...Presented to – Adeyl khan, course instructor: MIS 205, Sec: 3 Group Assignment-1 Due date: 14.6.2012 2012 Report on an organization Grameenphone Sadi mohammad- 1110725030 Abu Shoaib khan- 1020722030 Grameenphone – An Overview Since 1997 the widely acclaimed “Village Phone Program” of Grameenphone – a joint venture telecom company, set up by Grameen Bank, with foreign (Norwegian) capital3 – has provided telephones to 39,000 villages in Bangladesh, bringing access to the telephone networks to some 70 million people. This extraordinary achievement is rightly cited in the development literature as a success, an innovation which managed to bring the Information Society to the remotest and most unlikely places of the country. Most studies of the initiative have focused on the socio-economic benefits that new technology such as cell phones can bring rural communities, giving the impression that the program is philanthropic in intention, presenting Grameenphone as a not-for-profit organization devoted to providing connectivity for the poor. This assumption does not reflect reality. GP is above all a business. The company provides a good example of a multi-stakeholder partnership, as recommended in the Plan of Action of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) held in Geneva in December 2003.4 It highlights the role of the private sector not only as a market player but also as an effective and dynamic stimulator of development. This case-study...

Moreover, this concept is used as a tool by companies to track the environment they’re operating in or are planning to launch a new project/product/service etc. PESTLE is a mnemonic which in its expanded form denotes P for Political, E for Economic, S for Social, T for Technological, L for Legal and E for Environmental. It gives a bird’s eye view of the whole environment from many different angles that one wants to check and keep a track of while contemplating on a certain idea/plan. The framework has undergone certain alterations, as gurus...

...In physics and chemistry, plasma is a state of matter similar to gas in which a certain portion of the particles are ionized. After sufficient heating a gas dissociates its molecular bonds, rendering it into constituent atoms. However, further heating may also lead to ionization (a loss or gain of electrons) of the molecules or atoms of the gas, thus turning it into a plasma, containing charged particles: positive ions and negative electrons.[1] The presence of a non-negligible number of charge carriers makes the plasma electrically conductive so that it responds strongly to electromagnetic fields. Plasma, therefore, has properties quite unlike those of solids, liquids, or gases and is considered a distinct state of matter. Like gas, plasma does not have a definite shape or a definite volume unless enclosed in a container; unlike gas, under the influence of a magnetic field, it may form structures such as filaments, beams and double layers. Some common plasmas are stars and neon signs. In the universe, plasma is the most common state of matter for ordinary matter, most of which is in the rarefied intergalactic plasma (particularly intracluster medium) and in stars. States of matter are the distinct forms that different phases of matter take on. Solid, liquid and gas are the most common states of matter on Earth. However, much of the baryonic matter of universe is in the form of hot plasma, both as rarefied interstellar medium and as dense stars. Historically, the distinction...

...chapter 01 Introduction Management and organizations facing constantly changing problems, diverse managerial styles, and ever present information needs offer a challenging context for developing computer based information systems. A management information system (MIS) is a system or process that provides information needed to manage organizations effectively. Management Information Systems (MIS) employs the integration of information technology in achieving the needs and objectives of the general workforce, managers and their organization. The development of MIS in organizations helps corporate executives in applying efficient and effective information technology-based business and economic decisions. With new trends in information technology, managers and organizations will face more advance and flexible management of organizational information. Management information systems are regarded to be a subset of the overall internal controls procedures in a business, which cover the application of people, documents, technologies, and procedures used by management accountants to solve business problems such as costing a product, service or a business-wide strategy. Academically, the term is commonly used to refer to the group of information management methods tied to the automation or support of human decision making, e.g. Decision Support Systems, Expert systems, and Executive information systems. The terms MIS and information system are often confused. MIS is sometimes referred...

...Executive summary: This report examines the financial performances of DESCO on the basis of analyzing and calculating their five major types of ratios; Liquidity Ratio, Asset Management Ratio, Debt Management Ratio, Profitability Ratio and Stock Market Ratio. The paper also includes the calculations and evaluation of Du Pont Equation. The company current ratio, quick ratio, inventory turnover ratio and total asset turnover ratio etc. appears as better than the previous years. However, the average collection period and average payment period has become unsatisfactory which may lead to financial crisis as the company’s only service offering is electricity supply which is offered almost in all cases on credit. Fall in fixed asset turnover ratio signifies that the company should utilize its fixed asset more. In this paper, slight fall in ROA and ROE is observed. While the former urges more efficient utilization of assets, the latter calls for an increase in return to the shareholders. The substantial fall in EPS shows that the company is falling behind in providing return to consumers which is not a very good sign. The company should try to return more to its shareholders. In a nutshell it can be said that in the recent years the company has been somewhat efficient in utilizing, managing and maintaining resources but isn’t giving back enough to the shareholders which gives out a very grave signal. Introduction: Dhaka Electric Supply Co. Ltd. (DESCO) was created as a distribution...

...Grameen Bank and Microcredit Name Course Course Instructor Institutional Affiliation Date Introduction It is often contended that the monetary sector in low-income nations has failed to serve the impoverished. Considering the formal sector, financial institutions as well as banks generally necessitate significant collateral, have bureaucratic and lengthy application process and have a preference for high loan and high-income clients. For the informal sector, usurers often charge extremely high-interest rates, often permit sexist or racist attitudes to direct their lending decisions and tend to undervalue collateral (Kuhinur & Rokonuzzaman, 2010). Accordingly, the failure of informal and formal financial sectors to offer affordable credit to the deprived is usually perceived as a factor among others that reinforces the social, demographic and economic structures that eventually cause poverty. Consequently, "micro-credit" was developed to address this failure and decades has seen a significant growth in this sector. Microfinance over the years has received several donor endorsement to be the most viable anti-poverty initiative. This is because it targets and reaches the impoverished, especially women, and also small entrepreneurs and producers who more often than not have a limited formal access to traditional banking systems. Micro-credit is, in essence, the dispersion of diminutive collateral-free loans to equally liable groups so as to foster income creation...

...Muhammad Yunus to be very interesting. At first I was wondering why an economist and bank owner was given the Nobel Prize for Peace and not Economics. Through the address he made, it became more apparent as to why he an industry like Grameen Bank received such recognition. By making a clear connection between poverty and the prospect of peace, Grameen Bank is fighting poverty and promoting peace. As long as people are in poverty, they suffer from anger, frustration, and hostilities that make it impossible to sustain peace in their society. With poverty all around Yunus, he couldn’t ignore it anymore, he couldn’t teach about the adverse effects of poverty in an economic system while people living within walking distance of the university knew nothing other than poverty. Since he created the Grameen Bank in 1974, it has given loans to over seven million people in over seventy three thousand Bengali villages. The bank gives out thirty thousand scholarships and approved thirteen thousand student loans, a number which increases by over seven thousand every year. An offshoot from the bank is Grameen Phone, a company committed to spreading the rise of technology and communication across all of Bangladesh. Companies like Grameen Bank and Grameen Phone are some of what Yunus likes to call social businesses. These social businesses operate much like a traditional business except they make no profit for their investors. That is not to say these companies are charities, all investors...

...------------------------------------------------- Grameen Intel: The Experience of the World’s First IT Social Business ------------------------------------------------- Fahim Kader (132-0947-660) January 7, 2014 Abstract “Of all the countries around the world where we can invest, why should we keeping funds running to Bangladesh?” narrates Kazi I. Huque, CEO of Grameen Intel Social Business Ltd.). He talks about how he has had to convince people over at Intel Corporation, over the years, how despite all the well publicized negativities surrounding the political and (subsequently) business situations in Bangladesh, it would be great investment for Intel to finance the operations of Grameen Intel in Dhaka. Huque, a long term employee of Intel, recalls how during the incorporation of Grameen Intel, he was caught in the middle of contrasting demands and ideas from the rest of the board members that included his own bosses. When he took on the responsibility of spearheading the venture, he knew it would be challenging. The canvas was empty and required lots of thorough planning and strategizing to be crafted into a successful project. “I met with Craig Barrett (former Chairman of Intel Corporation) in his office, and I started complaining.” says Huque. “I said, ‘You’re all making different demands… you need to be on the same page.” Barrett simply replied, “Kazi, we got you onboard to deal with this. It is your job to sort it all out, so don’t ask me for solutions...

...Grameen’s business empire Grabbing Grameen Property rights in peril in Bangladesh Jan 28th 2012 | from the print edition * * Some day, all this will belong to the state HE IS probably Bangladesh's most celebrated citizen. Muhammad Yunus, winner of the 2006 Nobel peace prize, founded Grameen Bank in 1983 to provide tiny loans to poor rural women. Grameen became a global model for microfinance. It also spawned 48 other firms in sectors that stretch from textiles to mobile phones. Yet the Bangladeshi government seems determined to take Mr Yunus down a peg. In May 2011 the government pushed him out of his job as boss of Grameen Bank, saying that he was past the retirement age for someone running a government bank. (Grameen Bank mostly belongs to its borrowers but the state owns a slice.) Mr Yunus says this is just a pretext for a power grab. The government now wants to assert more control over other firms in the Grameen network, which includes assets worth an estimated $1.6 billion.
