In recent years, the microfinance sector in Burundi has experienced a financial underperformance
linked to the low loan repayment rate. This was materialized by the closure of some microfinance institutions by the Central Bank (Bank of the Republic of Burundi). This article aims at studying the determinants of the default rate in microfinance institutions in Burundi. Based on a logistic regression on data collected from clients of
Burundian microfinance institutions, the analysis shows that the rate of default may be due either to factors
related to borrowers such as level of study, sector of activity, poor management of the microenterprise, bad
faith of the borrower, or to the institution as the type of guarantee required, lack of follow-up, interest rate, the distance of the institution from its customers. Thus the knowledge of sources of unpaid debts for the leaders of microfinance institutions allows them to establish sound direction and management policies in order to ensure the financial performance of their institutions. This monitoring will have as a corollary, positive effects on financial inclusion in Burundi.

Il y a inclusion financière si l’accès aux services financiers est associé à leur utilisation. Cet article examine cette double dimension de l’inclusion financière dans la province de Cibitoke à partir d’un échantillon de 1012 individus clients des institutions de microfinance. L’inclusion financière est mise en évidence à travers des variables comme le genre du répondant, son niveau d’étude, avoir un compte pour les opérations financières traditionnelles ou numérique, l’usage de comptes pour le virement de salaire, le transfert des fonds ou le paiement des factures. Les résultats économétriques révèlent que toutes les variables ont un effet positif sur l’inclusion financière. Les résultats montrent aussi que l’utilisation des services financiers reste faible pour les opérations financières digitales ou pour les femmes. Afin de renforcer le niveau d’inclusion financière, il est souhaitable que les institutions de microfinance ainsi que le gouvernement organisent conjointement des sessions sur l’éducation financière et participent à la mise en place des infrastructures appropriées pour les opérations financières digitales.
