The Origin of the Microloan
Alfred Levin was the head of the Royal Bank’s Social Policy Action Group from 1966 to 1982. He was a visionary and people advocate. He researched, envisioned, and brought about the Community Branches which were in Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, and Vancouver. It was through these Community Branches that people could obtain microloans and learn how to manage their money. Alfred Levin’s “Money Habits Workshops” were available to all Royal Bank customers.

As you may have guessed, Alfred Levin was Monica Levin’s father. It’s interesting to note how masterfully he uses hand gestures during this interview!
