The annual impact monitoring is done by all field workers of Grameen Bank. It is such a practice that blames the bank itself rather than others for not achieving its goals. Grameen Bank evaluates the programs through twelve indicators to check whether the members are moving out of poverty. Housing, food, health, children's education, entrepreneurial ability, vegetable cultivation, and other qualities of life are evaluated.

This procedure creates awareness among the staff members about the ultimate objectives of their work. It clarifies their mission and their understanding of the organization.

Through the initiative of the Hon’ble Chairman of the Board of Directors, Prof. AKM Saiful Majid, the ten indicators of Grameen Bank were revised according to the need of socio-economic conditions of the borrowers (members) in a workshop with all directors on 28 February 2022.
