Basic Concept Pakistan Institute of Integrated Microfinance
The globalization demands society, economy, civilization and development as one unit and not as divided in compartments to move ahead. The attitude of dealing things in cubicles can not travel parallel with the philosophy of globalization. Microfinance started with this very approach but unluckily methodologies, recourses, policies, systems, procedures, and the tend to grasp a wide spread made it scattered. The race of achieving high targets detracted most of the institutions working for microfinance and the actual belief of microfinance left behind. Especially the dream of changing the lives of poor became feeble because of not fulfilling the aim of social performance. No doubt the microfinance is a tool which can change not only the lives of poor but also can bring a social revolution in poor countries towards a greater productivity. Social performance based Microfinance is not a money making industry. It has belief on socioproductive profitability which comes into result as a prominent social change at a larger scale. In this perspective PAKISTAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRATED MICROFINANCE came in to existence to accomplish the real goals and objectives of the sector which are being neglected at a vast level. It is a non governmental
organization having highly committed, self motivated, innovative and enthusiastic grassroots experts as its founder members. Pakistan Institute of Integrated Microfinance is the first organization in Pakistan aiming at millennium development goals with a holistic approach. It is addressing Health, education and vulnerability along with poverty alleviation. Although PIIM is at its early stage but its vision ,mission and objectives are very clear and inevitable to address particularly in the countries like Pakistan.
PIIM has a tetra bottom line approach with very creative manners, and the same four are the dynamics of the institution.
