We validate this default-augmented form of the LSLP model with data gathered in a survey of farmers from BNDA's center district Bouake. The model is then used to determine the conditions for a zero net lending cost by varying (1) the cost of default, (2) the interest rate for BNDA loans, (3) the credit limit for BNDA loans, and (4) the cost of delinquency. It is also modified to include liquidity management vectors for BNDA credit in order to determine the combined effect of a zero net lending cost and an all-cash disbursement of BNDA loans.","The net lending cost for BNDA can be reduced to zero by increasing (1) the default cost to 2.40 CFAF, (2) the interest rate to 29%, and (3) the loan limit by 30%. Gains to the borrower also are reflected in a larger value of the objective functions and in cash available. If in addition to these three conditions BNDA adopts a policy of an all-cash loan disbursement, it earns some profit from its operation. But while the borrower still gains from a larger value of the objective function, cash available decreases. This decrease, however, is offset by higher credit reserves.","Made available in DSpace on 2014-12-15T20:29:02Z (GMT).
