Microcredit and Poverty AlleviationAshgate Publishing, Ltd., 2007 - 185 من الصفحات The book examines the Grameen Bank's impact in alleviating poverty and its role in enhancing the skills and productivity of its rural women clients. The book's findings demonstrate that while the Grameen Bank's credit-alone policy has been successful in securing the Bank's financial sustainability, its role in alleviating poverty and enhancing the productivity of its clients has been less satisfactory. This book concludes by considering alternative policy options that hold out the possibility of increased poverty alleviation. |
