Book Synopsis How Cooperative are Savings and Credit Cooperatives in Developing Countries? by : Oliver Schmidt

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building successful savings and credit cooperatives (SACCOs) that actually embody the cooperative principles is a challenge to development agencies. Although SACCOs form the majority of microfinance providers in many developing countries, the most recent literature on microfinance governance and performance has given little reference to the longstanding body of relevant cooperative literature. SACCO representation in microfinance datasets is biased. Drawing on so-far unexploited datasets of Ugandan SACCOs and savings groups, this paper empirically analyses policy debate regarding SACCO- and savings group regulation. The findings point to the relevance of practically implementing the principle of 'cooperation between cooperatives' to ensure effective governance at SACCO level. Moreover, the paper introduces two new measures, based on members' savings and shares, which could become useful tools to track the application of cooperative principles in developing countries, and hence improve evidence-based policy-making for SACCOs.
Book Synopsis The Efficiency of Multi-tier Savings and Credit Cooperatives in Developing Countries by : Marcel Gounot
Download or read book The Efficiency of Multi-tier Savings and Credit Cooperatives in Developing Countries written by Marcel Gounot and published by Peter Lang Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a means of fighting poverty, the support of microfinance institutions has gained major significance in development aid. However, the widespread expectation that these institutions would quickly become self-sustaining has so far only rarely been fulfilled. This applies in particular to multi-tier savings and credit cooperatives, whose way of functioning is examined in the present study using innovative organisation- and cost-analysis instruments. The analysis reveals the dominance of the upper institutional levels, which attempt to position themselves as intermediaries for public development aid and as a result generate extremely inefficient operations, instead of providing efficient support services for the lower level institutions. To enable multi-tier savings and credit cooperatives to develop their full potential, radical reforms and a change of attitude on the part of the cooperative managers and international donors are needed.

Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2020 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: Rite, University of Koblenz-Landau (KOBLENZ-LANDAU UNIVERSITY , School of social sciences, department of Economics), course: PhD Dissertation, language: English, abstract: This study examines the contribution of saving and credit cooperatives (SACCOS) on the improvement of members’ socio economic development in Rwanda. The appearance of saving and credit cooperatives or credit unions has been known as remedy for social ills rooted in poverty because of its efficiency in loans or credits dispensation, social equality for enhancement and reduction of poverty among low income earners. Therefore, millions and millions of poor people and non-bankable in developing countries (or third world countries) have been provided access to formal financial services through saving and credit cooperatives’ programs. The targeted population concerned by the study was 1,940 members of USACCO from which a sample of 92 respondents was purposely selected. The study has adopted a combination of correlation and descriptive research design. It has employed both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The study used both primary and secondary data. The primary data was collected using questionnaire and interview and, while secondary data was collected using documentations techniques whereby, Manual of procedures and Credit policies of USACCO and financial reports have been consulted. The analysis of data was done using SPSS version 21.

Book Synopsis How should rural financial cooperatives be best organized? Evidence from Ethiopia by : Abay, Kibrom A.
Download or read book How should rural financial cooperatives be best organized? Evidence from Ethiopia written by Abay, Kibrom A. and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the optimal size and composition of Rural Financial Cooperatives (RFCs)? With this broad question in mind, we characterize alternative formation of RFCs and their implications in improving the access of rural households to financial services, including savings, credit, and insurance services. We find that some features of RFCs have varying implications for delivering various financial services. The size of RFCs is found to have a nonlinear relationship with the various financial services RFCs provide. We also show that compositional heterogeneity among members, including diversity in wealth, is associated with higher access to credit services, while this has little implication on households’ savings behavior. Similarly, social cohesion among members is strongly associated with higher access to financial services. These empirical descriptions suggest that the optimal size and composition of RFCs may vary across the domains of financial services they are designed to facilitate. This evidence provides suggestive insights on how to ensure financial inclusion among smallholders, a pressing agenda and priority of policy makers in developing countries, including Ethiopia. The results also provide some insights into rural microfinance operations which are striving to satisfy members’ demand for financial services.
Book Synopsis The Economics of Financial Cooperatives by : Amr Khafagy
Download or read book The Economics of Financial Cooperatives written by Amr Khafagy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on theories of finance and distribution, and the political economy of finance, this book explains the influence of financial cooperatives on wealth and income distribution, and institutional factors that determine the development of financial cooperatives. The book discusses the dynamics of income and wealth distribution with and without financial cooperatives, and defines the economic objective for financial cooperatives. Through explaining the influence of political institutions and regulations on the development of financial cooperatives, this book examines why financial cooperatives grew in some emerging economies and not in other similar ones. The book is of interest to scholars interested in financial economics, political economy of finance, alternative banking and development finance, and banking regulation. The book also gives valuable output to central bankers and financial and monetary policy makers in underdeveloped economies. In addition, it will be of particular interest to practitioners in international development institutions, especially those engaged in development finance and rural finance.

Book Synopsis Cooperating Out of Poverty by : International Labour Office
Download or read book Cooperating Out of Poverty written by International Labour Office and published by International Labour Office. This book was released on 2008 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cooperatives are omnipresent in Africa and represent a significant part of the private sector in most African countries. Successful and economically viable cooperatives create economic opportunities, provide a basic level of social protection and security, and provide their members with voice and representation. Yet, there are weaknesses and deficiencies of cooperatives in certain countries or sectors that result in poor performance. This book offers an objective analysis of the state of affairs of the cooperative sector in Africa since the liberalization of the economy in the early 1990s. It contains a historical overview of cooperative development in the continent and in-depth country studies that illustrate not only the structure and operation of the cooperative sector, but also analyse the major strengths and weaknesses of various cooperative undertakings in Africa. The aim of this book is to alert governments, donors and researchers to a fragmented, dispersed movement and make a case for the viability of cooperatives in Africa
Book Synopsis Financial Cooperatives and Local Development by : Silvio Goglio
Download or read book Financial Cooperatives and Local Development written by Silvio Goglio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the opportunities opened up for financial cooperatives by the recent financial crisis, and explores the role of these institutions in promoting and sustaining local development. The global financial crisis has not only shown the limits of the mainstream theory of markets and rational expectations, but has also generated a great deal of disillusionment with the banking system and underlined the importance of a healthy society for the welfare of the individual. Consequently, new and innovative ways of providing finance are needed, especially for strengthening the development of local societies.
