This paper is a research on the development of the Islamic microfinance sector in three countries: Yemen, Egypt and Indonesia. The main purpose of this study is to find out which factors are essential for the expansion of the mentioned sector, and if they are comparable to other countries. The research shows that the government's input is a crucial factor for the expansion of the Islamic microfinance sector. In the studied case of Yemen, the government's input has been led by a previous demand research addressed to the population. However, due to the lack of surveys, statistics and, in general, of scientific researches, the confirmation of the last premise – if this demand of first importance is essential for the expansion of the Islamic microfinance- needs to be confirmed by a future specific research within the population/countries selected.
