"Cooperative banking involves bringing together cooperatives that aim to fuse their respective resources to provide financial services for the various needs of small borrowers in the community. Small farmers and fisherfolk who are members of agricultural cooperatives are just among the many beneficiaries of this scheme. This book is thus very relevant and timely as it provides fundamental information on how cooperative banking operates in the Philippines. Related laws and policies are cited and specific cases are featured to emphasize the critical aspects of the cooperative banking process." - From the Book
