One of the fastest-growing categories of financial services, the Microfinance segment offers banking and financial services to low-income or unemployed individuals who lack access to the same. Recent years have seen Microfinance companies gain immense traction and have even been acknowledged as tools to alleviate poverty and enable people from lower economic backgrounds to become self-sufficient. The growing popularity also means an increase in the amount of data stored with numerous business transactions – data that needs to be stored securely.

Physically storing records will not only be unsafe, putting files at risk of tampering but will also make for a tedious process when looking for any particular file. Especially in the Microfinance industry, record keeping is a crucial task that can make or break the business and put several underprivileged customers at financial risk. Simply put, it gives the business a sense of direction, regardless of the business size. This is where digital record management comes into the picture.
