1. Topic
Impact of Micro Finance in India 2. Introduction
Microfinance in India became known mainly through NABARD SHGs bank linkage program and the Microfinance Institutions working through Grameen and JLG models. Microfinance has been used as an important tool for poverty alleviation. It refers to making financial services (credit, saving and insurance) available to the poor who don¶t have access to regular banks or finance/insurance companies. The recent Task Force on Micro Finance defined Microfinance as "provision of thrift, credit and other financial services and products of very small amounts to the poor in rural, semi urban or urban areas, for enabling them to raise their income levels and improve living standards". However, at present credit forms the bulk of micro finance activity. The term ³Micro´ literally means ³small´, but RBI¶s recent guidelines for priority sector have defined loans up to Rs. 50,000 as microcredit.

The Managers have the dual responsibility of managing office and field. However, the success of a supervisor depends on the frequency and duration of time spent in the field. They will have to frequently travel to remote village locations and visit poor habitations. Our supervisors spend most of their time in the field locations and manage the office affairs in the remaining time. 8. References and Bibliography y y y y y y
