and other financial services and products of
very small amount to the poor.
Introduced by Nobel Laureate and founder of

 The poor are like “bonsai", which could have grown into
taller trees if given proper soil. Micro Credit can unleash the
hidden energy of the poor so that they can take care of
themselves
In India Micro Finance is linked to Self
Help Groups(SHG)
 A SHG is a registered or unregistered group of micro entrepreneurs
having homogeneous social and economic backgrounds. They save
money, to contribute to a common fund and to meet their
emergency needs on the basis of mutual help
Functioning of SHG-bank linkage
program
1. NGOs and banks interact with the poor, especially women, to form small
homogenous groups.
2. They are taught simple accounting methods to maintain their accounts.
3. They meet frequently and collect small amount of savings from their members.
4. This pooled savings enable them to open a formal bank account in the name of
the group.
5. This is the first step in establishing link with the formal banking system
6. Out of the pooled savings they give small loans to members for meeting their
small emergent needs
Functioning of SHG-bank linkage
program

dynamics, decision-making, and funds management.
8. When the pooled thrift grows they can receive external funds in multiples
of their group savings.
