MICROFINANCE SCHEME  (English, Paperback, Mohammad Afsar Alam)

Micro-lending is a relatively recent development in the traditional banking sector. It's an umbrella phrase for the banking and financial services offered by organizations whose primary goal is alleviating poverty to those not currently servicing conventional financial institutions. Typically, low-income women have been the focus of microlending initiatives. It is intended that anyone interested in rural finance, including students, attorneys, activists, academics, human rights agencies, researchers, and non-governmental organizations, would find this latest version a helpful book. All the chapters of this book have been peer reviewed by a panel of experts.
