For research in the above area, one have to access to number of proxies used for the measure of relationship mentioned above. For the proxies DATA is needed which must be a reliable data. One information is Mix-Market, Can someone guide for any other source? Would it be paid source or free available?
What is MFI? - Micro finance Institute? If it is , by my opinion data must have the World Bank.
Please try the MFIN data of Indian MFIs. It's quite data rich and freely accessible.
Hello. For Chinese data you can access it through CSMAR database and for American data you can search for WRDS database which is paid but it's the world's comprehensive database. Thanks.
Yes, there is uncoordinated database for these financial institutions essentially because of various regulating agencies involved. I recommend www. mix exchange.com
Global data is difficult to come by however microfinancegateway and CGAP provide sufficient information. Alternatively, narrow your search down to individual countries, eg Indonesia, India, Bangladesh, Ghana, China, etc
You can also do on regional bases such subsahara Africa, Asia, etc.

Dear. Kwami Hope Quao I agree to you to narrow down to Africa and Asia but DATA Matters. How to get DATA of MFIs in Africa and Asia. Can you help getting Asia DATA? I shall be grateful.
Dear Izolda Chiladze Yes it is Micro Finance Institutions, but the DATA is not available with World Bank
Please, go to sub-saharan Africa/microfinancegateway - chap
Or
Microfinance in Africa
Or
Search Kiva,
Microfinance network

Hello, it is do difficult to find out globa data for capital structure.
I believe it is a better way, that you might find them in IMF(Asian) resources.
Seaarch for: Asian Data on Microfinance Institutions, there a a lot of panel data
Difficult to get global data on capital structure. Be realistic and focus on few selected countries or region.

Those are a few a links however some of the information might be a bit too old for PhD work
Adnan Ali if you have any friends in Europe or USA, they can help you if they have access to those databases.
Yes, PhD is tough, if you want to do comparatively better research and if your goal is to publish in good ranked SSCI journals.
Maybe you use it.
