9. Current scenario
 This sector also provide direct employment to more than 50
thousands while in indirectly to more 100,000 job opportunities in
different fields
 Many cooperative suffer from unsound investment in risky areas
,where there are no returns
Most cooperative lack professional management and plagued by the
lack adequate knowledge, principles and practices of cooperatives

10. people are more attracted to cooperative because the returns are
higher and they provide high level services by going to the clients
house
 The interest rates are high so if u take loan and investment in other
project then you will have difficult to gets returns
It charges interest as well as different types of fee on loan( loan fee,
membership fee, aawhan fee, organization development fee, valuation
fee, other fee)

11. How can cooperative activities be
financed
Directly from members themselves
 one-time or annual membership fees
· member contributions with no individual ownership attached, such as service fees.
· member share capital
· individual member deposits with the cooperative which may be used for business
· deferred payment to members for part or all of their produce delivered to the cooperative
 From retained surpluses generated by the cooperative business
From outsiders
 grant
short-term loan
long-term loan
trade credit offered by a supplier.

12. Problems in Co-operatives
The development of cooperatives is not satisfactory in Nepal
Reasons:
Lack of clarity about mission, national vision and adequate monitoring on the
part of government with respect to cooperative movement
Lack of managerial skills and professionalism, sound planning and
implementation
Lack of working capital, appropriate research, extension and education about
cooperative movement
Lack of creditability.

13. Conclusions and suggestions
A cooperative organization can carry out its functions only after its
registration under the cooperative act 2048
 The Government has announce to celebrate cooperative year 2012
Many cooperative Suffer from unsound investment in risky areas where
there are no returns
 Most Cooperative lack professional management and are plagued by the
lack of adequate knowledge ,principles and practices of cooperative

14. Appropriate governmental policies and programs, rules and regulations, credit
availability, insurance policies, and governmental support systems should be in
place for a successful cooperative movement.
Government should recognized good cooperative and reward where as the bad
ones must be given a time or framework to improve
Encourage to form the Cooperative rural areas rather than the valley or city
based
 Necessary to provide the training and guideline from the smooth functioning of
the cooperative
