Microfinance has been hotly debated by ever-colliding camps of ardent supporters, who believe that microfinance addresses credit market failures and provides a durable answer to the problem of the poverty, and staunch critics, who argue that lending by microfinance institutions is wasteful, and the interest rates are too high. To bring further insight into this important debate, this book presents comprehensive historical, political, and economic perspectives on the latest issues in microfinance. An impressive array of scholars and practitioners build a framework for thinking about regulation to drive sustainable, inclusive development. With case studies of programs in India, Ghana, and Bangladesh, and examinations of the effects of gender and religion on financial decision-making, this comprehensive collection offers something valuable to scholars, policymakers, and practitioners?anyone with a vested interest in promoting innovation in microfinance. 606 $aEconomic development projects?Finance 606 $aPersonal finance 606 $aPension plans 606 $aDevelopment Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/625000 606 $aPersonal Finance/Wealth Management/Pension Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/622000 615 0$aEconomic development projects?Finance. 615 0$aPersonal finance. 615 0$aPension plans. 615 14$aDevelopment Finance. 615 24$aPersonal Finance/Wealth Management/Pension Planning. 676 $a332 702 $aCumming$b Douglas$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDong$b Yizhe$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHou$b Wenxuan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSen$b Binayak$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255039303321 996 $aMicrofinance for Entrepreneurial Development$91942946 997 $aUNINA
