Inadequate access to financial services is considered to be one of the main reasons behind inadequate economic opportunity and poverty in rural India. Microfinance has played a significant role in shaping the rural financial scenario. There is a need for micro-finance institutions to focus on a heterogeneous demand structure for the financial services provided to the rural poor. This book aims to provide an up-to-date and in-depth analysis of borrowing and risk taking behavior of rural people, which might help to design financial products and delivery of services in the rural market. It attempts to highlight and review the actual meaning, functions and challenges of microfinance through SHGs in the rapidly changing rural scenario and livelihood aspects of the group members. In addition, the present volume also investigates the effectiveness of government schemes to promote rural development. It is intended for those who are interested in understanding the grassroots reality of the Indian rural financial sector. 000695261 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 20, 2013). 000695261 650_0 $$aMicrofinance$$zIndia. 000695261 650_0 $$aRural development$$zIndia. 000695261 7001_ $$aBhandari, Amit K.,$$eeditor of compilation. 000695261 7001_ $$aKundu, Ashok,$$eeditor of compilation. 000695261 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z8132212835$$z9788132212836$$w(OCoLC)843532562 000695261 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000695261 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-81-322-1284-3$$zOnline Access 000695261 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:695261$$pGLOBAL_SET 000695261 980__ $$aEBOOK 000695261 980__ $$aBIB 000695261 982__ $$aEbook 000695261 983__ $$aOnline 000695261 994__ $$a92$$bISE
