D【2016届湖北武汉中学高三10月月考】
Starting a bank a child's play? Absolutely, if you ask some enterprising youngsters in India, who have not only managed to establish one, but also, unlike many of the large International banks, run it successfully since 2001.What's even more impressive is that the young bankers and their 9,000 4- clients(客户) are all homeless!
The Children's Development Khazana (treasure) opened its first branch in 2001 at a homeless shelter in New Delhi as a way to help the street children protect their hard-earned money from thieves.Since then, the idea has caught on like wildfire.
Today, Khazana has 12 branches all across New Delhi, with a total of Rupees 12lakh (about 22.000USD) in deposits.Not only that, there are now 77 affiliated branches(附属分支)in other parts of Asia, ranging from Nepal, Bangladesh and Afghanistan to the island of Sri Lanka and even, Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia.While no deposit or balance is too small for the bank, they do have strict regulations about where the money is earned from.Funds obtained by begging or selling drugs are not welcomed at this bank!
Also, unlike the real banks, all employees are volunteers, which means that they go to school or a paying job during the day and work at the bank in the evening.To ensure that everybody gets a chance to participate in running the branch, two volunteer managers are elected from the client base every six months.
