another active borrower, which makes the big difference. On the average, MFIs have 21637 active borrowers per each; as driven by the industry norm. Women Borrowers: Jordan MFIs focuses its operations to be in favor of females, FINCA, MFW and TAMWEELCOM are roughly fully lending to women 97.6% , 96.5% and 96.2% of their clients respectively, Alwatani Bank 90%, and the others MEMC by 64.5%, DEF by 58.4%, and AMC by 48.5% of their lending to females. Loans Outstanding: almost this indicator reflects number of active borrowers for all MFI in Jordan except for MEMC; because it calculates the renewal of a loan as another loan. In general, each Jordanian MFI had 22070 outstanding loans in 2009, on the average; this means that every employee supervises 181 loans outstanding in the year. Average Loan Balance per Borrower: DEF shows to be highest for this KPI, this is due to thefact that, DEF loan size is much higher than other MFIs, it ranges from 500 $ to 20,000 $. Whereas, most other MFIs loan size rages from 100 $-7000 $, only MEMC and Ahli companies have 20,000 $ loan ceiling; this is why they are rated at the second and third. These facts reflected in the Average
129 European Journal of Economics, Finance And Administrative Sciences - Issue 42 (2011) Loan Balance per Borrower/ GNI per capita, which amounted to 78.8%, 52.4% and47.8% to DEF, MEMC and AMC respectively. Average Outstanding Balance: on the average, average loan outstanding balance is 1130 $ in 2009 for Jordan MFIs, DEF is the biggest, then followed by AMC and MEMC for the beforementined reasons. This figure also reflected the Average Outstanding Balance/GNI per capita, which showed that, the loans dispersed by MFIs to borrowers in Jordan are amounted to 30% of the per capita income. In sum, these loans are so small, because they are targeting microenterprises. 4.3.2. Return KPIs Return on Assets ROA: ROA is shown to be high to UNRWA, MFW, AlWatani, TAMWEELCOM, and MEMC, it ranges from 7%-9.4%. However, it’s lower to DEF and AMC with 3.1% and 4.1% only. FINCA was exercised losses. Also, for Return on Equity ROE, DEF and AMC are the lowest and below the Jordan’s average norm. However, UNRWA is too high due to its very low equities. Operational Self-Sufficiency: Financial revenue to financial expenses and losses on loans is shown to be above the average norm for seven MFIs, DEF is shown to be the highest, while FINCA is the lowest. Financial Revenue / Assets: UNRWA, MFW are proven the highest financial revenue to assets and, DEF is performing the lowest ; due to its large amount of assets and its less concern of attaining profits, rather than mobilizing its money to cover remote areas. This is also affected the Profit Margin. DEF is shown the highest profit margin of 39% not because of its net income, but due to its low financial revenue, and its zero cost to a large amount of its capital. MEMC is proven to be the highest. Fortunately, all Jordanian MFIs, except AMC and FINCA are above Jordan’s industry norm. Real Yield on Gross Loan Portfolio: this rate is shown to be the highest for UNRWA to an amount of 39.1%, followed by TAMWEELCOM, MFW and FINCA with 39% and 37%, and AlWatani bank with 35.3%, then AMC and MEMC with 29.7%, and 24.3% respectively. Whereas, DEF is exercising the lowest rate of 9.3% only.
