In this paper an attempt has been made to analyse the progress of SHG-Bank linkage programme in India during the period between 2007-2008 and 2019-2020. The progress of SHG-Bank linkage programme has been analyzed in terms growth of savings of SHGs with banks and growth of bank loans disbursed to SHGs. For this purpose the data required for the study were collected from the official publication of National Bank for Agricultural and Rural Development (NABARD), different published reports, journals and existing available literature. This study employed simple statistical tools such as percentage analysis and averages to analyze the data. The result of the study shows that there is significant raise in the amount of savings of SHGs with banking sector and amount of loans disbursed to SHGs, During this study period. However the agency-wise analyses of savings of SHGs and loans disbursed to SHGs show that the Commercial banks lead in getting savings of SHGs and loans disbursed to them followed by Regional Rural Banks and Co-operative banks. Not with standing the remarkable progress, geographically there has been skewed development of SHG-Bank linkage programme in India. There is wide regional disparity in the spread of SHGs, savings of SHGs with banks and loans disbursed to SHGs under this programme. The outreach of this programme is spectacular in Southern region while North, West and Eastern regions are lagging behind. In view of the large outreach, predominant position and the possible benefits to the poor, it is very important to see the benefits of this programme to reach across all sections of the society and regions. So far the SHG movement is India is mostly South-Centric and it is yet to take off the real sense in other regions of India.

The trends of bank crediting of businesses and households in Ukraine are determined and credit interrelations between subjects of economy by means of methods of system dynamics simulated. The article shows that by end 2020 the main trends in the Ukrainian banking sector are: 1) increasing the dynamics of return on capital, consistently high interest rates on loans until 2019 and their declining dynamics in 2020; 2) declining trends in the dynamics of the share of loans in the assets of commercial banks and the indicator of the financial depth of lending to the Ukrainian economy; 3) predominance of the share of loans to businesses in comparison with the share of loans to households in the loan banking portfolio; 4) faster growth rates of bank loans to households compared to the growth rates of lending to businesses; 5) in the sectoral context, the largest share in lending to business units is accounted for by trade and in lending to households – by consumer lending; 6) half of the loan portfolio of commercial banks are short-term loans for up to one year; 7) the share of non-performing loans in the loan portfolio remains high; 8) gradual reduction of non-deposit sources among the liabilities of commercial banks and their transition to almost full financing at the expense of customer deposits; 9) increase in the share of short-term and decrease in the share of long-term deposit financing of commercial banks. Based on the methods of system dynamics, the authors created a model that allows to trace the relationship between commercial banks-businesses-households, as well as to calculate the forecast volumes of bank loans in accordance with the demand for loans from businesses and households (weighted by the maximum value credit load) and supply of credit resources by commercial banks. From a practical point of view, determining the characteristic trends of bank lending, modeling the interaction of its main participants and determining the volume of bank loans using system dynamics helps to identify key factors influencing the supply and demand of bank credit resources at the present stage of Ukraine’s development and predict future lending dynamics.

The objective of the study: The main objective of this study is to determine the factors that influence manufacturing small, medium and micro-sized enterprises’ (SMMEs) borrowing from banks.Problem statement: This article examines factors that affect SMMEs’ ability to borrow money from commercial banks. Empirical evidence was collected from manufacturing SMMEs.Motivation for the study: There is a scarcity of studies on factors influencing borrowing among Botswana manufacturing SMMEs.Methodology: The study employed both qualitative and quantitative research designs. The random stratified sampling technique was used to draw a sample of 100 manufacturing SMMEs from a population of 329 registered manufacturing SMMEs in Botswana. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Furthermore, multivariate logistic regression estimation was used to obtain the main objective.Main findings: The empirical results showed that longevity in position and annual turnover have positive impact on getting access to bank loans, while marital status has a negative effect on access to bank loans.Practical implications: An understanding of factors influencing borrowing can increase chances of an SMME gaining financing from commercial banks, thus solving the challenge of access to finance.Contributions: The results are significant to SMMEs, policymakers, the banking sector and other researchers. Furthermore, this study increases literature on SMME challenges and financing logistics.

Digital Green is a prime example of a development intervention aimed not only at the poor but “by the poor”, as a content or knowledge disseminator to rural users The case is written in the form of multiple scenes that unfold organically to paint a bigger picture of what the organization does and the different players and groups that take part to make this intervention a success. The reader is exposed to different view-point and actions taken by various stakeholders: the Village Resource Person from the local government organization, the self-help group member who features in the video and the Assistant Program Manager (APM) for Digital Green. This case can be used in courses that teach ‘Development and ICT’ and generic courses in BOP development that want to highlight issues related to scalability of an intervention, local relevance and buy in (adoptability), and understanding ground realities.

In each developed state, the Central National Bank is considered the main element of financial resources. It is a legal and authorized, legal and monetary policy. Effective work of the Central National Bank, close cooperation with commercial banks, tightened control over financial markets, leads to the effective development of the banking system. To date, control over the banking system, the role of the National Bank, relations with commercial banks have not been fully studied. This, in turn, is part of the problem of economic and financial sector development and requires comprehensive study. First, changes in the macroeconomic situation in the future will depend on the characteristics of the banking system. Secondly, the speed of introducing new technologies and their distribution in the global financial markets, changes in the financial sector is happening at a high speed. In this connection, the risk of "obsolescence" is growing.

The adverse macroeconomic consequences of financial crises have heightened research interests in their causes. However, little is known about the role of political influence as a cause of financial crises in small developing countries. This research explores the role of governance as one of the causes of failures in nine of Liberias twelve commercial banks during the financial crises during the period 1986 to 1999. In particular, this paper explores how the government used appointments primarily based on kinship to influence the banking sector and render the National Bank of Liberia ineffective in implementing its regulatory powers. The research found that regulatory standards, weakened by nepotism, led to corruption and mismanagement in the banking sector. In addition, through the governments political influence over the National Bank of Liberia, it was able to finance unsustainable fiscal deficits by borrowing from commercial banks and the National Bank of Liberia, culminating in severe financial crises.
