Creating a microfinance simulation game for graduate student

[Guy_Stuart@harvard.edu]

I am planning commission the development of a simulation game for my students in a class I teach on microfinance (small loans and savings accounts for poor people in the developing world, cf. Grameen Bank). The simulation would allow the students to manage a microfinance institution in all its complexities. I am curious as to what the experiences of others on the list have been with regard to developing such games, and whether there is a financial institution game out there already.
