Abstract:

From a contextual and service users’ perspective, this thesis investigates the poverty reducing effect of microfinance including the implementation processes and features of microfinance. Poverty is in this study conceptualised as ‘capability deprivation’ so that poverty reduction is achieved through improved capabilities for the poor. The literature review on microfinance begins with an attempt to locate the reasons for microfinance within the context of the finance-development and credit rationing literature. It also recognises the institutional-based approach to understanding the exclusion

Abstract:

Thesis (MDF)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>This study examines the default rate and performance of Microfinance bank (MFBs) loans to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Nigeria based on the case study of Accion Microfinance Bank Limited (AMFB), Lagos State. Responses from 150 employees of AMFB revealed that the causes of default rate and performance of SMEs reflect the risk and vulnerability of the SME sector in Nigeria. It further showed that MFBs apply stringent credit criteria in granting loans to SME borrowers, coupled with the existing high cost of funds. The attitude, lack of tra

Abstract:

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2011.<br>Little research has yet been undertaken in South Africa about commercial banks that are servicing the microenterprise market. The objective for the current research was to investigate the key factors that should be considered by commercial banks in South Africa servicing the microenterprise market. The focus for the study was on identifying the key factors and on investigating how the key factors were being considered. There are a number of case studies documenting the key factors that international commercial banks have considered. However

Abstract:

<p>Microfinance is not a new development. Its origin can be traced back to 1976, when Muhammad Yunus set up the Grameen Bank, as experiment, on the outskirts of Chittagong University campus in the village of Jobra, Bangladesh. Since then several microfinance institutions came up and have succeeded in reaching the poorest of the poor, and have devised new ground-breaking strategies with time for the fulfillment of their vision. These included the provision of collateral free loans to poor people, especially in rural areas, at full-cost interest rates that are repayable in frequent installments.

Abstract:

This research explored the adoption and implementation of Sustainable Construction (SC) at the strategic and operational levels by construction firms in Nigeria. It is argued that developing countries (DCs) stand to gain immensely from the pursuit of efficiency in resource utilization, energy, reducing waste and pollution and consideration for local communities which are central concerns of sustainability. Literature indicates that while the sustainability agenda offers advantages for DCs, its adoption and implementation is more prevalent in the developed world. Questions then arise as to whet

Abstract:

This study investigates the effective measurement of employee commitment within the Nigerian banking sector. The relevance of the research originates from various research findings that shows that in most organisations, evidence abounds of employees' emotional and physiological distancing of themselves from their organisation even when the pay is highly competitive. In addition, there are also evidences of inconsistencies in research outcomes when Western commitment scale is employed within non-Western organisation. This study is therefore aimed at filling literature gaps on identified inconsi

Full text

Abstract:

This study is concerned with the issue of international technology transfer, particularly to developing countries through licensing. Given the imperfect nature of technology market, multinational enterprises (MNEs) wield considerable amount of bargaining power in the negotiation of technology transfer arrangements with both related and unrelated parties. However, the intervention of host governements [sic] in the negotiation processes increases the complexity of the bargaining power issue. This aspect of transfer negotiation which is largely ignored in the literature, stems from "perceived nee

The purpose of this study was to identify the curricula emphases of home economics in Oyo state secondary schools, and to analyze the relationship between subject matter emphasis and selected aspects about teaching and the teacher. Sixty-two home economics teachers in Oyo state, Nigeria, responded to a mailed survey asking them to indicate the degree of emphasis given to 50 topics in five subject matter areas of home economics: Human Development and the Family, Home Management and Family Economics, Foods and Nutrition, Textiles and Clothing, and Housing. The most taught subject matter area wa

Abstract:

The management of Nigeria high schools are noted for administrative practices in the management of their schools; hence the term administration is commonly used in their daily operations. This fact on ‘administration’ was emphasised by the Nigerian government in the National Policy on Education (Nigeria, 1981, p. 21). Therefor as a researcher from Nigeria, my rationale for embarking on this research study was to find out to what extent a public high school in Nigeria was still operating in a hierarchical, individualistic, authoritarian style of leadership or whether it has started embracing co

Abstract:

<p>Within the field of microfinance, there has been an ongoing debate about whether microfinance institutions should be commercialized. One side argues that a business that very much can earn profits at the same time as it helps the poor, is not justified to receive charity, but should be run with the risks and benefits of any other profit-seeking business.</p><p>The other side argues that the outreach to the ones who most need microfinance, is severely hampered if firms are profit-seeking; arguing that they only target the individuals who allow them to make profits.</p><p> </p><p>This study i
