NGOs in Banking: Institutional Transformation and Ownership and Control of Cambodia’s ACLEDA Bank

Edmund Terence Gomez | Kee-cheok Cheong

 

Abstract:

In 1993, Cambodia’s war-torn economy began its slow recovery with the aid of domestic and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs). These NGOs would come to have a huge presence in the redevelopment of the Cambodian economy, providing credit to urban and rural communities to help micro-enterprises.
