The rules outlined in the Regulations for the New Route PhD (2014) guided the preparation and writing of this thesis. 4 | Microfinance in Zimbabwe: social performance and coping strategies ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would never have been completed without the support, generosity, and sacrifices of many people. I want to begin by acknowledging God the Almighty who gave me the mental and emotional strength to accomplish this work and allowed his good people to support me in various ways. I would also like to thank my partner Angeline for shouldering the burden of looking after our four children while I juggle between writing this thesis and a full time job. In addition, I want to thank our children; Girlie, Julie, Tariro and Esther for allowing me to divert the much valued family time to my studies. Furthermore, I want to acknowledge my brother Mr Matsvimbo Dida (Senior Manager at FBC Bank – 5 | Microfinance in Zimbabwe: social performance and coping strategies Zimbabwe) for the inspiration and practical support particularly during my field visit to Zimbabwe for data collection. Also I am very grateful to my first supervisor, Professor Dina Abbott for the inspiration, support, mentoring and nurturing she gave me through this very long academic journey. Very special thanks to my second supervisor Dr Howard Fox for always providing tactful guidance and support especially on building my confidence and competencies in statistical research methods. I would also want to express my gratitude to Mr Oliver Tomlinson (Lecturer in Geo-Science at the University of Derby) who helped on several occasions with geographic information system (GIS) mapping. Data collection would have been extremely difficult without the help and support of Mr Munyaradzi Matsaira (Untu Finance Zimbabwe) who played a pivotal role in coordinating the logistics of interviews. I would like to give special thanks to Mr George Nhepera (Regional Microfinance Coordinator, Zimbabwe Association of Microfinance Institutions (ZAMFI)) for going out of his way in making personal introductions to a number of MFIs to facilitate data collection. A large number of top executives in the microfinance sector in Zimbabwe gave their time to support this work through in-depth interviews, which lasted several hours. I am very grateful particularly to Mr Patrick Mangwendeza (Executive director of Micro-Plan), Mr Lovemore Mango (FMC), Mrs Virginia Sibanda (Managing Director Virl Microfinance), Mr Gideon Charumbira (Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe), Mr Tamirira Rusheche (Managing Director of Micro King) and Mr Godfrey Chitambo (Executive Director of ZAMFI) just to mention a few. Finally, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my former employer, Village Aid UK, a charity based in Bakewell Derbyshire for allowing me space to work on my thesis. Special 6 | Microfinance in Zimbabwe: social performance and coping strategies thanks go to my former line manager, Dr Kemal Shaheen for being supportive and insightfully challenging my intellectual development to engage more deeply with complex issues. I want to thank my current employer, World Vision UK for also allowing me space to finish my thesis and accommodating my study needs. Special thanks go to my line manager Ms Hilary Williams for being very understanding and supportive. Furthermore, I would like to thank Dr Daniel Stevens and all my fellow colleagues at World Vision UK for with enthusiasm they gave me the much-needed moral support. While all the above have contributed to the thesis, I am responsible for any errors contained herein.

Microfinance has close association with informal microcredit, mainly self-help schemes and Government led rural agricultural credit, which was based on the idea of lending for the poor up to the 1960s through to the early 1970s. Whilst informal microcredit was viewed to be a success on many forms for some decades, it was clear that tailor-made changes were needed to respond specifically to the poor’s financial needs and help them fight poverty. Thus, it was seen as necessary to experiment on an institution based/formal financial service sector for the poor in the late 1970s through to the 1990s, which could perhaps tackle poverty reduction more systematically and effectively. In this, microcredit transformed into microfinance having incorporated more financial services on offer in addition to credit 9 | Microfinance in Zimbabwe: social performance and coping strategies and was regarded as the new step forward and backed by several development agencies including the United Nations. In fact, microfinance was hailed as the most innovative poverty alleviation tool, able to deal with poverty whilst at the same time generating sufficient extra income to cover operating costs. Over four decades on since its inception, the microfinance sector has grown tremendously but, as is commonly acknowledged, the shackles of global poverty are just as visible as ever and in some cases are even stronger. This study critically explores and analyses the state of the microfinance sector in Zimbabwe following a recent political, economic and social crisis characterised by hyperinflation reaching six figure digits, which led to a revamp of the microfinance sector in 2009. The findings this study reflect a systematic departure of the original hopes and ideals of microfinance as a poverty-reduction centred programming to that of a profit-led business approach and the emergence of a new breed of microfinance institutions (MFIs). In this new world of “microfinance”, very poor social performance causing distressful situations for borrowers where in certain instances have been known to take their own lives (as In India) due to debt pressures has been witnessed. Ironically, also visible are the microfinance millionaires and successful MFI banks floating on the stock. Not surprisingly, as a result, microfinance has attracted a lot of public scrutiny particularly among academics and policy makers with its

It moves and changes in accordance with a given society’s stage of development. It changes in such a way that what society regarded as lawful yesterday may not be lawful on the following day and vice versa. Its movement and changes are not without reason. They assist people in whose society the changes and movements occur to resolve disputes which arise between, and amongst, them with a certain degree of clarity. They are, therefore, a dispute-resolving mechanism which society puts into place from time to time for the good of its own members. Where the law is clear and unambiguous, it must be taken as it is. It should not be overstretched to suit the circumstances of any litigant to a dispute. It should, in other words, neither be expanded nor contracted. It should be allowed to assume and retain its ordinary, grammatical meaning or the meaning by which its words, as they appear in a statute or document, are popularly known or understood to mean in every day parlance. It is only where the words which appear in a document are either unclear or ambiguous or are devoid of meaning that the onerous task of giving a possible meaning to them arises.

Abstract: The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe enforced strict adherence to loan loss provisions and standard risk exposures in implementing Basel 11 in the banking sector. This was due to a huge bad debt and non performing loans in the books of commercial banks from 2009 up to 2014. Such a scenario impacted negatively to some closures of indigenous banks in Zimbabwe.

The population of the study was on the commercial banks in Harare, Zimbabwe. The main research instruments used in the study were self- administered questionnaires. A representative sample of thirty respondents from the retail and corporate banking departmental functions and the Bankers Association of Zimbabwe was selected to participate in the study of which comprised of two opinion leaders for each commercial bank was considered.
