New Delhi, Aug 22 (UNI) ICC Academy, the educational arm of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), on Thursday launched the Microfinance Associate Certificate in partnership with Satin Creditcare Network, one of the world’s leading microfinance providers.

This specialised online programme is designed to provide a practical overview and leverage a deeper understanding of the processes required to achieve business-readiness for anyone joining the microfinance industry.

Microfinance provides financial services - such as deposits, loans, payment services, money transfers and insurance - to low-income households, entrepreneurs and nascent businesses, who would otherwise not have access to such services, according to a statement here.
