Economia, natureza e cultura: uma visão histórica e interdisciplinar dos sertanejos, dos mercados e das organizações no sertão da Bahia / Economy, Nature and Culture: a historical and interdisciplinary view of sertanejos, markets and organizations in the sertão back lands of Bahia

Reginaldo Sales Magalhães 03 May 2005 (has links)
Esta pesquisa tem como foco os processos de desenvolvimento cultural e organizacional necessários à formação de mercados financeiros formais em regiões de baixa-renda. Para tanto, analisa o caso das cooperativas de crédito da região sisaleira da Bahia, uma experiência notável de inserção de populações de baixa renda no mercado financeiro. Com o acesso a serviços financeiros a baixos custos e a capacitação e assistência técnica proporcionadas pela associação dos pequenos produtores, os agricultores passaram a investir em atividades econômicas mais adaptadas ao clima semi-árido, ter acesso a novos mercados, planejar melhor a produção e o consumo, elevar a renda e promover o desenvolvimento local. Nessa região em que os sertanejos encontravam-se, e uma parte ainda é, dependentes de monopólios tradicionais que se perpetuavam através de vínculos personalistas de controle, os sertanejos contraem constante endividamento junto a comerciantes locais. A ação das Comunidades Eclesiais de Base e dos sindicatos de trabalhadores rurais, a partir dos anos 70, foi decisiva para promover um processo de desenvolvimento cultural e a formação de uma densa rede de organizações que possibilitaram ampliar o acesso dos agricultores ao mercado financeiro e a novos canais de comercialização. Por meio de uma análise interdisciplinar e crítica da realidade concreta e dos conceitos da sociologia econômica, da economia institucional, da teoria dos sistemas agrários e da antropologia, são reconstruídos os processos históricos que levaram à formação de cooperativas, é analisada a influência do clima sobre os mercados, é investigada a racionalidade econômica do sertanejo e são desvendadas as estruturas sociais que sustentam as novas organizações econômicas e o desenvolvimento recente da região sisaleira da Bahia. / This study aims to understand the cultural development processes required to create markets. The analysis is focused on the case of credit cooperatives in the sisal region of Bahia, which represents an outstanding experience of inclusion of low income people in the financial market. Access to low-cost financial services, together with training and technical assistance provided by the small growers association, allowed them to invest in economic activities more adapted to the semi-arid region, to reach new markets, to plan production and consumption, to increase their income and to promote local development. In this region, local people (the sertanejos) used to be - and still are dependent on traditional monopolies that perpetuate by means of personalized control ties, which keep them constantly in debt with local traders. The action of both the comunidades eclesiais de base (grassroot catholic organization) and the rural labor unions were crucial to promote a process of cultural development and the formation of a dense net of organizations responsible for increasing the growers´ access to the financial market and to new marketing channels. The analysis is based on a historical, inter-disciplinary and critical approach, and on concepts of economic sociology, institutional economics, agrarian systems and anthropology. The historical processes are reconstructed, the climate influence on the market is analyzed, the economic rationality of the sertanejo is investigated and the social structures that support the new economic organization and development of Bahia´s sisal region are revealed.

Financial Barriers and Response Strategies to Support Women Entrepreneurs in Rural Nigeria

Peter, Wuraola 17 September 2021 (has links)
Women entrepreneurs play increasingly important roles in job creation and sustainable economic growth in developing economies, including sub-Saharan Africa. While Nigeria has made progress in closing gender gaps in women’s employment rights, financial inclusion and access to resources remain challenges for many women who seek to start and grow businesses. Barriers to venture creation are particularly problematic for women entrepreneurs living in rural Nigeria. Yet, few studies have examined women entrepreneurs’ access to capital in the context of rural Nigeria, including the perceived value of informal lenders and government support programs. This thesis informs the literature by reporting on women entrepreneurs who own and operate retail micro-enterprises in rural, South-West Nigeria, specifically Atakunmosa West, Osun State. The study findings demonstrate the value and limitations of informal lenders, such as Ajo and Esusu, in bridging institutional voids in banking practices and technology-enabled money services. Drawing on the social feminist and resource-based theory, the study advances a conceptual model of the gendered context of financial inclusion and considers the implications for research and policy.

The Role of Women in Economic Transformation: Market Women in Sierra Leone.

Solomon, Christiana January 2005 (has links)
yes / Various research has concluded that economic life did not die out during the conflict in Sierra Leone, but took on different forms. Different stakeholders at all levels were engaged in economic activities during the war. The specific roles of women in the shadow economy are under-researched with the result that most analysis and policy-options are inadequate. While some of Sierra Leone¿s Market Women strategically participated in war economies to `do well out of war¿, most did so out of the need to survive. With the end of the war, market women have been able to make a successful transformation to peace economies through micro-credit assistance.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Regiane Vieira Wochler.pdf: 613236 bytes, checksum: d668fdd0351839f6435bc374e47a2d8f (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-10-20 / The BancoSol of Bolivia, one of the leading microfinance organizations in Latin America since its inception in 1986 became one of the largest commercial banks in the country from the early years of the century XXI. Although presented today as an IMF, the BancoSol is actually one of largest commercial banks in the country, alongside Banco Los Andes, who was also an IMF in its origin, in other words, the Bolivian commercial banking system today existing was developed from microfinance organizations. This dissertation argues that this unusual configuration happened due to the weakening of the traditional banking system with the serious financial crises of the 1980s, amid the severe social effects of economic instability and disruption of the production structure that marked this period. This study examines changes in BancoSol toward to the profile of a commercial bank, through literature and documents, making it difficult to obtain information about its history, despite the importance attributed to him by the literature on microfinance / O BancoSol da Bolívia, uma das mais destacadas organizações de microfinanças da América Latina desde seu surgimento, em 1986, tornou-se um dos maiores bancos comerciais do país a partir dos primeiros anos do século XXI. Apesar de apresentado ainda hoje como uma IMF, o BancoSol é de fato um dos maiores bancos comerciais do país, ao lado do Banco Los Andes, que também era uma IMF em sua origem, ou seja, o sistema bancário comercial boliviano hoje existente se desenvolveu a partir de organizações de microfinanças. O trabalho defende que essa configuração incomum se deveu ao enfraquecimento do sistema bancário tradicional com as graves crises financeiras dos anos 1980, em meio aos graves efeitos sociais da instabilidade econômica e da desestruturação da estrutura produtiva que marcaram aquele período. O trabalho analisa as mudanças no BancoSol em direção ao perfil de banco comercial, por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, destacando a dificuldade para obter informações sobre sua trajetória, apesar da relevância a ele atribuída pela literatura sobre microfinanças

Pollution minimizing at traditional craft village by micro-credit program - case study from Tan Phu Dong rice flour production village / Giảm thiểu ô nhiễm bằng nguồn quỹ tín dụng nhỏ - Trường hợp cụ thể ở làng nghề làm bột truyền thống Tân Phú Đông

Nguyen, Vo Chau Ngan, Huynh, Thi Ngoc Luu, Le, Hoang Viet, Do, Ngoc Quynh, Nguyen, Ngoc Em 13 November 2012 (has links) (PDF)
This paper introduces the results of a project initiated by Cantho University (CTU) on the introduction of micro-credits for addressing the environmental pollution in Vietnam’s craft villages. At Tan Phu Dong, a traditional rice powder production village in Sa Dec, Dong Thap, all wastes from domestic and production activities and animal husbandry were freely disposed into open water sources. This practice led to a negative impact on the local environment. With the financial support provided by the Bread for the World (BfdW), a micro-credit program was initiated in which farmers could borrow money to construct a biogas plant to treat animal husbandry and domestic wastes. In addition, the staff transferred biogas plant construction technology to the local masons and organized training courses on biogas plant operation and maintenance and biogas usage for the farmers and the local officials. 61 farmers borrowed money from the program to construct their biogas plants, followed by more than 250 farmers that constructed their biogas plants by their own finance after realizing the positive benefits of biogas plants. As result, the environmental pollution issue was solved step-by-step, thereby helping enhance the living conditions of the local community. / Bài báo này trình bày biện pháp sử dụng nguồn quỹ tín dụng nhỏ để các hộ dân cải thiện tình trạng ô nhiễm môi trường ở các làng nghề Việt Nam.

黃建維, Huang, Chien Wei Unknown Date (has links)
中國大陸自1978年改革開放以來經濟不斷朝市場化方向邁進,近年來小微企業逐漸成為中國大陸經濟結構轉型的因素以及經濟發展的動能。然而計畫經濟時期資源分配集中在大型國有企業使得小微企業資金取得困難,小微企業在現階段帶動中國大陸經濟轉型與發展,但卻面臨資金借貸的資訊不對稱問題。在小額借貸市場失靈現象下,中國大陸新興的小額借貸模式,如P2P網路借貸、小額貸款公司等如雨後春筍般出現。 本論文探討中國大陸小額借貸金融體系的市場失靈問題,以資訊不對稱理論分析微型貸款融資模式與網路金融機構的創新途徑如何解決此困境。並以阿里巴巴集團的螞蟻金服為個案延伸探討。 資訊不對稱理論為本論文之理論基礎,並以文獻分析與統計資料分析兩模式分析中國大陸當前的金融環境。在個案分析部分將阿里巴巴集團的螞蟻金服與P2P網路借貸平台、傳統銀行業小額貸款業務的運作模式以及風險機制等做比較,並以風險機制進一步探討資訊不對稱理論的作用。 本論文最後提出三項看法作為結論,包括:創新的小額借貸模式得以降低資訊不對稱、中國大陸網路經濟迅速發展加快小微企業與金融業創新、小額貸款模式本身缺失。 / Marketization in China began after its economic reforms started in 1978. In recent years, micro and small enterprises have become a factor of economic transformation and a momentum of economic growth in China. While most resources were allocated to large, state businesses in the planned economy period, it was difficult for micro and small enterprises to access relevant resources. Although micro and small enterprises are driving the Chinese economic transformation, they are facing the loan information asymmetry problem. As the micro credit market is malfunctioning, emerging micro credit models, such as P2P internet lending and micro lending companies, are springing up like mushrooms. This paper investigates the malfunction of China’s micro credit market analyzed how of the innovation of micro credit models and internet financial institutions solve this problem with information asymmetry theory. An extended investigation was conducted with Ant Financial of Alibaba Group as an example. Information asymmetry is the theoretical background of this paper. This paper analyzed China’s present financial situation with literature and statistical analyses. This study also compared the operating model and risk control for micro credit between Ant Financial, P2P internet lending, and traditional banks in the case study and further reviewed the effect of information asymmetry in risk control. In conclusion, this study found that (1) innovative micro credit model could reduce information asymmetry; (2) the rapid development of China’s internet economy has accelerated the innovation of local micro and small enterprises and the financial industry, and (3) the problems in current micro credit models.

The Crédito Popular Solidário is a Public Private Partnership established with the participation of the city of São Paulo. The findings demonstrate the micro-credit plays a minor role in the Brazilian economy, especially in comparison to certain nations of southeast Asia or even other Latin American countries. Given the minor degree of penetration, as viewed in either absolute or relative terms, micro-credit initiatives have an enormous potential in the economic development of Brazil. Statistical analysis of the financial and economic data demonstrates the significant impact of micro-credit initiatives on income generation – they doubled the income of small scale entrepreneurs in two years time. In addition, the average rate of internal return generated by the credit granted is such that the actual interest rate (capital costs) levied by the São Paulo Confia, and the market is irrelevant. Results reveal that small scale entrepreneurs in low-income neighborhoods in São Paulo are in such dire need of capital that any injection of liquidity, especially to cover working capital needs, is a tremendous stimulus for future returns and income generation. In other words, labor is available, but there is a lack of capital to generate production. As a result of capital injection, the recipients of micro-loans are able to boost their income to a level accepted by the banking system. This analysis and the results of this contribution represent an opportunity for public administrators to consider the use of micro-credit initiatives as a policy tool for income generation, among other alternatives in Brazilian social policy. Also, for the financial institutions to realize that these initiatives could bring new clients with a good credit history to the banking system. / Este trabalho apresenta uma investigação empírica sobre impacto do microcrédito em renda a partir de dados coletados junto aos clientes de três unidades (Brasilândia, Jardim Helena e Heliópolis) do Crédito Popular Solidário (São Paulo Confia). O Crédito Popular Solidário (CPS) é uma iniciativa público-privada que conta com a participação protagonista da Prefeitura do município de São Paulo. O trabalho revela que o microcrédito é uma atividade marginal na economia brasileira, especialmente se comparada a alguns países do sudeste e sul da Ásia, ou mesmo com alguns países na América Latina, tanto do ponto de vista absoluto quanto relativo. Com uma taxa de penetração muito baixa, medida pela oferta sobre demanda potencial, o microcrédito tem grande potencial de crescimento no Brasil. A análise dos dados demonstrou que o impacto do microcrédito na geração de renda é significativo: em dois anos, a renda do microempreendedor quase que dobra. Além disso, a taxa interna de retorno sobre o crédito médio concedido é de tal ordem que torna irrelevante a discussão sobre o nível de taxas de juros (custo do capital) praticados pelo mercado. Os resultados revelam que os microempreendedores em bairros de baixa renda em São Paulo são tão carentes de capital que qualquer injeção, principalmente na forma de capital de giro, provoca alavancagens financeiras espetaculares. Em outras palavras, o fator trabalho está disponível, mas falta o fator capital para que haja produção. Como resultado desta injeção de capital, o recipiente do crédito e sua família são alçados para um novo patamar de renda. Um patamar que pode, inclusive, transformá-lo em mais um cliente do sistema bancário tradicional. Os resultados deste trabalho são uma oportunidade para que os gestores públicos possam refletir positivamente sobre a possibilidade de utilização do microcrédito como política de geração de renda, em escala, dentre as alternativas de política social no Brasil. E para que o setor financeiro compreenda que o micro crédito produtivo orientado pode resultar na incorporação de novos clientes com bom histórico de crédito ao sistema bancário.
