I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Kasay Marine Protected Area Inc. is a non-stock corporation and an accredited organization whose
primarily purpose is to protect and conserve the established marine sanctuary in the City Waters of Kasay,
San Fernando City, La Union is making a significant steps to enhance and uplift the socio-economic well-
being of its members by establishing Micro-Financing Program. The said program helps bridge the huge
shortfall of financially underserved community members regarding access to the traditional financial
system. Moreover, the Kasay Micro-Financing Program is convenient and offers a reasonable interest rate
to cater to the financial shortcoming of the market.
To fund the program, the Kasay MPA will utilize some portion of its general fund and will Loan-
Revolving Fund (LRF) offered by the Institute of Social Order. In addition, Kasay Marine Protected Area
will partner with different stakeholders like CENRO, ISO, BLGU, and other Peoples’ Organizations to
sustain the program.
II. INTRODUCTION
Lending plays a big role in supporting the financial incapacity of many individuals. In the Philippines,
many lending companies offer different kinds of loans contingent on the needs of the people and their
capacity to return the amount owe. The practice of providing small loans to the poor is an increasingly
common tool intended to fight poverty and promote economic growth. Micro-financing became an
avenue for investors by helping impoverished individuals in third world countries particularly in rural
areas to borrow money for business, agricultural and educational purposes.
Financially distressed individuals choose to avail loans from underground lending like Bombay or often
called 5,6, which offers as high as 20% interest rate, which makes borrowers sunk from their financial
obligations, and in the long run, it doesn’t really help them for their financial shortcomings. Micro-
financing is small loans made to the working poor or other needy individuals who cannot borrow money
through traditional routes due to a long list of requirements and sophisticated procedures in availing
loans. It helps bridge the huge shortfall regarding access to the traditional financial system. Micro-
financing has expanded and evolved and often looks like traditional retail or small business lending where
for-profit lenders extend individual liability credit in increasingly urban and competitive settings. The
motivation for the continued expansion of micro-finance is the presumption that expanding credit access
is an efficient way to fight poverty and promote growth.
The engagement of Kasay Marine Proected Area Inc. to Micro-Financing is expected to support its
members in the area, such as the need to support studies, basic needs, small businesses & etc. This could
be a profitable business segment of the association if the proper management of funds and control of risks
are in place. Running such a venture can give a favorable return of capital or investment. KMPA is
expecting more people to want to borrow money amidst the economic crisis. The loans allow borrowers
to diversify and be creative in utilizing the borrowed capital. They will work hard for everything that
they received. In Micro-lending program, the individuals must give back what they have borrowed. This
helps ensure a high repayment rate.
The business operation shall be called Micro-Financing Program. Its primary objective is to provide
microloans at a reasonable price to the members of the organization.

In order to achieve project sustainability, some officers of Kasay Marine Protected Area Inc. shall attend
the following trainings to be conducted by the Institute of Social Order as one of the steps in securing
Loan-Revolving Fund with the latter:
1. Members who wish to borrow money from the micro-credit operation should secure a loan
application form from Kasay Secretary to be accomplished or fill out personally by the borrower.
The form contains the basic personal information of the borrower and the reason/s of borrowing.
2. File the accomplished form to the Livelihood Team Leader.
3. The Livelihood Team Leader is responsible for approving and disbursing the loan. He must
assess whether the borrower can apply for a loan or whether the borrower has an existing loan to
settle, which may default him from borrowing.
4. If the loan is approved, the cash loan shall be released immediately or upon the availability of
cash. Release of cash loan shall be on a “first-come, first-served” basis.
The loan application form indicates the borrower's personal information, such as complete name,
residential address, and contact details. It is a two-page form. Loan details and undertaking of the
borrower are found on the first page The second page serves as a statement of account that shows the
loan's current balance. In addition, in every periodic payment made by the borrower, he/she should
provide a signature in the portion provided in the form as proof and validity of the transaction.
A transaction sequence is posted in the upper right corner of the application form. The series will start
from 20210000. The first four digits indicate the current year. Therefore, the sequence will be replenished
every year. When the loan application form is damaged or simulated, the credit officer shall mark it as
“void.”
In the lowest part of the loan/transaction form is a checklist containing a “radio buttons”: “Partial” and
“Completed.” The authorized officer will mark it depending on the status of the loan on the time of
Page 5
posting in the accounting system or database. “Partial” is when the loan is not yet fully paid out. Tickle
the “Completed” option when both criteria are met:
a) The loan is fully extinguished by the repayment of entire principal, interest and other fees and;
b) Updated in the accounting the system then amount outstanding thereby is ZERO.
When completed, the form is disregarded in the custody of the collecting officer and stored in the Kasay
Building or designated desk.
a) Parties- The Loan Agreement is made between the KMPA and to its specific borrower Date of
Agreement -The Agreement is effective on the date (when the cash loan was released).

reasons which are eligible for loan assistance:

RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Page 11
Based on the projected income statement of the business, the total interest earned in year 1 is of P22,500.
The projected expenses incurred in that same year is P12,000.00. To get the ROI the illustration is drawn
below:
ROI = (22,500 –12,000) / 50,000 x 100%
ROI = 20% (the operation is fairly profitable)
CONCLUSIONS
Establishing of Micro-Credit operation appears to be feasible as shown on the evaluation of Return on
Investment of 20% on its first year of operation. Furthermore, as per experience by the proponent, having
a lending operation in the area will aid the financially underserved members during times of emergencies.
