Now available, on this blog, my abstract showing how the savings guarantee model, prooftested for 34 years during my career of microfinance expert, can entrepreneurially intervene in the deepest service of human needs.
Ask me to post you a copy, and if you like it lets discuss it in each city, rural or urban groups, to start designing social businesses in community contexts that matter most to you.
The challenge is to build capacity in the financial sector by focusing on a very large range of activities, and building sound institutions through human resource and systems development. These themes are reflected in this statement - SAVINGS & SAVINGS GUARANTEE , APEX MICROFINANCE INSTITUTION in EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENT - whose chief objective is to support the deepening and diversification of financial markets to serve the the broad spectrum of rural small holders and micro entrepreneurs, including the self-employed poor.
