Bashiran Ghulam Rasool Group

Bashiran baji is 44 years old and a married lady citizen of a city named Arifwala, Pakistan for the past 10 years. Bashiran baji completed her education up to 8th standard and couldn’t study further because she belongs to a poor family. Bashiran baji’s husband's name is Ghulam Rasool, a butcher by trade, who has been running a butcher shop in the community for the past 5 years.

Bashiran baji is the mother of six kids: five sons and one daughter. Her first four kids are daily wage laborers. The others are enrolled in a school and getting an education. Bashiran baji is applying for a loan to buy goats for her husband’s butcher shop.

Bashiran baji is the group leader for two other women from her locality. Irshad baji wants a loan to buy groceries for her grocery shop. Farzana baji wants a loan to buy an auto-rickshaw (a local three-wheeled motor vehicle).

This is a group loan. The loan funds will be distributed among the group members, each of whom will invest in her own business. The members mutually guarantee one another's loans. If one member does not repay, the other members are responsible.




About Group Loans
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a group of individuals bound by a group guarantee. Under this arrangement, each member of the group supports one another and is responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members if someone is delinquent or defaults. Learn more
