Abstract:
This case makes a comparison between two banks involved in social banking using microfinance. Both banks aspire to enable people in poverty and small enterprises to obtain small loans. Both banks are committed to providing access to the money and credit for these individuals and their small enterprises. The case examines the similarities and differences of the banks and raises questions about the long term viability of their mission and for how long stockholders and contributors will be willing to forego satisfactory earnings to support the banks social missions and the future of social banking and both banks.
