Cambodia’s microfinance loan portfolio tops $6 billion in 2025
[Khmer Times]: The Cambodia Microfinance Association (CMA) reported that the outstanding loan portfolio exceeded $6 billion last year, while deposits at Microfinance Deposit-Taking Institutions (MDIs) neared $3 billion, with women accounting for 61 percent of its 1.53 million borrowers.
According to the CMA’s 2025 Annual Report released yesterday, the total outstanding loan portfolio reached $5.99 billion, representing an increase of over 15 percent from 2024.
Deposits at the country’s four licensed MDIs rose 17.6 percent to $2.99 billion, reflecting continued public confidence in Cambodia’s regulated microfinance sector despite domestic and global economic uncertainties.
The report showed that the industry served 1.53 million active borrowers and 2.21 million depositors through a nationwide network of 950 offices with 22,531 employees.
Women remained the dominant borrowers, accounting for 61 percent of total clients, underscoring the sector’s important role in promoting financial inclusion and supporting female-led businesses and household livelihoods across the Kingdom.
Former CMA Chairwoman Dith Nita described 2025 as a milestone year for the industry, saying it successfully balanced sustainable growth with a stronger commitment to improving the financial well-being of Cambodians.
“The year 2025 has been a defining period of the sector, a year where we balanced the pursuit of sustainable growth with a deepened commitment to the financial well-being of the Cambodian people,” she said.
