Financial inclusion in Myanmar

In providing simple and effective lending products, Advans aims to accelerate financial inclusion in Myanmar

Advans Myanmar was incorporated in 2015 and is the ninth subsidiary of the Advans group. The MFI received a temporary licence to operate from the Microfinance Supervisory Committee of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar in October 2016 and launched operations in April 2017.

Headquartered in the city of Mandalay, Advans Myanmar has a network of provincial hubs and points of sale in the Mandalay, Sagaing and Magway regions of the country. The MFI’s core business is offering village banking to clients in rural areas and small group lending products and individual loans in urban areas. In providing easily accessible financial services to clients with ill-adapted, limited or no access to formal financial services in Myanmar, Advans Myanmar aims to stimulate economic and social growth in the country.

The MFI was founded by Advans SA, Norfund, the Norwegian development bank, and Amret, a Cambodian MFI which is also a subsidiary of the Advans Group. Advans SA is majority shareholder, holding 50% of the share capital, with Norfund holding 40% and Amret holding 10%. Advans ninth institution is unique in that it has a regional partnership with Amret, the largest MFI in the Advans Group and one of the leading MFIs in Cambodia. The Advans Group provides technical assistance to the greenfield, with Amret acting as secondary technical partner.
