Abstract

Islamic Microfinance (IMF) is a recently developed area of poverty alleviation practice; however, the system suffers from identifying usable operational structure and building up sustainable capital for the programs. This article proposes for a two-staged capital structure for IMF system, which would simultaneously overcome both limitations.
