 Aside from being Afghanistan’s first sharia-compliant microfinance organization, FINCA can perhaps claim to have created one of the world’s first Murabaha group-lending products.FINCA Afghanistan receives its primary funding from the Microfinance Investment Support Facility for Afghanistan (MISFA) through a $30 million grant.In November 2006, this grant was augmented by $10 million through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) as part of an $80 million rural microfinance project to promote development and stability in Afghanistan.
