    ABOUT KIVAKiva was founded in October 2005 by Matt and Jessica

    Flannery.

    PayPal provides Kiva with free payment processing. Kiva's

    is the first account at PayPal with a free payment

    .

    The minimum amount that can be loaned to an

    entrepreneur on Kiva is $25.

    It currently employs 34 full-time staff members.

    Loan applicants post the amount needed for their loans in U.S.dollars and include what the money will be spent on like agriculturalsupplies or purchasing wholesale items for resale.

    Users on Kiva may contribute as little as $25 to an applicant'srequested loan amount. Users contribute until the loan is 100%funded.

    Kiva and How it works

    At this point, the loan will either be issued to the loan applicant or alending group associated with the site will be reimbursed for the loanit's already issued to the applicant.

    Microlending Web sites typically use third-party lenders (i.e. Localfield partners) to actually issue the money to the recepient.

    Nonprofit sites like Kiva are populated by people who seemicrolending as a socially responsible cause; their loans will be

    repaid, but without interest.

    KIVAS OPERATIONAL COSTS

    You dont donate through Kiva, you loan. The entire$25 (or any other amount invested) goes to the MFIField Partner and is earmarked for the borrower.

    None of this mone oes towards o erational costs

    not for Kiva nor for the MFI Field Partner.

    Kiva does ask for an optional donation to cover their

    administrative costs, but this is not mandatory.

    Currently, the suggested donation is 15% of the loanamount, or $3.75 for the usual $25 loan, which

    most lenders do contribute.

    KIVAFIELD PARTNERSWhen the entrepreneur repays the loan, they repay the principal

    loan amount (this is the amount listed on the Kiva website)

    plus interest to the Field Partner.

    The Field Partner passes the principal loan amount to Kiva,

    retaining with it the interest amount paid.

    This interest amount goes towards covering the operational costsof the Field Partner. As per Kiva policies, they are free to

    charge interest to the entrepreneur.

    On the other hand, the field partner is not required to pay

    interest or other payment to Kiva which helps reduce their costof capital.

    Kiva passes the principal loan amount back to all lenders who

    contributed to the loan.

    WHYHIGH INTEREST RATES:HSPFI

    (HAGDAN SAPAG-USWAG FOUNDATION,INC)

    Interest rate charged per month approx 3%.

    Hence for a first-time borrower with a loan of P5,000 to be repaidover 5 months, he would be paying back P1000 as principalamount and P150 as interest every month.

    The current exchan e rate is 46 Phili ine esos to 1 USD so the USD e uivalent is$21.74 in capital, and $3.26 in interest.)

    Interest collected goes towards covering:

    1. Salaries and benefits of the project or loan officers who collectthe client repayments on a weekly basis and administrative staff

    at the branch.2. Administrative costs for printing, office supplies, utilities,

    trainings.

    3. Contribution towards head office functioning.

    4. Travel expenses of the project or loan officers.

    Kiva is not the only funder for the HSPFI, and the other funders docharge interest on their loans. Thus the operational costs would

    further increase.

    Therefore a 1st time HSPFI borrower pays $3.26 USD in interestper month on a loan of P5,000 which is 0.13% of operational costs.

    WHYHIGH INTEREST RATES:HSPFI

    (HAGDAN SAPAG-USWAG FOUNDATION,

    INC)

    If the loan amount is increased to P30,000, the long-time, repeatborrower would pay P3,000 on the loan capital and P900 (or$19.57) as interest per month which 0.8% of operational costs. This

    P900 definitely goes farther towards contributing towardsoperational costs.
