  6. MBWA, Grameen Style!“Conventional banks ask their clients to come to their office. It’s a terrifying place for the poor and illiterate. … The entire Grameen Bank system runs on the principle that people should not come to the bank, the bank should go to the people. … If any staff member is seen in the office, it should be taken as a violation of the rules of the Grameen Bank. … It is essential that [those setting up a new village Branch] have no office and no place to stay. The reason is to make us as different as possible from government officials.” Source: Muhammad Yunus, Banker to the Poor

  7. “There is one thing [I don’t like about Grameen] . I used to enjoy beating my wife. But the Group came to me and argued with me and shouted at me. Who gave them the right to shout at me? The borrowing group threatened they will get really mean if I beat my wife again.”Husband of borrower, to Muhammad Yunus [from Banker to the Poor]

  8. “The Grameen loan is not simply cash. It becomes a kind of ticket to self-discovery and self-exploration.”Muhammad Yunus
