Despite the boom and the government's efforts to increase access in rural areas, rural financial markets have shrunk in relative terms. As a result, access to finance by micro, small, and medium-size enterprises and marginal, small, and medium-size farmers - the ""missing middle"" - remains limited, which is significant because these groups are the engines of growth in rural Bangladesh in terms of employment, contribution to GDP, and prospects for future growth. 410 0$aDirections in development (Washington, D.C.) 410 0$aDirections in development (Washington, D.C.).$pFinance. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aRural credit$zBangladesh 606 $aAgricultural credit$zBangladesh 606 $aBanks and banking$zBangladesh 606 $aFinancial institutions$zBangladesh 606 $aRural industries$zBangladesh 615 0$aRural credit 615 0$aAgricultural credit 615 0$aBanks and banking 615 0$aFinancial institutions 615 0$aRural industries 676 $a332.7/1095492 700 $aFerrari$b Aurora$01474110 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bYDX 801 2$bBTCTA 801 2$bBAKER 801 2$bYDXCP 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778352703321 996 $aIncreasing access to rural finance in Bangladesh$93834511 997 $aUNINA
