Synopsis
Banks refuse to give credit without collateral. Where commercial banks see insolvency, Nobel Prize-winning economist Muhammad Yunus sees opportunity. His groundbreaking Grameen Bank was built on the innovative notion that if you loan poor women money within the context of peer support, not only will they repay and sustain the bank, but they will elevate the communities around them in the process. With millions of microloans to rural entrepreneurs in developing countries, Grameen is now importing its methods to Queens, New York.
