Abstract

L'atteinte d'un impact social auprès des populations marginalisées, finalité première des institutions de microfinance, exige à ces dernières de concilier leurs performances financières et sociales afin d'assurer la pérennisation de leurs activités. Au moyen de la base des données de Mix Market, cette étude s'est attelé d'évaluer dans le temps l'efficience des IMF, partant d'un échantillon de 150 institutions reparties à travers cinq régions du monde et à l'aide de la méthode d'enveloppement des données (DEA). Il s'observe des corrélations positives entre les différentes approches selon le modèle CCR contrairement au modèle BCC qui présente d'une part, une opposition entre les approches Dépôt et Crédit par rapport à l'approche sociale et d'autre part, une faible corrélation positive entre l'approche financière et l'approche sociale. Les IMF sont très agressives dans la mobilisation de l'épargne et présentent assez des restrictions dans l'octroi des crédits. Les Imf sont plus efficientes au niveau financier que social selon les approches d'efficience technique (86,4% contre 34,9%) et d'échelles (91% contre 51%). L'apport du présent travail par rapport aux études antérieures sur le sujet est l'intégration des influences de la gestion de risque et de la conjoncture économique dans la mesure des scores d'efficience de ces institutions.
