KEY FEATURES
Microfinance : Microfinance plays a significant role in rural finance by providing small loans, savings, and other financial services to low-income rural households and small businesses. Microfinance institutions (MFIs) specialize in reaching rural populations who may have limited access to formal financial institutions. Microfinance services help rural entrepreneurs start and expand their businesses, including agricultural and non-agricultural activities.
Rural Banking : Establishing banking infrastructure in rural areas is crucial for promoting financial inclusion. Rural banks or branches of commercial banks in rural areas provide basic banking services such as savings accounts, current accounts, remittances, and access to credit. These banks often work closely with agricultural and rural development programs to provide financial services tailored to rural communities' needs.
