Download or read book Safe Money written by Beatriz Marulanda and published by Inter-American Development Bank. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policymakers in Latin America increasingly are turning to policies that have high economic rates of return and a favorable impact on income distribution. By providing financial services to small businesses and poor households -which normally lack such services- credit unions help secure growth with equity. The challenges faced by Latin America's credit unions today are likely to force them to further modernize and consolidate, fine tune their inherent advantages, improve mechanisms for prudential regulation, and find ways to increase their share of low and middle-income markets. Safe Money presents the new thinking on how credit unions can compete effectively in modern financial markets while still retaining their social mission.

Download or read book Our Money Our Movement written by Alana Albee and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Credit and savings mechanisms are becoming a powerful tool in development, but many initiatives are only now aiming for the ownership of these mechanisms to be in the hands of the borrowers themselves. Our Money, Our Movement describes how this goal has already been reached by the Women's Credit Union in Sri Lanka. It challenges the more conventional 'delivery' approach to development by illustrating how financial services can be controlled and managed by the poor, rather than delivered to them, an approach which has long been a fundamental tenet of the credit union movement. This is essential and inspiring reading for development agency staff, and others either interested in people's movements or involved in credit and savings initiatives.

Download or read book Credit Cooperative Institutions in European Countries written by Simeon Karafolas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comparative analysis of credit cooperative systems across 23 European countries. Cooperative banking has an important place in the financial, economic and social life of most European countries, and while cooperative banks, credit mutuals, credit cooperatives and credit unions share the spirit of cooperation and mutuality, they often have very different features, history and development. The book examines the evolution and current model of each credit cooperative system, its importance for the national and local banking markets, as well as the impact of the financial crisis on cooperative banking, and also presents the sharp contrasts between these systems throughout the EU. It is of significant scientific and practical interest and enables policymakers, practitioners and academics at European and national levels to deepen their understanding of the evolution of the system and its governance.

Download or read book Humaninsing Work written by Chris Beales and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the search for meaning in work matter? - and is it even possible to ask such a question against a backdrop of mass youth unemployment, widespread poverty and growing inequality? Drawing on the experience of the Mondragon co-operatives in Spain and other innovative models of employment and enterprise from around the world - and the visions and values derived from his faith - Chris Beales explores how 'work' might be humanised and education and employment made not only responsive to what the Economy needs but also purposeful, satisfying and rewarding for people. "Chris Beales is, in equal part, activist, campaigner and theologian. He is also a classic example of what Antonio Gramsci famously described as the 'organic intellectual': his work is important, and should be read by policymakers, practitioners and others concerned with promoting social justice." From the Foreword by Prof Robin Simmons, Professor of Education, University of Huddersfield.
