Mike and 2006 Nobel Peace Prize Winner Muhammad Yunus discussed the need for expanding access to capital in developing nations at a Milken Institute breakfast in October 2007. Dr. Yunus spoke about the remarkable success of the Grameen Bank in Bangledesh in providing microloans to poor people, mostly women, so they could start their own businesses. Mike cited how financial innovations have greatly enhanced prosperity in the U.S. and Europe, and said that the development of similar markets in developing nations will help greater numbers of people prosper.
