This is one reason why a lending company should do its best in order to address properly these tough times and how they are going to have a smooth running of their business amidst economic problems.
Grameen Financial Services are among those companies that also experienced some problems. But, they were able to raise Rs 25-crore and this has been possible with the issuance of non-convertible debentures. The purpose of this is to ease its liquidity situation.
