2.0 The economic context: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
| |
| Tanzania has a population of just over 37 million, a GDP of US$22 billion, and
GDP per capita of US$610.6 An estimated 51 per cent of the population lives below the
poverty line. Eighty per cent of the country’s poor population live in rural areas,
depending on subsistence agriculture and unable to participate in broader markets. Poor
roads, exorbitantly expensive utilities and prohibitive policies have compounded this
problem, significantly impeding the growth of the economy.7 Agriculture, the mainstay
of the economy, is almost 50 per cent of GDP, and small-scale peasant farmers, who
make up 70 per cent of the population, carry out over 80 per cent of agricultural
activities. About 30 per cent of the population over 15 years of age is illiterate (UDEC,
2002). |

1.0 Introduction: Microfinance in Africa - Experience and Lessons from Selected African Countries
| |
| Small enterprises and most of the poor population in sub-Saharan Africa have very limited
access to deposit and credit facilities and other financial services provided by formal
financial institutions. For example, in Ghana and Tanzania, only about 5–6 percent of the
population has access to the banking sector. This lack of access to financial services from the
formal financial system is quite striking, when one considers that in many African countries
the poor represent the largest share of the population and that the informal sector is an
important part of the economy. |

Report from the Field: Incorporating Microfinance into Kenya's Economic Recovery Strategy
| |
| With a population of 30 million people and a per capita income of US$260, Kenya is categorized the 20th poorest country in the world.[1] Estimates indicate that about 47% of the rural population and 29% of the urban population live under conditions of absolute poverty, where malnutrition and seasonal famine are not just a consistent fear, but also a frequent reality in their lives. On the other hand, the unemployment rate, currently estimated at between 25% and 35%, threatens to get out of hand as roughly 0.5 million school dropouts continue to join the ranks of the unemployed every year. |

This ratio, more commonly expressed as DIR or simply “debt ratio,” measures how much you can borrow based on your expenses in relation to your total monthly income. Lenders’ experience shows that you may borrow from 33% to 40% of your monthly income, on average. |

Home Security For Better Home Insurance Rates - Home Security For Everyone
| |
| Crime rates vary, but in many large cities they've actually gone down over the past few decades. Still, the population has grown and the need for security is still very much with us.
Home security systems used to be largely reserved for the well-to-do. This made sense when the systems were very expensive and they were installed to protect even more expensive possessions. Fortunately, things have changed. Now, even very modest homes can afford some level of home security, especially since many components of a total design require nothing but a little common sense.
