Abstract Text This report analyses the level of indebtedness of MSME credit customers and the quality of finance in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).
Zusammenfassung The objectives of study are to - assess the current level of indebtedness and repayment performance of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and retail borrowers in BiH, - examine the factors – on both the demand and supply side – that drive high levels of indebtedness, - assess the quality of finance for these clients of financial institutions, and - propose recommendations for financial institutions in BiH. The findings show that the majority of borrowers have more than one credit product outstanding. Moreover, multiple and cross-borrowing are still prevalent albeit to a lower degree compared to the 2009 microcredit data sample and high levels of indebtedness still prevail in certain market segments.
