Abstract

In Sri Lanka, a fish trader is also a money lender. The producer are lent money without collateral, no explicit interest rate, and no repayment schedule. It is believed that in so doing, the trader pays the producer substantially lower than the prevailing market price. Fish has to be disposed of immediately to make sure that it reaches the consumers in good quality. A considerable distance separates the consumer from the producer, thus, an intervention is necessary to link both players.
