Agenda

Mission

Strategy

Microfinance at Hefboom: IMPULSKREDIET

Conclusions

Mission statement “Hefboom strives for a social and durable society & wants to support

this goal in close collaboration with companies, organizations and

persons”

Hefboom provides ethical investments, consulting services and

financing solutions towards social and durable initiatives. We want

to create an added value for vulnerable organizations with limited

financial capacity, who have need for additional management

consulting support and want to launch new innovative projects and

commercial activities.

All this is only possible through the shareholders community who

provide the necessary capital on the long term.

Strategy Focussing on the social profit sector in Flanders & the Capital region

Brussels the target group has been defined around the following

pillars:

– organizations in relationship towards the social integration economy

like social workplaces, protected workplaces, centers for education,...

– organizations in relationship with vulnerable groups like children,

youngsters in difficult educational situations, persons with

handicaps,...

– Social organizations or companies, co-operations, people and

environmental companies

– Innovative projects or activities related to the social economy

Lessons learned

Target Group

Entrepreneurs or startups who do not have access to adequate bank

credit because of:

- Insufficient collateral or capital insertion

- history of their credits (filed at NBB)

- insufficient income (unemployed, depending on life wage,...)

- professional history (bankruptcy)

- Necessity of commercial & administrative skill

Our target group goes towards trustable & experienced entrepreneurs with activities who need not a lot of capital (rather services) that are well prepared (business plan available, eventually some clients) and with limited private costs or expenses

considered for an Impulskrediet. (no access to bank credit,

independent activity , micro-enterprise, …)

needed additional documents. (for instance certificates , contracts,

licenses….).

4. If it seems acceptable you are invited.

5. We gather the needed information and figures to estimate the

application.

6. Based on the business plan and the information, we make a file.

If good enough we introduce it on our credit committee.

7. The credit committee takes a decision on the amount and on the

conditions taking the human factor into consideration.

8. If the loan is accredited, we indicate a coach and we make up a

contract.

9. If all conditions fulfilled the Impulskrediet is paid, based on

evidences.

10. During 2 years coaching free of charge by one of our coaches.

Conclusions

– We have seen a definite social impact for the borrower

– The combination of Credits and Consultancy has a positive effect on

the relationship with the customer and the quality of the file

– Related to the financial risk, micro finance has not yet demonstrated

its positive business case. External funding funding is necessary to

get in the money

– Future development based upon controlled growth and differentiation
