| Summary: | The subject of micro-finance is considered as significant and emerging trend in the present
scenario for the empowerment of women. Micro finance programmes are promoted as an
important strategy for women’s empowerment. Micro finance builds mutual trust and confidence
between bankers and rural poor to encourage banking in a segment of population where formal
financial institutions usually find difficult to reach. The present paper examines the economic
impact of micro finance beneficiaries and whether the economic empowerment has resulted in
the generation of a set of self reliant women. The study shows about the positive impact of the
development programme of Kudumbashree, a micro financial institution in Kerala, India. |
