Ok, it’s only USD43 million, a pittance compared to losses in the US financial sector. But still, quite an achievement for Kiva. All, I suspect, the result of making partial repayments available for immediate re-lending. I know I’ve been looking for a project to lend to for the past couple of weeks, to no avail. It’s bad enough that there are so few projects under Agriculture. But no projects at all? Amazing.
