2.01 Credit Risk Credit risk arises mainly from micro-credit loan provided to the members of Grameen Bank.

This can be described as potential loss arising from the failure of a counter party to perform as

contractual agreement with the bank. The failure may result unwillingness of a counter party or

decline in his/her financial condition in adverse environment. Therefore, the Bank’s credit risk

management activities have been designed to address all these issues.

The officers/executive involved in credit related activities including credit approval,

administration, monitoring and recovery facilities are approved by the different level of the

management. An effective assessment is done before sanction of credit facilities to the

members is done by borrower financial condition, historical performance etc. The process

starts at the branch manager and approved by the competent authority. Credit approval
