Today, Grameen Bank is the largest bank in Bangladesh. It serves more than 8.3 million members, 98% 

of them women. All entered the Bank practically landless and asset-less, and with income well below the poverty line. One of the Bank’s most noteworthy aspects is its ownership structure: Borrowers own 95% of the bank, with the government holding the remaining 5%. Each member of Grameen is required to buy at least 1 share. The Bank’s 24,000 employees provide services across more than 95% of the national territory, in about 81,000 villages, through more than 2,500 branch offices.
