A Web based loan security management tool

Abstract

This study focused at designing and implementing a Web Based Loan Security Management Tool (LSMT), which will assist micro finance institutions to identify any object that is already in the loan security database. The LSMT developed during the study, compares the intended security and all securities already in the database. The system design used the three-tier client server architecture to implement the inference mechanism while database component was implemented using Java and Mysql. The user interface was implemented using html-PHP. The LSMT helps users (loans officers) to identify any security item that is already being used for another loan and this avoids having one security item for more than one loan.
