Cypr z uwagi na preferencje podatkowe i korzystniejsze warunki inwestowania kapitału stał się istotnym centrum usług finansowych w swoim regionie. Usługi, w tym finansowe, zaczęły odgrywać coraz ważniejszą rolę w gospodarce. Sytuacja ta doprowadziła do szybkiego rozwoju sektora bankowego, który głównie dzięki depozytom nierezydentów posiadał wolne środki. Banki zainwestowały je m.in. w greckie papiery dłużne, co w przypadku zmaterializowania się problemów Grecji, znacząco odbiło się na sytuacji całego sektora. Dzięki umowie z Trojką i po przeprowadzeniu niezbędnych reform banki zaczęły powoli odzyskiwać pozycję sprzed kryzysu. Za wcześnie jednak jest, aby stwierdzić, że najgorsze banki na Cyprze mają za sobą. Przed nimi jeszcze wiele pracy, aby poprawić swoją kondycję i przywrócić zaufania wśród klientów.

Since its tax preference and favorable conditions for capital investment Cyprus has become an important financial services center in its region. Services, including financial ones, begun to play an increasingly important role in the economy. This situation has led to the rapid development of the banking sector. Banks invested among Greek debt. What, when Greek problems have materialized, significantly influenced the situation of the sector. After reforms banks began to gradually recover to pre-crisis position. However, it is too early to conclude that banks are on the right way to return to their profitability. There is still a lot of work to improve financial condition and restore confidence among customers.

Objective: The problem of financial exclusion is closely correlated to the development of the financial market, also in the regional aspect. In less developed countries ignored by commercial financial institutions, the only chance for the community lies with local financial institutions focused on the implementation of social goals. These can be, for example, microfinance institutions focused on serving poor and socially excluded people. Currently, microfinance institutions run their operations all over the world, in the richest countries and in poor ones. The aim of this article is to define and present the problem of financial exclusion and to examine microfinance as a way of mitigating the problem. Microfinance helps to mitigate financial exclusion, enabling social inclusion for many people via financial products tailored to their needs. Research Design & Methods: The research offers conclusions based on analysis of data and reports published by microfinance institutions and deductive and inductive reasoning. Findings: The research results show that financial inclusion plays a vital role in economic development and poverty alleviation. In order to improve access and usage of banking products, it is also necessary to increase financial awareness and knowledge. MFIs should strive to achieve social goals. Implications/Recommendations: Microfinance institutions all over the world should strive to achieve social goals through a wide range of microfinance products, and not only through microcredit. In order to increase the impact of microfinance institutions and achieve social goals, a scenario for the functioning of MFIs was proposed. This scenario assumes co-implementation of social and commercial goals, which is a condition of retaining the idea of microfinance. Contribution: The article presents the proposed model of microfinance activity which takes into account social goals and the digitisation of activities.
