Abstract

Bugünün gelişmekte olan dünyasında, yoksul kesimin yaşam standartları yükseltilmedikçe, hiçbir ülkede anlamlı bir kalkınmanın sağlanamayacağı gerçeğini açık bir şekilde kabul edilmiştir. Yoksul kesimin yaşam refahını yükseltme düşüncesi giderek ön plana çıkmaktadır; çünkü sadece büyüme yönlü stratejiler, insanların yaşam şartlarını iyileştirme konusunda önemli ölçüde başarısız olmuşlardır. Bu çalışmada mikrofinans uygulamalarında en başarılı mikrofinansman kurumu olan Grameen Bank’ın ortaya ve gelişimi, amacı ve hedef kitlesi, kurumsal ve faaliyet yapısı,  yenilikleri ve finansal yapısı üzerinde durulmuştur.
