They do not have physical collateral and creditors are reluctant to invest in them. Yet in India, microfinance is being used to reduce poverty, empower women, and boost development.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eMicrofinance and Development in Emerging Economies\u003c\/em\u003e, Nishi Malhotra argues that the financial services provided to low-income groups or individuals through microfinance and group lending outside the traditional financial system are the best way to combat these problems and address the economic exclusion that blights so many. Using India as a case study, Malhotra examines the Indian government's use of various social welfare programmes to increase both financial literacy and social equality and ultimately achieve sustainable development. Suitable for bankers, teachers, policymakers, and students, this book clearly identifies the practical and theoretical implications of this alternative microfinance model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNishi Malhotra\u003c\/strong\u003e is Assistant Professor at OP Jindal Global University and received her B Com (Hons) from Shri Ram College of Commerce and her MBA from the Management Development Institute Gurgaon.
