摘要: Many believe that a key innovation by the Grameen Bank is to encourage its borrowers help each other in hard times. To analyze this we study novel mechanism design problem where share information about other, but their limited side contracting ability prevents them from writing complete insurance contracts. We derive lending which efficiently induces mutual insurance. It necessary for submit reports achieve efficiency. Such cross reporting increases bargaining power of unsuccessful borrowers, and robust collusion against bank.
