The document also outlines the objectives and methodology of a study analyzing borrower satisfaction with Grameen Bank's loan settlement procedures.
Use of technologies in the banking sector of BangladeshMasum Hussain
Among the financial service industry, the banking sector was one of the first to embrace rapid globalization and benefits significantly from technology development. The technological revolution in banking started in the 1950s, with the installation of the first automated bookkeeping machines at banks. This was well before the other industries became tech savvy. The first Automated Teller Machine (ATM) is reported to have been introduced in the USA in 1968 with only a cash dispenser. Automation in banking have become widespread over the past few decades as banks quickly realized that much of their labor intensive information-handling processes could be automated the use of computers. Against this background the paper examines the Technology driven banking services reference to the present and future of Technology driven banking in Bangladesh.

Report on summer internship project of Himalayan Bank Limited.priyanka sarraf
A SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROJECT ON “A Comparative study of Himalayan Bank Ltd. and Everest Bank Ltd., with special reference to customer feedback on product and services offered by Himalayan Bank Limited”
After the Liberation War and the eventual independence of Bangladesh, the Government of Bangladesh reorganized the Dhaka branch of the State Bank of Pakistan as the central bank of the country, naming it Bangladesh Bank. This reorganization was done pursuant to Bangladesh Bank Order, 1972, and the Bangladesh Bank came into existence retroactively from 16 December 1971.
The story behind the first concerted effort to make financing accessible to the world’s poorest is the stuff of folklore. Befitting the goal of poverty alleviation, the setting for this early experiment was a time of great tragedy in Bangladesh, one of the poorest countries in the world. A small country in the Indian subcontinent with a population of 130 million, a gross national product (GNP) per capita of about $300 and a literacy rate of only 38 percent for those over 15 years of age, 1 Bangladesh experienced drought and famine in 1974 that killed 1.5 million people (Macfarlane 2002). Having recently completed studies as a Fulbright scholar in the United States, Professor Mohammad Yunus was lecturing on economic theory at Chittagong University and growing increasingly frustrated at his inability to ease his neighbours’ suffering.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2.1 Company profile:
Grameen Bank has inverted conventional banking practice by removing the need for
collateral and created a banking system based on mutual trust, accountability,
participation and creativity. GB provides credit to the poorest of the poor in rural
Bangladesh, without any collateral. At GB, credit is a cost effective weapon to fight
poverty and it serves as a catalyst in the overall development of socioeconomic
conditions of the poor who have been kept outside the banking orbit on the grounds that
they are poor and hence not bankable. Professor Muhammad Yunus, the founder of
'Grameen Bank' and its Managing Director, reasoned that if financial resources can be
made available to the poor people on terms and conditions that are appropriate and
reasonable, 'these millions of small people with their millions of small pursuits can add
up to create the biggest development wonder.
Grameen Bank has total number of borrowers is 6.95 million, 97 percent of them are
women. With 2,568 branches. It works in 75,359 villages; Total staff is 21,363 in
Bangladesh.
Grameen Bank’s positive impact on its poor and formerly poor borrowers has been
documented in many independent studies carried out by external agencies including the
World Bank, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and the
Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies (BIDS).
2.2 History:
Grammen Bank Grammen Bank was founded by Prof. Muhammad Yunus.He was born
in 28th June, 1940 in the village of Bathua, in Hathazari, Chittagong, the business center
of what was then Eastern Bengal. He was the third of 14 children of whom five died in
infancy. His father was a Successful goldsmith who always encouraged his sons to seek
higher education. But his biggest influence was his mother. Sufia Khatun, who always
helped any poor that knocked on their door. This inspired himself to eradication of
poverty. His early childhood years were spent in the village. In 1947, his family moved
7. 7
Borrower satisfaction on loan settlement procedure of Grameen Bank
to the city of Chittagong, where his father had the jeweler business.
In 1974 professor Muhammad yunus, a Bangladeshi economist
from Chittagong University, led his students on a field trip to a poor
village. They interview a woman who made bamboo stools, and
learn that she had to borrow the equivalent of 15p to buy raw
bamboo for each stool made. After repaying the middleman,
sometimes at rates as high as 10% a week, she was let with a penny
profit margin. Had she been able to borrow at more advantage rates,
she would have been able to mass an economic cushion and raise
herself above subsistence level.
Realizing that there must be something terribly wrong with the
economics he was teaching, Yunus took matters into his own hands and from his own
pocket lent the equivalent of 17 to 42 basket – weavers. He found that it was possible with
this tiny amount not only to help them survive, but also to create the spark of personal
initiative and enterprise necessary to pull themselves out of poverty.
Against the advice of bank and government, Yunus carried on giving out ‘micro-loans’,
and in 1983 formed the Grameen Bank, meaning ‘village bank’ founded on principles of
trust and solidarity. Against the advice of banks and government, Yunus carried on giving

with 21,751 staff serving 8.81 million borrowers in 81,392 villages. On any working day
Grameen collects an average of $1.5 million in weekly installments. Of the borrowers, 97%
are women and over 97% of the loans are paid back, a recovery rate higher than any other
banking system. Grameen methods are applied in projects in 58 countries, including the
US, Canada, France, the Netherlands and Norway.

trees, etc., so that they are able to fall back on these sources of income when they
need additional money.
8. The borrower maintains an average annual balance of Tk. 5,000 in her savings
accounts.
9. Family experiences no difficulty in having three square meals a day throughout the

2.6.3 Credit Delivery System:
Grameen Bank Credit Delivery means taking credit to the very poor in their villages by
means of the essential elements of the Grameen credit delivery system.
Grameen Bank credit delivery system has the following features:
There is an exclusive focus on the poorest of the poor.
Exclusivity is ensured by:
1) Establishing clearly the eligibility criteria for selection of targeted clientele
and adopting practical measures to screen out those who do not meet them.
2) In delivering credit, priority has been increasingly assigned to women.
3) The delivery system is geared to meet the diverse socio-economic
development needs of the poor.
Borrowers are organized into small homogeneous groups.
Such characteristics facilitate group solidarity as well as participatory interaction.
Organizing the primary groups of five members and federating them into centers
has been the foundation of Grameen Bank’s system. The emphasis from the very
outset is to organizationally strengthen the Grameen clientele, so that they can
acquire the capacity for planning and implementing micro level development
decisions. The Centers are functionally linked to the Grameen Bank; whose field
workers have to attend Centre meetings every week.
Special loan conditionality’s which are particularly suitable for the poor.
Include:

This is reflected in the “sixteen decisions” adopted by Grameen borrowers. This
helps to:
1) Raise the social and political consciousness of the newly organized groups,
2) Focus increasingly on women from the poorest households, whose urge for
survival has a far greater bearing on the development of the family,
3) Encourage their monitoring of social and physical infrastructure projects –
housing, sanitation, drinking water, education, family planning, etc.
Expansion of loan portfolio to meet diverse development needs of the poor.
As the general credit programmer gathers momentum and the borrowers become
familiar with credit discipline, other loan programmers are introduced to meet growing
social and economic development needs of the clientele. Besides housing, such
programmers include:
1) Credit for building sanitary latrines
2) Credit for installation of tube-wells that supply drinking water and irrigation for
kitchen gardens
3) Credit for seasonal cultivation to buy agricultural inputs
4) Loan for leasing equipment / machinery, i.e., cell phones purchased by Grameen
Bank members
5) Finance projects undertaken by the entire family of a seasoned borrower.

2.8 Whats differences between Grameen bank and conventional bank?
Grameen Bank methodology is almost the reverse of the conventional banking
methodology. Conventional banking is based on the principle that the more you have,
the more you can get. In other words, if you have little or nothing, you get nothing. As
a result, more than half the population of the world is deprived of the financial services
of the conventional banks. Conventional banking is based on collateral, Grameen
system is collateral- free. Grameen Bank starts with the belief that credit should be
accepted as a human right, and builds a system where one who does not possess
anything gets the highest priority in getting a loan. Grameen methodology is not based
on assessing the material possession of a person, it is based on the potential of a person.
Grameen believes that all human beings, including the poorest, are endowed with
endless potential.
Conventional banks look at what has already been acquired by a person. Grameen looks
at the potential that is waiting to be unleashed in a person. Conventional banks are
owned by the rich, generally men. Grameen Bank is owned by poor women.
Overarching objective of the conventional banks is to maximize profit. Grameen
Bank’s objective is to bring financial services to the poor, particularly women and the
poorest to help them fight poverty, stay profitable and financially sound. It is a
composite objective, coming out of social and economic visions. Conventional banks
focus on men, Grameen gives high priority to women. 97 per cent of Grameen Bank’s
borrowers are women. Grameen Bank works to raise the status of poor women in their
families by giving them ownership of assets. It makes sure that the ownership of the
houses built with Grameen Bank loans remain with the borrowers, i.e., the women.

2.9 Poverty Reduction Strategy:
Profitable and sustainable financial intermediation is possible with the poor, who are
otherwise excluded from the formal credit system because of lack of collateral, and poverty
reduction is possible through targeted credit. This is the key finding of an ongoing study of
the Grameen Bank conducted jointly by the World Bank and the Bangladesh Institute of
Development Studies. This study uses aggregate and branch- level data of Grameen Bank
for 1985 through 1993 to determine how the Bank operates, at what cost, and whether its
program is sustainable and replicable. The study uses village-level data to examine macro-
level effects, such as the Bank's impact on rural wages. The study also uses household
survey data to examine household and intrahousehold impacts on income, employment,
asset accumulation, nutrition, health, and education. Some of the findings of this study are
reported below.
Strategies for Poverty Reduction:
Grameen Bank believes that lack of access to credit is the biggest constraint for the
rural poor. If the poor are provided credit on reasonable terms, they themselves best
know how to increase their incomes. Grameen Bank targets and mobilizes the poor and
creates social and financial conditions so that they receive credit by identifying a source
of self-employment in familiar rural non-farm activities. The Bank's method of
targeting the poor is effective as it mobilizes only those who are willing to bear the
costs of group formation, training, and monitoring each other's activities, and those who
are satisfied with the relatively small sums they can borrow and repay. To better meet
its ultimate goal of social and economic development, Grameen Bank targets women
more than men. By doing so, it directly channels credit to the poorest and the least
empowered and helps improve the living standards of their families. Along with
providing credit, Grameen Bank offers guidelines to members for codes of conduct and
activities aimed at improving their social and financial conditions. It also provides
training to women in maternal health, nutrition, and childcare to generate greater
demand for basic health care services.
24. 24
Borrower satisfaction on loan settlement procedure of Grameen Bank
Strategies for Financial Intermediation:
Lending entails high risk of loan default due to adverse selection of borrowers and
disability of lenders to enforce the loan contracts. Contrary to the practice of formal
finance, Grameen Bank lends (in small amounts) to the poor based on group
responsibility where individual access to credit depends on group repayment
behavior. Group lending uses peer pressure to monitor and enforce contracts and
helps screen good borrowers from bad ones. Unlike other development banks,
Grameen Bank mobilizes savings as an integral part of lending. Each member is
required to save Taka 1 each week and buy a Grameen Bank share worth Taka 100.
In addition, each borrower contributes 5 percent of the loan amount to a group fund
and Taka 5 for every 1,000 Takas above loan size greater than Taka 1,000 to an
emergency fund. These savings mobilization schemes provide protection of loans
against default, an internal source of finance, and a stake for the members in Bank
operations.
Grameen's Success in Poverty Reduction:
While sophisticated econometric analysis is underway, preliminary analysis
suggests that Grameen Bank has generated a number of benefits both at the
household and village level. At the household level, the benefits from program
participation include changes in income, employment, assets accumulation, net
worth, and other household welfare indicators (such as contraceptive use, school
enrollment of children, etc.). Program participation has enabled members to
enhance their assets and net worth. For example, a program participating household
25. 25
Borrower satisfaction on loan settlement procedure of Grameen Bank
owns 56 percent more resources and 51 percent more net worth than a nonparticipating
household. Program participation has also increased calorie intake, especially among
female household members. The incidence of poverty is substantially reduced among
program participants. Labor force participation, especially among women, is higher
among participants than nonparticipants; women's labor force participation is 66
percent among program participants compared to 52 percent for non-participants. The
school participation rate of girls is also higher for participants (57 percent) than for
nonparticipants (36 percent). Program participation also increases the use of
contraceptives, better toilet facilities, and better drinking water. In addition, program
placement generates income gains for the poor as a whole through its impacts on the
local resource allocation. For example, the daily male wage is 23 percent higher in
program villages compared with no program villages. Even after controlling for village
characteristics, the study finds that up to 11 percent of the 23 percent wage increase is
due to Grameen Bank program placement.
Grameen's Replicability:
The group-based lending is replicable in other countries where the market failure
requires credit to be targeted but the existing financial institutions cannot be used to
deliver credit. The model is also desirable if financial intermediation requires social
mobilization such as organization, and imperfect information and imperfect
enforcement make lending highly risky and costly. In order to successfully replicate
group- based lending for poverty alleviation, the poor may need organizational help and
other inputs to improve their income and productivity. But providing such inputs are
costly for an organization which may also need experimentation to determine the modus
operandi of an appropriate delivery mechanism. However, the poor are not likely to be
capable of bearing the full costs associated with program adaptation and
implementation. Thus, successful replication depends on the availability of subsidized
funds at the initial stage and above all, on the creativity and commitment of the
leadership.

3.1 Customer Satisfaction:
Definition: Customer satisfaction is a judgement that a product or service feature, or the
product or service itself, provides a pleasurable movement is called customer satisfaction.
Philip Kotler: defines customer satisfaction as a 'person's feeling of pleasure or
disappointment which resulted from comparing a product's perceived performance or
outcome against his/her expectations'.
Business always starts and closes with customers and hence the customers must be treated
as the King of the market. All the business enhancements, profit, status, image etc. of the
organization depends on customers. Hence it is important for all the organizations to meet
all the customers’ expectations and identify that they are satisfied customer.
Customer satisfaction is the measure of how the needs and responses are collaborated and
delivered to excel customer expectation. It can only be attained if the customer has an
overall good relationship with the supplier. In today’s competitive business marketplace,
customer satisfaction is an important performance exponent and basic differentiation of
business strategies. Hence, the more is customer satisfaction more is the business and the
bonding with customer.
3.2 Factors affecting customer satisfaction:
Employee Behavior is one of the factor that can affect customer badly. For an
example if banker behave badly to a customer then the customer switch to other
bank and the reputation of the bank will be negative. And with the members of
losing customer they will face financial problem in the long run.
Quality of service customer of satisfaction is greatly affected by the quality of the
service provided by the bankers. For an example, if a banker gives slow service then
the customer will be dissatisfied.
Attribution the perceived causes of event influence perception of satisfaction a well.
For an example, if a bank fails to get the proper service for her own mistakes, the
she will be the service.
Perception of equity a fairness customer satisfaction is also influenced by
28. 28
Borrower satisfaction on loan settlement procedure of Grameen Bank
perception of equity and fairness. For an example, priority customer is also
influenced by perceptions of equity and fairness. For example, priority customer
of a bank always gets the special service.
Technological and engineering aspect of the service play an important role. For
example, if the ATM booth of the bank work slowly and if there is shortage of
cash in the booth, then it will create dissatisfaction in customer.
3.3 What do customer want?
Customer expectation are two type:
1. Expressed
2. Implied
Expressed: Customer expectation is those requirements that are written down the
contract are agree upon by parties for example, product satisfaction and delivery
requirements.
Implied: Customer expectation are not written or spoken but are the ones the customer
would expect the supplier to meeting never the less. For example, a customer would
expect the service representative who calls who call on him to be knowledgeable and
competent to solve a problem on the spot.

6.2Conclusion:
Grameen Bank is working with passion and activity, allowing the poor people to get a
microcredit. As Dr. Yunus said, "Credit is a human right." During this internship, I realize
that poverty is actually caused by the social structure rather than any lack of capability on
the part of the people. 1 am one of the witnesses who saw how microcredit helps people,
how the poor people get a loan, how they overcome the poverty. After this internship I have
realized the effectiveness of microcredit and how it has revolutionized the life of the poor.
Of course, financial aid is not the one and only solution to the poor. However, if this kind
of institution can give hope and courage to the poor, we could surely put poverty into
museum.
