Abstract
Grassroots of people in developing countries have been given access to formal financial services through microfinance programs. FSS and OSS has been defined by various researchers differently. As such there is no clear cut definition of the word FSS and OSS. So, this study was conducted to fill the gap. From the total of thirty four MFIs which are operating in the country and fifteen MFIs have been selected for the study by way of a purposive sampling technique. This study is based on quantitative research approach using panel data and multiple regression model and Audited Financial statement data for eight years are collected by using secondary data from NBE, from the annual bulletin of AEMFI and mix-market database.
