[Reader-list] UID Project: 50 crores for marketing not education

[Kshmendra Kaul]

Dear Yunus
 
Thank you for sharing your well knit-together film. Informative. Educative. Sensible perspectives. Clear contrast between truly "Responsible Finance" and such "Finance Companies" who have simply taken over the business of the explotative Moneylender.
 
"Are we banking for the poor for their development? Or, we are banking with the poor for our development"
 
Thanks
 
Kshmendra

Interesting news,

let me draw your attention towards a similar attempt to educate 'people' i.e
*Financial Literacy.*
**
Financial inclusion is gaining  attention in India these days. The self help
movement that started in 80's got converted into microfinance because  it is
easy to measures money as indicators of development. Traditional money
lenders have been replaced by Non banking finance companies and now Foreign
investors want to exploit the bottom of the pyramid. financial literacy have
been advocated by the Microfinance giants to solve the problem of, multiple
lending, un-ethical recovery and exploitative credit culture.

Take a quick view of  the issues in the Microfinance sector india.
