A Symposium on Savings-Led Microfinance and the Rural Poor
Summary. Microfinance institutions have successfully reached only a small fraction of the world's poorest rural families, with significant geographic and capacity limitations. The paper examines savings-led microfinance models, particularly community-based rotating savings and credit groups, as a scalable alternative to traditional microfinance institutions for serving rural poor populations in developing countries.
