| Book Description | This is the story of Bandhan the only bank that emerged in eastern India after Independence. Founded by the son of a sweet vendor with a mere Rs 2 lakh the sum total of his life savings. On 17 June 2015 Chandra Shekhar Ghosh stepped out of the Reserve Bank of India building in Mumbai with the much-coveted banking licence beating some of the country's top corporate houses. This moment compensated for all the frustrations that had come along the way. A year later Bandhan Bank was launched with 6.7 million small borrowers. So how did Ghosh build India's biggest MFI from scratch and then along with his team transform it into a universal bank? Bandhan: The Making of a Bank chronicles that journey. This is also Ghosh's personal story-of a boy growing up in small-town Agartala struggling with poverty but relentless in his ambition to make it big. He battles competition hostile moneylenders a tough economic climate and the perpetual lack of resources. Nobody in India perhaps knows better than him the psyche of a small borrower and the alchemy of doing business with the poor profitably. This is one of India's biggest entrepreneurial stories. |
