1 Category: poor Initial wealth ranking: none: selected at random Code: DBB07 IDPM FINANCIAL DIARIES: SUMMARIES Bangladesh: Urban interview taken by: Saiful Islam and S K Sinha date: 4 December 2000 Site: Beri Bad Principal respondent(s): Mr H and Mrs M H is from Jhalkati (greater Barisal) where there is no work available. He has been in Dhaka for 15 years and living in Beri Bad since He came seeking work, there being none in the village. He has his own house, and lets out two small rooms, earning 200 taka a month on each. He is about 48 years old, married, with four children. He passed his High School exam in 1968 but his wife, M, can only sign her name. Eldest son Ripon, 25, studied to class five and now rides a rickshaw, earning about 1,000 a month. Daughter Sahinur, 10, is in class 2 at the BRAC school. Daughters Champa and Mousomi are 5 and 2. H uses a wide mix of jobs to survive. He s been a rickshaw driver but for the first few months of the research year he is too ill to drive a rickshaw so they live off the son s earnings and M goes day labouring. When H goes back to work in late January it is as a day labourer in the brick fields. After they relocate their house (due to the rebuilding of the embankment) they spend six weeks in H s home village and when they come back he does other day labouring work but sometimes finds it hard to get work. His health is not at all good and becomes virtually paralysed down one side of his body this proves expensive with as much as 20,000 taka spent during the year. They manage with a few family-based reciprocal loans and they use ROSCAs and saving up clubs, and take basic goods on credit from the shop. Their involvement with MFIs isn t successful. 1.

She thinks keeping cash in her petticoat isn t safe but says she has no other safer option. M says they don t use a bank because banks don t encourage small savers.

Son Ripon marries and moves away in February, and stops helping with the household expenses, but is soon back. Ripon tries his hand at driving an auto rickshaw but has an accident.

Transaction summary for H AND M OF BERI BAD WEST OUTSIDE (07) Formal bank services: Saving at bank: A: H has a dormant account at Agrani Bank, no transactions for two years, balance about 300 taka. (In late Oct M says they don t use a bank because banks don t encourage small savers) MFI services: MFI savings: A: Prime Social Development Society (an offshoot of Federal Savings, a failed slum bank). M is a member since June member group. She deposits 150 savings in late Oct 99. But she doesn t trust Prime who don t stick to their word and keep changing their rules. She plans to withdraw her balance. Early Nov H reports they have stopped depositing: Prime worker Farzana promised a loan but never gave one. Late Nov we hear Bibi has withdrawn 1,300 from her balance of 1,560 taka, but got this in instalments, not all at once. Private savings: Saving in the home: A: M reports they use an old suitcase for storing cash at home. Saving on the person: A: In late Nov H says he trusts his wife to keep any spare cash and she keeps it in the pocket of her petticoat. Early Dec M keeps income from day labour in her petticoat. In early Feb she has 100 taka tied into her sari. In early Mar there is 150 taka in her pocket. Savings clubs: ROSCA: A: H is in a 20-taka-a-day ROSCA, deposits 100 taka in early Nov (was ill and couldn t afford the remaining 50): draw will be 7,000 taka and he hopes to start a grocery shop since he is getting too ill to continue his rickshaw driving. Members are rickshaw drivers and petty businessmen. He puts in another 120 taka in late Nov (taka which they withdrew from Prime when M left that NGO see above). The ROSCA collapsed before he take his prize but he did get his money back about 6,000 taka in early December This was immediately spent on his health treatment and household needs. Saving up club: A: early Nov H pays 20 taka into a 2-taka-a-day saving-up club (couldn t afford the other 10 taka). He says that as 2 taka is a small amount he can save several days-worth at a time. Deposits come from rickshaw earnings. In early Dec we hear that he and his daughter hold memberships and he is paying 4 taka a day for a total of 120 in the period (sourced from son s rickshaw income). No deposits in late Dec, H too ill to pay. 4 taka a day deposited early Jan. On Eid eve in early Jan the ASCA was dissolved and members each got 900 taka, including H and his daughter. Spent on Eid goods. Reciprocal transactions: Interest free loans (howlats) taken: A: H took a howlat of 2,000 from a relative in Aug 99 and repays 1,000 of it from cash withdrawn from Prime late Nov. Was supposed to repay balance Jan but failed, and it is still outstanding at end of the research year. B: in early Dec H takes and quickly repays 30 taka from a neighbour for household uses.
