סיכום:Micro finance is an emerging reality in contemporary development discourse and has come to occupy a significant place in financial intermediation in India. Kudumbashree of Kerala, a community- based self-help organisation of poor women, although started as a micro-finance agency soon became an active subsystem of local governments and embarked upon several activities that address the question of poverty reduction.
