...Genre Analysis Report for Management of Information system This report aims at examining components, such as the content, organization, and grammar, constructed in one published research article studying security issues in mobile payment from customers’ viewpoint. This paper delivers a clever idea, the idea that the author focuses on studying security issues in mobile payment from perspective of customer even though the previous researchers addressed technical details of security from the perspective of merchants or the mobile payment service providers. Through the analysis of the paper, I have approached security issues in e-payment systems, which is the subject of my research paper, with another aspect, so that I could conduct my research paper to borrow the idea in security issues during the use of e-payment systems. I proceeded to analyze the selective article, following items, such information and language structures, provided by the Genre Analysis Checklist to collect evidence about the organizational and grammatical features employed in the article.

...Management Information System for MFIs 1.0 Background A good Management Information System (MIS) is the heart of any organization and this is true for MFIs as well. For e.g. MFIs may have capable and motivated staff, but if they lack systematized information, they will be unable to perform up to their potential. A sound MIS is the key to achieve sustainability as it helps in providing the right type of information in achieving sustainability. It helps in reducing default, optimal rotation of portfolio, establishing sustainable interest rates, improving operational efficiency, generating reports at various levels for various stakeholders and review the progress. (Box 1). Common Shortcomings observed in the Information Management Practices: 1.) The basis formats are not comprehensive of them could be combined. 2) The flow and logistic aspects of transfer of information from Society to Federation to HQs and vice versa is not very efficient. 3) The reports produced by the MIS are not in line with the best practices information required. 4) There is no accurate aging analysis of all loans including the past due loans. At best, the aging analysis is approximate and there is no proper asset classification backed up by provisioning. 5) Clients are not classified as good, delinquent and defaulting borrowers based on (international best practices) criteria. 6) Credit history of the borrowers is not available. 7) Clear repayment schedules for borrowers at various levels do not exist...

A management information system (MIS) provides information that is needed to manage organizations efficiently and effectively.
