We are pleased to announce that Elma Zukić, President of the Association of Microcredit Organizations in Bosnia and Herzegovina (AMFI), will be a speaker at the European Microfinance Network (EMN) Annual Conference 2026, taking place on 15–16 October in Barcelona, under the theme “Building an Inclusive Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Together.”
On 16 October, Elma will join the panel “Impact Measurement in 2026 and Beyond: What to Expect and How to Prepare”, alongside Brigitte Fellahi-Brognaux (European Commission), Cristina Dumitrescu (European Investment Fund), Maria Elena Martin Martin (MicroBank), Vase Davaliev (Microcredit Foundation Horizonti) and Bruno Dunkel (Inpulse).
The discussion will be moderated by Kristina Maslauskaite from the Council of Europe Development Bank (CEB).
The panel will explore the development of a common European approach to social impact measurement, focusing on how credible and comparable impact data can strengthen investment decisions, improve access to funding and demonstrate the value of microfinance.
AMFI will bring the perspective and experience of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s microfinance sector, highlighting its ongoing work on a common KPI & ESG Dashboard and the importance of developing practical, proportionate and harmonised impact measurement standards.
A central question will be how the sector can move beyond reporting figures to better understand and demonstrate the real impact of microfinance on people, businesses and communities.
It is an honour for AMFI to contribute to this important European dialogue alongside leading European institutions, investors and microfinance professionals.
We sincerely thank the European Microfinance Network (EMN) and the conference organisers for the invitation and the opportunity to share our experience and contribute to shaping the future of social impact measurement in European microfinance.
We look forward to meaningful discussions and continued collaboration towards a more inclusive and impactful microfinance sector.
