Social Performance Effective Translation of MFI Mission into practice… Effective Translation of MFI Mission into practice… SP is all about the result … SPM is about the system, people, process etc in MFIs to achieve SP SP is all about the result … SPM is about the system, people, process etc in MFIs to achieve SP Intent & Design Internal systems & Activities Output Outcome Impact SPM SP SP Continuum Social Audit / Social Rating

Why Networks to do Social Audit/Social Rating Networks must help MFIs to ‘MANAGE’ their Social performance..because SP is NOT AUTOMATIC. Networks need to ‘MEASURE’ the measures taken by their MFIs to manage their Social Performance The Networks need to ensure that their MFIs are SOCIALLY RELEVANT and that they PERFORM WELL on that front Social Audit /Rating helps the Networks to gauge how their MFIs ‘MANAGE’ SP

Social Audit vs Social Rating Social Audit Social Rating Normally Not Graded –Not PublicPublic- Can be published Towards Improving PracticeOpinion on Existing Practice Guided Self evaluationIndependent Evaluation Gauging Internal Strength & WeaknessAssessment by Externals- Investors/Donors Good for MFIs at all stagesBetter for MFIs with established SPM
