Mibanco, Peru
Author: Nimal Fernando
Publisher: Asian Development Bank
ISBN: 9715614965
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
This systematic analysis of the lessons learned at Mibanco--a micro-finance bank in Peru designed to provide sophisticated banking services to poor and low-income households--provides an example for microfinance banks in Asia. Mibanco's successes, which managed to blend aid to large segments of society that badly needed financial services with profitability--are potentially very instructive for an Asian private sector that has not yet been convinced of the profitability of microfinance banks. Among the lessons highlighted for microfinance banks and economic scholars is the usefulness of balancing rural investment and aid with delivering services to urban regions.

The Efficiency and Creativity of Product Development
Author: Fumihiko Ikuine
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811677433
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
This is the first book that comprehensively describes the history of the game software industry in Japan. A major objective here is to identify the key determinants of the emergence of the business, the maturing of the market, and the changes brought about by innovations, based on the history of the Japanese industry. To date, similar books have focused only on particular topics of the game software industry, such as the success of Nintendo and Sony and the uniqueness of the Japanese industry. There are no books that interpret the development process of this industry from the point of view of innovation. To fully understand the business and derive insightful lessons from it, however, requires a careful and thorough examination of its development process. Currently, many companies aim to improve efficiency by using information and communications technology (ICT), but it is difficult to maintain a balance between the pursuit of efficiency and the encouragement of creativity. In the case of Japan’s game software industry, firms have pursued higher efficiency in product development to build competitive advantage, resulting in a low rate of radical innovation and causing the slow growth of the industry. In certain situations, the development activities that target the creation of new products may, in themselves, hinder the creation of truly new products. This book conceptualizes this phenomenon as a “development productivity dilemma” and clarifies the mechanisms behind it. The dilemma, like the productivity dilemma in the manufacturing industry, evokes a certain innovation pattern and prevents potential growth. Understanding the lessons from the game software business presented in this book, managers, researchers, and policymakers can gain insight into the mechanisms leading to industrial maturity and clues to avoid the development productivity dilemma.
