Under the broad paradigm of mixed methods, one in depth interview, content analysis and ratio analysis were conducted. The result evidences a clear gap between Shariah and practice of Islamic risk management, difference in Shariah and legal remedy, and availability of credible internal control mechanism that are responsible for effective risk analysis and management. The top priority risk is the operational risk followed by market and credit risks. Risk management activities are mostly reported using annual reports. The declining return ratios with respect to the decreasing risk ratios indicate existence of conventional mean variance frontier in Islamic finance. However, this low risk low return and credit to asset ratios exhibit low risk taking tendency of the bank. As a result liquidity ratio is increasing but at the cost of profitability. Bank has to build an internal risk management culture by training the employees and building up the internal control system.

We first examine the GB microcredit impact on poverty alleviation with respect to its member's income, consumption, health, children's education and women empowerment. In general, most of the findings from the literature have shown that Bank members are doing well to reduce their vulnerability and to increase income and consumption, health improvement literacy of children and empowerment compared to non-members and controlled groups. However, this paper also examines some criticisms about the effective uses of microcredit rather than commercial mentality for profit making of microfinance institutions (MFIs).
