Nice, from 08-10 September 2008, was held the 5th EMN Annual Conference organized by European-Microfinance Network - the network of microfinance organizations for the EU countries), with headquarters in Paris. Two representatives of MDF had the honor to attend the Conference and meet with the developments in the sector in EU countries, with  accent  on  different  approaches  to
microkredit and business development services (BDS) in different countries. An important aspect of our interest related to the legislation of microkredit institutions in different EU countries.

The general impression is that the EMN network rapidly learn about microkredit, and that they intend to apply all the best practices especially from MFC - Network for Eastern Europe. Also, regardless the differences between organizations in different countries, they introduced a more or less BDS elements, which is present especially in France. Although the differences in terms of entry of microkredit are significant, the EU states are directed by the European institutions, primarily the European Commission, to promote microkredit as a good way for employment and to integrate it in the appropriate national programs. There were presented the models of Romania and France considering regulation, operation and results, as well as the tendency of further development in the sector in these two countries.
