In 2006-08, 51 microcredit organisations (MCO) were created with FFSA investment in their charter capital (up to 49%). At present, the system is not sustainable without government financing. Between 2005 and 2011, 63 000 such loans were allocated, with a maximum amount per borrower of KZT 400 000 (USD 2 715) in 2010, and KZT 1 million (USD 6 800) in 2011. About 91% of the loans were taken out for livestock production, 5% for crop growing, and the rest for other business activities.
