  10. Challenges Were Met by • Assessing the credibility and financial behaviors of the members, rather than depending on traditional concepts of collateral for repayments, • Putting emphasis on peer group pressure as a mechanism to ensure prompt repayments • Providing extensive credit related extension services, • Creating the bank's own track record of banking for women, • Designing simple and suitable procedures and products, • Linking credit with other much needed support services like insurance, health care, child care, legal aid and skills training, in order to reduce the women's financial vulnerability and • Establishing a continuous, personal and interactive relationship with the clients.
