The main problem of the study: microfinance organizations (MFOs) face the need to adapt to a
rapidly changing digital environment, increased regulation and growing customer expectations in
terms of speed and transparency of service. At the same time, operational management, as a key
element of the sustainability and competitiveness of MFOs, is often carried out on outdated or
fragmented platforms, which reduces the effectiveness of decision-making and increases risks.
The purpose of the article: to identify modern trends and assess the impact of digital
technologies on the system of operational management of microfinance organizations, as well as to
offer recommendations for improving management efficiency based on an analysis of best practices.
Research methods: the study used industry literature analysis, a study of the practices of
leading microfinance organizations, and a summary of expert opinions, which made it possible to
identify patterns in the development of technologies and approaches to operational management in this
area. Results obtained: it was found that digitalization and the introduction of intelligent
management systems contribute to increasing the efficiency of operational decisions, reducing
operational risks and improving the quality of customer service. The study confirmed the relevance of
integrating modern technologies into the processes of microfinance organizations to increase their
sustainability and competitiveness.
Practical significance of the study: the results can be used by microfinance organizations to
increase the efficiency of internal processes, minimize risks and improve customer service. The
recommendations and identified technologies can be implemented in the digital transformation
strategy of MFIs, as well as used in the development of operational management regulations.
