Abstract: There are many elements in the economic and socio‐cultural context of the Pacific region which distinguish it from Asia where many of the most famous models for the delivery of ‘micro’financial services were developed. Is it possible that the rush to replicate existing models, using ‘best practice’ principles developed far from the Pacific, is curtailing careful market analysis and stifling experimentation and innovation in the provision of financial services for the poor? This conference report asks readers to consider the types of ‘micro’financial services and the methods of their delivery which may be appropriate in the Pacific context, and more important, which meet the needs of people in the Pacific.
