Strategic Advisory

As a result of DWM's extensive experience working with some of the most successful microfinance institutions in the world, we are often able to offer strategic advisory and technical assistance to MFIs with regards to operational capabilities or financing needs.

Selected Advisory Roles

In 2006, DWM advised ProCredit Holdings and arranged the first major direct equity investment, $43 million, into a microfinance institution by a mainstream asset manager, TIAA-CREF, the leading provider of retirement savings products and services in the academic, medical and cultural fields, through its $100 million Global Microfinance Investment Program (GMIP). DWM Partner Peter Johnson said, "DWM is proud to have brought together two institutions that are leaders in their field. ProCredit will expand its business, enabling small scale entrepreneurs in low-income countries to build viable enterprises and create employment while, through its investment in ProCredit, TIAA-CREF is fulfilling its mission of providing financial services for the greater good."
