Kwame works very hard to bring food and joy to his family. He sells engine oil, kerosene and grease. He has been in business for the last eight years. He supplies villages where there is no hydroelectric power. He is 37 years old, married and the father of three children. All his children are currently in school. Kwame has purchased a portion of land to build a house. He requests a loan to buy engine oil, grease and kerosene, etc. in bulk. With this loan, he believes he can save enough money to support his children in school.
Kwame is the leader of a trust bank group called ‘Ahobrasie’ which literally means ‘Humility’. He is the one sitting in front of the group in the photograph. Most of the members of this group are petty traders, food vendors and/or farmers. In this group, members guarantee for one another as social collateral to access the loan and there is peer pressure to repay the loan.
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
