Abstract:

This research is based on two models of the object model of the Grameen Bank that successfully implemented in rural communities of Bangladesh and APEX BPR models have been suggested by the Central Bank of Indonesia. It is expected that these two models can be reduced poverty in Indonesia. Conclusions can be drawn from this study is that the level of poverty later in Indonesia in handling through lending activities were not able to use only one in the same way. this is because, since this type of poverty in rural and urban areas have differences. With the APEX BPR is felt more appropriate to extend credit in the urban poor Grameen Bank model is more suitable to be applied to extend credit in rural communities

Abstract:

Poverty is economic, social, political and even moral issue all over the world. Microfinance has been designed to eliminate poverty and may help marginal people to materialize their dreams. Microfinance has been formalized primarily in Bangladesh with this concept. Grameen Bank (GB) has been serving large number of people below poverty level here. Initially, microfinance institutions have been supported by the Government or Donor assuming its positive impact on borrowers. However, ambiguous impacts have been reported in several studies that make microfinance questionable. Therefore, this study intent to measure the impact of microfinance on GB borrowers through the process of qualitative changes in borrowers lives. The process has been measured by some case studies for participant and non-participant borrowers using Modified Household Economic Portfolio Model (M - HEPM). Our qualitative analysis shows that microfinance makes positive changes in the process of borrowers lives observed through financial and activity diaries of the borrowers.

Abstract:

Poverty reduction has been declared as the most important millennium development goal not only by the world level organizations and institutions, but also by the government of Pakistan. Micro-credit is considered as a prime tool to fight back poverty. After the success of Grameen Bank of Bangladesh multiple other banks and micro finance institutions (MFIâ€™s) like Banko Soladerio of Latin America, Indonesiaâ€™s BRI-UD, BAAC in Thailand, BRAC in Bangladesh and VBSP in Vietnam have been working on almost the similar pattern. In Pakistan different NGOs like AKRSP, Orangi pilot project, Kashf foundation and others have started working for the past few years basically to eradicate poverty and for women empowerment. The government institutions are also seriously making an effort to eradicate poverty through micro financing schemes. Government of Pakistan has selected the RSP (rural support program) model for micro-financing. The success of both government institutions and NGOs is not very outstanding to meet the basic objective of poverty eradication. The aim of this paper is to see the possibility of collaboration between the NGOs and the government to achieve the desired common goal. It is hypothesized that if government and NGOs work together and collaborate each other, the effectiveness of micro financing schemes could be strengthened.

Abstract:

This study aims to understand the cause-and-effect relationship between financial and non-financial measures under a balanced scorecard (BSC) model in the microfinance sector of Bangladesh. Structural equation modeling is employed to test non-financial relationships hypothesized under BSC model and one sample t-tests are conducted to further relate non-financial variables to the financial performance variable for two microfinance providers. While all non-financial variables share positive and significant relationships, findings show that customer perspective and internal business process factors are quite strong and more evident for Grameen Bank than a cooperative bank. As such, microfinance providers which will improve their non-financial perspectives can ultimately benefit from increased financial performance. The article draws attention to microfinance providers so that they can address shortcomings in their current performance measurement systems and identify mechanisms that can help them improve their financial performances. Implications and future directions are discussed too.

Abstract:

The standard of living in many developing countries like Bangladesh especially rural area is not standard level or satisfied. The microcredit programs of Grameen Bank (GB) in Bangladesh have emerged as a strategy on standard of living and reduction poverty. They are also trying to remove poverty and unemployment and energetic poor people who want to engage in economic activities, the institution provides not only loan to them but also advice and monitoring. The aim of the study is to explore the impact of GB microcredit on standard of living of rural women in study area whom have already involved in its loan. As sample only 198 current microcredit fund receiver’s respondents from Sariakandi upazila under Bogra district were selected. Data were collected from six centers under two selected branches using questionnaire. Data were explained normally under descriptive method using simple statistical tools such as chi-square test and One-way ANOVA test and econometric model such as OLS regression. After analyzing data, results of the study show that there has a positive effect on savings, average monthly income, expenditure, average level of education of borrowers’ households, number of income earner and asset. The results of One-way ANOVA test indicate that there exists a significant relationship among some factors of standard of living with amount of loan of GB and Chi-square test is proved that microcredit of GB has also a positive contribution on improving standard of living in study area.

Abstract:

This study focused on urban corporate people and applied multinomial logistic regression (MLR) to identify the impact of anthropometric, biochemical, socio-demographic and dietary habit factors on health status. Health status is categorized into four levels: healthy, caution, affected, and emergent. A cross-sectional study, based on convenience sampling method, was conducted to select 271 employees from 18 institutions under the Grameen Bank Complex, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Biochemical measurements such as blood uric acid are highly significant variables in the MLR model. When holding other factors as constants, with a one-unit increase in blood uric acid, a person is 11.02 times more likely to be “emergent” compared to “caution”. The odds are also higher, at 1.82, for the blood uric acid to be “affected” compared “caution”. The results of this study can help to prevent a large proportion of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) by reducing the most significant risk factor: blood uric acid. This study can contribute to the establishment of combined actions to improve disease management.

Abstract:

The focus of this study was to measure the impact of micro-credit programme on women empowerment in Bangladesh. Six leading NGOs/MFIs which operated micro-credit programmes were considered (namely ASA, BRAC, Grameen Bank, SSS, PROSHIKA and TMSS). A total of 406 credit-receivers were randomly selected from twenty-six villages in eight districts of Bangladesh viz., Dhaka, Mymensingh, Sherpur, Netrokona, Kishoregonj, Sylhet, Lalmonirhat, and Narsingdi. The study revealed that 68.5 percent of the respondents could change their empowerment situation. By the estimated change in empowerment it was realised that 15.8 percent of the respondents experienced positive change in their empowerment situation. The main factors affecting the change in women empowerment were membership of different micro-credit organizations, poverty change due to micro-credit and use of loaned money. In single level logistic regression model, the change in poverty situation due to micro-credit had positive association with the perceived change in women empowerment. On the other hand, in multinomial regression analysis the change in poverty situation due to micro-credit had a negative impact on the estimated change in empowerment situation. This contradiction dictates for further investigation into the issue possibly at different component levels of women empowerment. Finally, this research recommended that micro-credit organizations should increase the amount of loan to at least Tk. 15000 encouraging the clients to invest in less risky business with efficient follow up programme.J.

Abstract:

<strong>Indonesian</strong><br />KUM adalah suatu kaji tindak (action research) Skim Kredit untuk golongan miskin di pedesaan Indonesia. Skim ini adalah replikasi pola Grameen Bank, Bangladesh, dengan beberapa modifikasi sesuai dengan kondisi sosial ekonomi masyarakat pedesaan Indonesia. Kaji tindak ini berlokasi di kecamatan Nanggung Bogor. Proyek ini dimulai pada bulan Januari 1989 - 1991 oleh Puslit Sosial Ekonomi Pertanian. Pada dasarnya kredit diberikan secara individu, tapi untuk memperoleh kredit calon peserta/peminjam diharuskan berkumpul dalam satu kelompok yang terdiri dari 5 orang anggota. Selama periode kaji tindak, KUM telah menjangkau 7 dari 10 desa yang ada di kecamatan Nanggung dengan total anggota sebanyak 329 orang. Dari jumlah ini 290 orang (88 persen) adalah anggota wanita dan 29 orang (12 persen) adalah anggota pria. Adapun jumlah pinjaman yang disalurkan sebanyak Rp 22.945.000,-, dengan rata-rata pinjaman per anggota adalah Rp 69.741,- dan kisaran pinjaman antara Rp 50.000, sampai Rp 125.000,- per anggota. Pelajaran yang menarik dari pengalaman kaji tindak ini adalah bahwa kendatipun kelompok sasarannya adalah golongan termiskin di pedesaan, tetapi mereka mampu mengembalikan pinjaman dengan teratur dan berdisplin. Selain itu mereka juga mampu menyisihkan sebagian penghasilannya untuk ditabung. Dengan kata lain golongan miskin di pedesaan, khususnya kaum wanita, adalah layak diberikan kredit.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to comprehensively explore and propose solutions to global economic inequities and disparities, with a particular focus on healthcare. This paper also aims to explore whether drastic reductions of inequality are justified in terms of conventional economic theory, and whether ending inequality can be viewed as ethical through certain lenses. Design/methodology/approach To seek the response to those questions, the paper uses Pareto optimality; Hicks–Kaldor model; Millian utilitarianism; the ethical theories developed by John Rawls in his 1971 work on ethics as well as his 1999 Law of People; and the capability approach developed by Noble Laureate economists Amartya Sen. As demonstrated, those equalizing works cannot support a policy that would advocate an end to global inequities. Those theories also propose no practical solutions for the end of those extreme inequities. Thus, the paper attempts to present other solutions. Findings This paper discusses two theories that are very helpful in supporting those without much wealth. Mohammad Yunus’ Grameen Bank and its provision of small free-interest loans to poor businesses (in particular women) in Bangladesh has been very successful. Another alternative advocating interest-free banking that was proposed by the proponents of binary economics is discussed. Originality/value The author believes the arguments used to support the theses of this paper be unique and novel.

Abstract:

Background Uric acid is associated with noncommunicable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, chronic kidney disease, coronary artery disease, stroke, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, vascular dementia, and hypertension. Therefore, uric acid is considered to be a risk factor for the development of noncommunicable diseases. Most studies on uric acid have been performed in developed countries, and the application of machine-learning approaches in uric acid prediction in developing countries is rare. Different machine-learning algorithms will work differently on different types of data in various diseases; therefore, a different investigation is needed for different types of data to identify the most accurate algorithms. Specifically, no study has yet focused on the urban corporate population in Bangladesh, despite the high risk of developing noncommunicable diseases for this population. Objective The aim of this study was to develop a model for predicting blood uric acid values based on basic health checkup test results, dietary information, and sociodemographic characteristics using machine-learning algorithms. The prediction of health checkup test measurements can be very helpful to reduce health management costs. Methods Various machine-learning approaches were used in this study because clinical input data are not completely independent and exhibit complex interactions. Conventional statistical models have limitations to consider these complex interactions, whereas machine learning can consider all possible interactions among input data. We used boosted decision tree regression, decision forest regression, Bayesian linear regression, and linear regression to predict personalized blood uric acid based on basic health checkup test results, dietary information, and sociodemographic characteristics. We evaluated the performance of these five widely used machine-learning models using data collected from 271 employees in the Grameen Bank complex of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Results The mean uric acid level was 6.63 mg/dL, indicating a borderline result for the majority of the sample (normal range <7.0 mg/dL). Therefore, these individuals should be monitoring their uric acid regularly. The boosted decision tree regression model showed the best performance among the models tested based on the root mean squared error of 0.03, which is also better than that of any previously reported model. Conclusions A uric acid prediction model was developed based on personal characteristics, dietary information, and some basic health checkup measurements. This model will be useful for improving awareness among high-risk individuals and populations, which can help to save medical costs. A future study could include additional features (eg, work stress, daily physical activity, alcohol intake, eating red meat) in improving prediction.

Abstract:

Across rural Bangladesh, non-governmental organizations are offering poor women economic opportunities and access to social development. Findings outlined in this article suggest the social implications of micro-credit lending via the Grameen Bank can be as powerful as the economic implications. In a village-level assessment, Grameen Bank members’ gradual social capital formation was evidenced in evolving trust and expanded networks.

Abstract:

Social Entrepreneurship is known to be effective in overcoming the problem of poverty syndrome in various countries. Perspectives on the term social entrepreneurship is growing and diverse among scholars, practitioners, and related institutions. However, they agreed that the final goal to be achieved should lead to the interests and empowerment of society. Muhammad Yunus of Bangladesh has proved the power of social entrepreneurship through the development of the mindset that every human being has marketable skills, unlimited potential, including the entrepreneurial spirit. The poverty of the people is not due to laziness or lack of skills, but the opportunity and are less favorable policy factors on them. Finally, Yunus fulfilled his dream and history has recorded his success in tackling the problem of poverty through the micro-finance institution "Grameen Bank" which he founded with courage and sincerity. It was this achievement that brought him the Nobel Prize for World Peace in 2006. Then the Grameen Bank concept inspired many nations and was applied in various countries.

Abstract:

Being a country of developing world, Bangladesh has a long-standing history of fighting poverty by means of microcredit. Thanks to the development of group lending approach of Grameen Bank established by Nobel laureate Professor Mohammad Yunus, which has later been widely accepted as an alternative to the traditional collateral based lending in extending credit facilities to the door of hard core poor at affordable terms, Bangladesh has been able to register tremendous success in alleviating poverty. Apart from Bangladesh, Grameen type microcredit programmes are now being replicated in more than 100 countries both in the developing and developed world. At the same time, Grameen has constantly been devising new entrepreneurial solutions to the problems of the poor in the name of social business- a social cause driven, non-loss, non-dividend, self-reliant business dedicated to serve the most pressing needs of the disadvantaged. Muhammad Yunus has been successful to create a global infrastructure for social business which is working as a catalyst for encouraging social business experimentations around the world. The paper will critically examine the Grameen solidarity lending mechanism and social business framework and their efficiency in approaching poverty with their cross border experiences.

Abstract:

The growth in size and significance of NGOs and particularly of Grameen Bank and the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC) in Bangladesh challenges the idealtypical relationship between the state, donors and NGOs. Such an ideal envisions a clear demarcation of roles in which NGOs compete with other NGOs for resources from the state and/or donors and one in which NGO activities and programmes are regulated or held accountable by their respective funding sources. The emergence of large multitasking NGOs in a relatively small and weak state such as Bangladesh belies this ideal. Grameen and BRAC compete with government ministries for donor funding; statal institutions designed to regulate the activities of such NGOs are functionally ineffective; and international donors face insuperable hurdles in assessing accountability.

This article presents a comparative overview of the most relevant findings from studies of the impact of microcredit institutions like the Grameen Bank and BRAC in Bangladesh. It first evaluates the evidence on economic impacts, which suggests that the vulnerability of bank members has been reduced even if there is no consensus about whether the two institutions also reduce poverty. It then considers the social impact, especially in relation to the situation of poor women and to various spill-over effects in different spheres of social and economic life.

Abstract:

International literature asserts that “micro-finance” began alleviating poverty several decades ago when organisation in Latin America, Bangladesh, and other developing nations started testing the notions of lending small amounts to impoverished people (mostly women). Professor Mohammad Younis1 of Bangladesh and his Grameen Bank brought it on to the world stage and showed how effectively it could be used to change lives. Giving loans of as little as five dollars, Grameen brought millions in to the micro credit net and in doing so lifted people, particularly the rural poor, out of abject poverty [Ayesha (2007)]. By 1980, the success of such institutions prompted many NGO’s and International Organisations to provide micro-finance services.

Abstract:

In this paper, I will argue that although local microfinance institutions and non-governmental organisations such as BRAC and Grameen Bank have played a significant part in the development and reduction of poverty in Bangladesh, some challenges remain. This paper will first present a brief background of the socioeconomic conditions of Bangladesh. The history of NGOs in the country and their transformation from primarily relief oriented agencies to being full-scale development actors will also be explored. I will analyse the relationship between the state and the non governmental agencies in delivering service to the people of Bangladesh. Furthermore, this paper will present the rise of microcredit institutions and facilities that have changed the economic landscape of Bangladesh. Finally, the essay will present the challenges that are faced by non governmental agencies in the country. This paper will bring forward the bureaucratic hurdles and the political opposition that are faced by such agencies. Public perception of NGOs will also be highlighted in this essay. I will also present the criticisms that some of the microcredit organisations such as Grameen Bank have faced due to their high emphasis on repayment of loans.

Abstract:

O objetivo deste artigo é compreender a contribuição de programas de inclusão social para a redução da vulnerabilidade social e o incremento de renda da população, com base na análise dos programas Próspera (México) e Grameen Bank (Bangladesh). Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa dos dados coletados por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Pela literatura e documentação pesquisadas, foi possível identificar fortes evidências de que tanto o programa de inclusão social Próspera quanto o Grameen Bank têm contribuído para a redução da vulnerabilidade social e o incremento da renda dos beneficiados. Contudo, os seus resultados estão condicionados às questões de contexto e dependem de ações integradas e programas complementares.

Abstract:

The study is an attempt to examine the socio-economic effects of microfinance of Grameen Bank (GB) on borrower households in the study area. It investigates socio-economic changes occurred among the borrower households in the reference time period. In this regard this study collects required information from 168 respondents in the study area using a structured questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by using statistical techniques such as descriptive statistics, ANOVA test, Participation Impact Score (PIS) and Standardized Participation Impact Score (SPIS). The ANOVA test is performed to examine the association between microcredit and various socio-economic factors of borrower households and GB’s loan amount. Analysis of the study show that average monthly income, average monthly expenditure, total savings, asset value and other socio-economic status of borrower households increased after joining the groups of Grameen Bank (GB). The results of PIS or SPIS indicate that ‘improved participation in family decision-making’ received the highest score among selected 16 items impacts areas while ‘increased counting ability’ bears the lowest score. In spite of some barriers of GB’s microcredit, it has a positive contribution on socio-economic status of the borrower households in terms of increased income generation and improved livelihood of the borrower households.

Abstract:

This article provides a description of the survival strategies of very poor women in Bangladesh, including networking, buying and selling goods, preparing foods for sale, bartering, selling their own and their children's labour, fishing and gathering food and fuel, and money lending. Katona-Apte stresses that programmes can build on successful coping strategies and provides examples of how this might work, including extending women credit for income-generating schemes. Like Rogers and Youssef, she mentions the experience of the Grameen Bank in lending to poor women to demonstrate that they are good credit risks. The article outlines the cultural and economic reasons why so many women are destitute in Bangladesh. It also describes the disproportionate and oppressive social burden they carry in their patriarchal society.

Abstract:

Muhammad Yunus gilt als der Erfinder des derzeitigen Systems der Vergabe von Kleinstkrediten ohne Sicherheit an Arme. Seine Vision ist: „Eine Welt ohne Armut wäre keine perfekte Welt, aber sie käme dem Ideal ziemlich nahe. Und es wäre eine Welt, in der zu leben sich lohnte.“ Mikrofinanz ist keine neue Erfindung, sondern hat einen Vorgänger im Raiffeisen-Modell, das Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts entstand und erfolgreich praktiziert wurde, als die wirtschaftlichen Bedingungen in Deutschland und weiteren europäischen Ländern ähnlich schwierig waren wie in neuerer Zeit in Bangladesch und vielen anderen Entwicklungsregionen. Für die revolutionäre Neubelebung der Armutsbekämpfung durch Mikrokredite wurden Yunus und seine Grameen-Bank mit dem Friedensnobelpreis geehrt.

Abstract:

RESUMO A liberalização acabou por não ser suficiente para garantir a prestação de serviços financeiros aos pobres, especialmente pequenas e microempresas. Instituições especiais, como o Grameen Bank, em Bangladesh, experimentaram com sucesso tecnologias de crédito e estruturas de governança que mostravam a viabilidade de instituições que são ao mesmo tempo comercialmente sustentáveis e orientadas para grupos-alvo. As estratégias recentes centram-se na atualização de fundos rotativos de ONGs, na redução de escala de bancos comerciais e de desenvolvimento e a partir do zero com instituições especializadas.

Abstract:

This study examines the case of the money marketing communication used by Islamic banks to promote Grameen Bank products. Grameen Bank is a form of financing model for providing capital by a bank to a group of people who have a lack of ability in terms of economics. This study aims to determine the marketing mix model used by BTPN Syariah in attracting the interest of the underprivileged community, especially for women to join the PMD program. This is achieved through qualitative research methods with a case study approach. In searching for data, the researcher conducted semi-structured interviews and passive participant observation. The sampling used in this research is snowball sampling. This study uses the basic theory of Symbolic Interaction proposed by George Herbert Mead. This research was conducted on women entrepreneur communities in Jatisampurna and Bantar Gebang. The results of this study are the concept of the marketing mix used, including events and experiences, namely by holding exhibitions and roadshows, world of mouth marketing, using opinion leaders and group meetings, sales promotion girls with sales promotions placed to foster business groups, and by installing advertisements both with print catalog ads (print out advertising) as well as advertisements with digital platforms on YouTube. The marketing strategy used focuses on offline, this is because the target market of Grameen Bank has not yet touched the digital platform.

Abstract:

In 2011, the government of Bangladesh began an investigation into the financial dealings of the Grameen Bank that won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006. This disciplining of a world-renowned institution and its founder by the state reconfigures the altered relationship between the state and NGOs in Bangladesh. This article investigates this about-face between the state and NGOs from the 1990s, when their relationship was characterized as ‘partners in development’, to the late 2000s when the state saw the leading NGOs and their leaders as potential political adversaries. In Bangladesh, the former relationship of a weak state vis-à-vis the powerful, western-funded NGO has been recalibrated. Under the present condition of authoritarian rule, the state is willing to accept the role of the NGO as a development actor but not as a political contender. This article examines this shifting relationship between the state and NGOs.
