Helping Hand is the next generation investment vehicle in microfinance.

Helping Hand grasps the new reality of providing the full range of multi-asset class investment products to the financially poor micro-entrepreneurs.

Microfinance is one of the highest growth business sectors in the market today. The socially responsible investment (SRI) market is estimated at about 3 trillion dollars worldwide.

There are over 500 million micro-entrepreneurs in the world...

With each micro-entrepreneur having the potential to loan an average of $500 (USD) there is a global market capitalization of $250 Billion (USD) currently in the micro-finance market which will continue to grow as the market is developed.

The microfinance industry provides the financially poor micro-enterprises and micro-entrepreneurs access to a large supply of loans, working capital credits and other financial services. People living in poor countries or emerging markets, need these credits to start or run their businesses, just like everyone in the western world.

Micro-enterprises are small businesses in the rural areas or villages that are most of the time family owned and operated. They are active in the trade, service and production sectors. These micro-entrepreneurs are the most important part as they make up the foundation from which every, so called informal economy has been built on. In most of the cases, these small businesses have no access to financial services through the usual financial sector.

The microfinance industry has matured into a transparent and regulated market.

Microfinance is the investment class of the future.


Microfinance is a high-growth sector, promoted not only by the size of its target market, but also by its profitability.

Helping Hand is a Benelux based enterprise whose target is to promote the micro finance business environment as a smart and social investment tool.
