SERVICE
Oxford Microfinance Initiative is a student-run
consultancy that provides free services to microfinance institutions.
We aim to assist MFIs in conducting research and
developing innovative development solutions.
OMI acts as a link between MFIs and the Oxford student
population. We talk to MFIs to ascertain their needs, and
draw up a formal project proposal detailing the scope of the
project, its objectives and the expected timeline.
OMI then invites applications from our Oxford student
members. Typically, eight or nine projects will be launched at
beginning of Michaelmas. With the help of an application form
and interviews, student teams are formed for each project.
OMI offer Oxford students invaluable insight into the work of
microfinance institutions, internship opportunities and experience
in consulting, finance and academic research. OMI
alumni have gone on to work in consultancy, banking, and all
fields of international development. For more info, visit us at
oxfordmicrofinance.org.
