Small Customers, Big Market: Commercial Banks in Microfinance
- Used Book in Good Condition
* First comprehensive look at commercial bank experience in microfinance
* Shows commercial opportunities for banks in a new market
* Worldwide case studies and applicability
This book shows commercial bankers that they can profitably provide microfinance services to the poor. It illustrates, through the experience of particular banks, why banks have become involved and how they have made a success of their involvement.
The eighteen case studies all show that banks can earn good profits at the same time as serving the needs of people who previously lacked access to financial services.
The authors also demonstrate to foreign aid donors, policy makers, NGO staff and microfinance practitioners that it is often quicker, less expensive and more effective for microfinance services to be provided by commercial banks than by specialist microfinance institutions
Countries covered — Bangladesh, Benin, Ecuador, Egypt, George, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Kosovo, Mongolia, Pakistan, Philippines, and Zimbabwe.

What effect with the current market crisis have on my credit cards?
Question by happydawg: What effect with the current market crisis have on my credit cards?
I have several credit cards. Most of them have a zero balance. I do notice the credit card companies keep sending me blank checks wanting me to take advantage of low interest rates theyre offering.
Will the financial troubles have any effect on my credit cards? If so, what?
Best answer:
Answer by Tom P
The government is talking about eliminating 0% interest teaser rates on credit cards. This is probably why we are getting those blank checks with 0% interest right now. It is possible that credit card companies may lower credit limits, and even cancel the accounts of some customers in order to reduce bad debt liabilities. There is likely to be a wave of credit card defaults in the near future, which may trigger some of this activity. If you have a good relationship with your credit card companies I doubt you will be personally affected.
Good Luck.
