David Roodman's Microfinance Open Book Blog

MicroSave is a consulting organization that specializes in designing financial services for the poor from the basis of a strong understanding of client perspectives. They have people in the India, the Philippines, Uganda, and Kenya. Never heard of them? I have to say, among microfinance organizations, they are rather awkward in public. But if their outreach to people like us isn't slickest, perhaps that is because they spend their time talking to clients and industry insiders, developing subtle insights.
