Since the turn of the century, the status of women in India has been changing due to growing industrialization, globalization, and social legislation. Last ten years of Indian economy make it evident that the structure of ownership in different sectors has changed. Many women entered the world of business, of trade commerce and they have become successful entrepreneurs in various business activities. This growth rate of women’s participation in economic activities is much lower than the expected rate. Because in India, there are still many social and cultural restrictions on women.Women entrepreneurship development is the instrument of women empowerment. It is very necessary to give keen attention over the empowerment of women in the rural areas. As in India there are around 7 lakh villages and more than of 70% population live in villages. In rural sector 56% male and 33% of the females are in labour force. About 66% of female population in the rural sector are Idle and unutilized. So rural women’s economic and social development is necessary for overall economic development of society and nation.The present paper addresses challenges faced by women entrepreneurs in rural areas and also explores the opportunities prevailing for rural women entrepreneurs.","PeriodicalId":35489,"journal":{"name":"GIS-Business","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74777296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The County Government is mandated to provide services including the health services which have been enabled by devolution functions such as transfer of funds. However, Counties especially within the patrol communities have been faced with myriad of challenges in obtaining the standard services from the County offices such as medical and education services. Some of the mentioned causes of poor services to the community from the literature has been leaders who are not objective in practicing the best human resource practices, poor communication facilities in the County thus community are not able to access the needed services in timely manner and lot of corruptions in the County offices. In addition, there is lack of proper structures or systems put in place to account for the resources allocated. From the past studies in the related fielded also present a methodological gap where most analysis is based on County reports lacking quantitative analysis while others uses only descriptive statistics to analyze the data. This study thus, fills the gap by looking at broad construct which give a broader picture of the health service provision. In addition, this study combines both descriptive and inferential statistics to determine the relationships between the study variables. The study therefore hypothesizes that: There is no relationship between devolved resource allocation and quality of health services provision (H01) and there is no relationship between human resource practices and quality of health services provision (H02); Research study was anchored on institutional theory. Descriptive survey was used; The findings of the research will be used by other researcher’s as a reference to what they will do in future not forgetting that it was used as a source of literature review to their studies. 65 respondents were chosen through random sampling that was stratified. The research questionnaires were administered by the researcher himself to the respondents. Focus group discussion was also done to the community members. Data was analyzed through f(n) and descriptive statistics and presented using tables and graphs. The research study established that resource allocation and human resource practices have a great influence in the provision of health services. The study recommends that Governor of Wajir County should develop and formulate guidelines, governing structure and strategic plans for effective implementation of county resources and revenue that will enable provision of quality healthcare.","PeriodicalId":35489,"journal":{"name":"GIS-Business","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74548789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the Republic of Uzbekistan, since the early years of independence, commercial banks have been experiencing many issues concerning bad and/or doubtful debts. These types of loans appeared because of either poor and inaccurate collateral assessment or bad credit portfolio management. However the share of bad and doubtful debts in state owned banks is higher than private commercial banks. This paper studies the origin of the issue related to bad debts and answers why state owned banks have had an upward trend in the amount of those debts for the last 5 years. In addition, it develops the ways of addressing those issues.","PeriodicalId":35489,"journal":{"name":"GIS-Business","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91153559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
