Introduction
Meaning of micro finance:
Microfinance is usually understood to entail the provision of financial services to micro-
entrepreneurs and small businesses, which lack access to banking and related services due
to the high transaction costs associated with serving these client categories. The two main
mechanisms for the delivery of financial services to such clients are (1) relationship-based
banking for individual entrepreneurs and small businesses; and (2) group-based models,
where several entrepreneurs come together to apply for loans and other services as a group.
Microfinance is a broad category of services, which includes microcredit. Microcredit is
provision of credit services to poor clients. Although microcredit is one of the aspects of
microfinance, conflation of the two terms is endemic in public discourse. Critics often
attack microcredit while referring to it indiscriminately as either 'microcredit' or
'microfinance'. Due to the broad range of microfinance services, it is difficult to assessimpact, and very few studies have tried to assess its full impact. Proponents often claim that
microfinance lifts people out of poverty, but the evidence is mixed.
The term "microfinance," once associated almost exclusively with small-value loans to the
poor, is now increasingly used to refer to a broad array of products (including payments,
savings, and insurance) tailored to meet the particular needs of low-income individuals.
People living in poverty, like everyone else, need a diverse range of financial services torun their businesses, build assets, smooth consumption, and manage risks.

Poor people usually address their need for financial services through a variety of financial
relationships, mostly informal. Credit is available from informal moneylenders, but usually
at a very high cost to borrowers. Savings services are available through a variety of
informal relationships like savings clubs, rotating savings and credit associations, and other
mutual savings societies. But these tend to be erratic and somewhat insecure. Traditionally,
banks have not considered poor people to be a viable market.
Different types of financial services providers for poor people have emerged - non-
government organizations (NGOs); cooperatives; community-based development
institutions like self-help groups and credit unions; commercial and state banks; insurance
and credit card companies; telecommunications and wire services; post offices; and other
points of sale - offering new possibilities.
These providers have increased their product offerings and improved their methodologies
and services over time, as poor people proved their ability to repay loans, and their desire
to save. In many institutions, there are multiple loan products providing working capital for
small businesses, larger loans for durable goods, loans for childrens education and to cover
emergencies. Safe, secure deposit services have been particularly well received by poor
clients, but in some countries NGO microfinance institutions are not permitted to collect
deposits.

History of microfinance
Over the past centuries practical visionaries, from the Franciscan monks who founded the
community-oriented pawnshops of the 15th century, to the founders of the European credit
union movement in the 19th century (such as Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen) and the
founders of the microcredit movement in the 1970s (such as Muhammad Yunus) have
tested practices and built institutions designed to bring the kinds of opportunities and risk-
management tools that financial services can provide to the doorsteps of poor people.
While the success of the Grameen Bank (which now serves over 7 million poor
Bangladeshi women) has inspired the world, it has proved difficult to replicate this success.
In nations with lower population densities, meeting the operating costs of a retail branch by
serving nearby customers has proven considerably more challenging. Hans Dieter Seibel,
board member of the European Microfinance Platform, is in favor of the group model. This
particular model (used by many Microfinance institutions) makes financial sense, he says,
because it reduces transaction costs. Microfinance programmes also need to be based on
local funds.
The history of micro financing can be traced back as long to the middle of the 1800s when
the theorist Lysander Spooner was writing over the benefits from small credits to
entrepreneurs and farmers as a way getting the people out of poverty. Independently to
Spooner, Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen founded the first cooperative lending banks to
support farmers in rural Germany.
The modern use of the expression "micro financing" has roots in the 1970s when
organizations, such as Grameen Bank of Bangladesh with the microfinance pioneer
Muhammad Yunus, were starting and shaping the modern industry of microfinancing.
Another pioneer in this sector is Akhtar Hameed Khan.

Importance of Micro Finance
According to the latest research done by the World Bank, India is home to almost one third of the worlds
poor (surviving on an equivalent of one dollar a day). Though many central government and state
government poverty alleviation programs are currently active in India, microfinance plays a major
contributor to financial inclusion. In the past few decades it has helped out remarkably in eradicating
poverty. Reports show that people who have taken microfinance have been able to increase their income
and hence the standard of living.
About half of the Indian population still doesnt have a savings bank account and they are deprived of all
banking services. Poor also need financial services to fulfill their needs like consumption, building of
assets and protection against risk. Microfinance institutions serve as a supplement to banks and in some
sense a better one too. These institutions not only offer micro credit but they also provide other financial
services like savings, insurance, remittance and non-financial services like individual counseling, training
and support to start own business and the most importantly in a convenient way. The borrower receives all
these services at her/his door step and in most cases with a repayment schedule of borrowers convenience.
There are certain advantages such as:
1. Credit to Rural Poor:-
Usually rural sector depends on non-institutional agencies for their financial requirements. Micro
financing has been successful in taking institutionalized credit to the doorstep of poor and have made them
economically and socially sound.
2. Poverty Alleviation:-
Due to micro finance poor people get employment. It also helps them to improve their entrepreneurial
skills and encourage them to exploit business opportunities. Employment increases income level which in
turn reduces poverty.
3. Women Empowerment:-
Normally more than 50% of SHGs are formed by women. Now they have greater access to financial
and economical resources. It is a step towards greater security for women. Thus microfinance empowers
poor women economically and socially.
4. Economic Growth:-
-
7/27/2019 Source of Micro Finance in INDIA
7/36
Finance plays a key role in stimulating sustainable economic growth. Due to microfinance, production
of goods and services increases which increases GDP and contributes to economic growth of the country.
5. Mobilization of Savings:-
Microfinance develops saving habits among people. Now poor people with meagre income can also
save and are bankable. The financial resources generated through savings and micro credit obtained from
banks are utilized to provide loans and advances to its members. Thus microfinance helps in mobilization
of savings.
6. Development of Skills:-
Micro financing has been a boon to potential rural entrepreneurs. SHGs encourage its members to set
up business units jointly or individually. They receive training from supporting institutions and learn
leadership qualities. Thus micro finance is indirectly responsible for development of skills.
7. Mutual Help and Cooperation:-
Microfinance promotes mutual help and cooperation among members. The collective efforts of group
promote economic interest and helps in achieving socio-economic transition.
8. Social Welfare
With employment generation the level of income of people increases. They may go for better
education, health, family welfare etc. Thus micro finance leads to social welfare or betterment of society.

Why Micro Finance
Traditionally, banks have not provided financial services, such as loans, to clients with little or no cash
income. Banks incur substantial costs to manage a client account, regardless of how small the sums of
money involved. For example, although the total gross revenue from delivering one hundred loans worth
$1,000 each will not differ greatly from the revenue that results from delivering one loan of $100,000, it
takes nearly a hundred times as much work and cost to manage a hundred loans as it does to manage one.
The fixed cost of processing loans of any size is considerable as assessment of potential borrowers, their
repayment prospects and security; administration of outstanding loans, collecting from delinquent
borrowers, etc., has to be done in all cases. There is a break-even point in providing loans or depositsbelow which banks lose money on each transaction they make. Poor people usually fall below that
breakeven point. A similar equation resists efforts to deliver other financial services to poor people.
In addition, most poor people have few assets that can be secured by a bank as collateral. As documented
extensively by Hernando de Soto and others, even if they happen to own land in the developing world,
they may not have effective title to it. This means that the bank will have little recourse against defaulting
borrowers.
Seen from a broader perspective, the development of a healthy national financial system has long been
viewed as a catalyst for the broader goal of national economic development .However, the efforts ofnational planners and experts to develop financial services for most people have often failed in developing
countries.
Because of these difficulties, when poor people borrow they often rely on relatives or a local moneylender,
whose interest rates can be very high. An analysis of 28 studies of informal money lending rates in 14
countries in Asia, Latin America and Africa concluded that 76% of moneylender rates exceed 10% per
month, including 22% that exceeded 100% per month. Moneylenders usually charge higher rates to poorer
borrowers than to less poor ones. While moneylenders are often demonized and accused of usury, their
services are convenient and fast, and they can be very flexible when borrowers run into problems. Hopes
of quickly putting them out of business have proven unrealistic, even in places where microfinanceinstitutions are active.
Although much progress has been made, the problem has not been solved yet, and the overwhelming
majority of people who earn less than $1 a day, especially in the rural areas, continue to have no practical
access to formal sector finance. Microfinance has been growing rapidly with $25 billion currently at work
in microfinance loans. It is estimated that the industry needs $250 billion to get capital to all the poor
-

people who need it. The industry has been growing rapidly, and concerns have arisen that the rate of
capital flowing into microfinance is a potential risk unless managed well.
Evolution
The beginning of the micro finance movement in India could be traced to the self-help group (SHG) - banklinkage program (SBLP) started as a pilot project in 1992 by National Bank for Agricultural and RuralDevelopment (NABARD). This program not only proved to be very successful, but has also emerged asthe most popular model of micro finance in India. Other approaches like micro finance institutions (MFIs)also emerged subsequently in the country.
Recognizing the potential of micro finance to positively influence the development of the poor, theReserve Bank, NABARD and Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) have taken severalinitiatives over the years to give a further fillip to the micro finance movement in India.
Microfinance India is a national level advocacy platform, initiated by ACCESS Development Services,
spurned off to ACCESS-ASSIST, to engage various stakeholders and develop a comprehensive vision for
the entire sector. Indian microfinance remains a diverse and complex arena with its array of products and
methodologies. Microfinance India seeks to promote the distinct voices of those associated with the field
regulators, policy makers, government, banks, insurance companies, MFIs, donors, academicians, SHPIs
etc. The sector has matured and expanded its ambit of stakeholders - attracting new entrants such as rating
agencies and social equity investors. Cumulatively, these new players, their financial instruments, deliverymodels, and technology platforms - emphasize the need for an expanded understanding of the arena and all
its associated contributors. Microfinance India Summit, starting under the aegis of CARE, ACCESS and
now ACCESS ASSIST has become the most significant platform for the future visioning of Indias
microfinance sector.
ACCESS - ASSIST is a public charitable trust whose overall mandate is to work at all levels of the
financial value chain, on one hand to organize the demand on the ground and on the other hand to engage
with supply side actors and catalyze greater flow of funds to the poor. The three tier strategy of ASSIST
has allowed focusing on micro and macro issues, gaps and needs of the Indian Microfinance sector, with.
The aim is to incubate new institutions to enable their self-sufficiency and self-sustainability underspecialized technical assistance. . to cater to varied demands of the growing microfinance sector through
streamlined and structured services to emerging MFIs and supporting the enabling environment through
the Microfinance India platform.. To optimize its resources and maximize the results of its interventions,
ACCESS ASSIST believes in partnering with key stakeholders in the sector in order to develop mutually
reinforcing strategies, bring convergence of competencies and build consensus on key issues.

The Scenario
Estimated that 350 million people live Below Poverty Line.
This translates to approximately 75 million households.
Annual credit demand by the poor in the country is estimated to be about Rs. 60,000 crores.
Only about 5 % of rural people have access to micro finance.
1 Progress under microfinance during 2011-12
1.1 An update on micro Finance as at the end of March 2012 is being presented in 3 different sections. The
progress under the SHG-Bank linkage programme has been covered in the first part, while the activities ofmFIs has been covered in the second part. Various innovative initiatives and support services like capacitybuilding of all stakeholders of micro Finance programme etc. is covered in the third part. Maps detailingSHG coverage ratio in ten priority States is covered in the final part. More detailed statistical informationon the progress of these activities have been presented at the end of the report.
SHG-Bank Linkage Programme
Detailed analysis of the SHG-Bank Linkage Programme across the geographical spread of the country andacross the financing agencies is being presented in this section. The analysis covers the broader

components of the programme, namely inclusive growth, savings, loans and the recovery performance.Table-1 gives the growth of SHGs saving as well as credit linkedfor the last 3 years, separately for allGroups, Groups formed under SGSY and exclusive Women Groups.
1.2 Under the SHG-Bank linkage programme, over 103 million rural households have now access toregular savings through 7.96 million SHGs linked to banks. About 27% of these SHGs are savings linkedthrough the SGSY programme the rural poverty alleviation programme of the Government of India
where predominantly households below the poverty line are admitted as members. There has been adecline in the amount of savings balance with banks to the extent of 6.7% as compared to the previousyear although the number of SHGs saving linked has shown a growth of 6.7% during the year. Thisdecline is almost entirely attributable to the groups formed under SGSY where the decline was to theextent of 23.2%. Increasing awareness at the SHG level about the advantage of using the savings forinternal loaning is also partly responsible for the decline in saving balance with banks.
The number of saving linked SHGs now stands at 7.96 million with a membership of over 103 millionpoor households. While bulk of these savings is used for internal lending within the Group (over 70%), thebalance is maintained in the savings accounts with the financing banks. Over 79% of SHGs linked to
banks are exclusive women groups, which is one of the most distinguishing features of microfinance sectorin the country. The balance in the savings accounts of the banks as at the end of March 2012 stood at`6551.41 crore. Among the major States, Karnataka SHGs maintain the highest S.B. balance of over`16000 per SHG followed by Punjab of nearly `12500 per SHG. Among the regions, southern region ishighest at `10080 per SHG and northeastern region recorded the lowest balance of `4159 per SHG. On anaverage, the SHGs maintain a balance of `8230. Commercial Banks account for 58% of the savingsaccount maintained by SHGs and RRBs 27% and Cooperative Banks the remaining 15%.

Further, over 4.36 million SHGs have now access to direct credit facilities from the banks and the totalbank loans outstanding against these groups is over `36340 crore as on 31 March 2012 i.e. an average of`83500 per group. About 1.15 million SHGs were extended fresh loans to the extent of`16535 crore during2011-12 by all banks averaging `1.44 lakh per group. Although fresh lending to SHGs during the yearshowed an increase of 13.7% over last year, the steady decline in the number of SHGs being extendedfresh loans by banks for the last 3 years is a matter of concern.
Number of SHGs having outstanding loans with banks is also showing a decline partly due to thecontinued decline in the number of SHGs being extended fresh loans by banks for the last 3 years.Statement I-A to I-E appended indicate the overall progress under the SHG-Bank and mFI-Bank LinkageProgramme as on 31.3.2012.
1.3 While the quantum of fresh loans issued to SHGs by banks rose by 13.7% during the year to `16535crore (to 11.48 lakh SHGs) as against `14548 crore disbursed last year (to 11.96 lakh SHGs), the number
-

of SHGs obtaining fresh loans from banks during the year declined by 4%. What causes more concern isthe fact that the number has been declining during the last 3 years, though the rate of decline has comedown from nearly 24% last year to 4% this year. Kerala, West Bengal and Odissa reported maximumdecline in the number of SHGs being extended fresh loans during the year. The average size of fresh loansextended ranged from `1.80 lakh per SHG in the southern region (`1.5 lakh last year) to `0.75 lakh in thewestern region (the lowest average was`0.65 lakh for eastern region last year). The average loan sizeacross the regions was `1.44 lakh per SHG. Considering that on an average 80% of the SHG membersavail loan at a time, the average per member loan issued works out to `14000. Among the financing banks,
Commercial Banks and RRBs extended loan of `1.65 lakh on an average per SHG while cooperativeBanks lent `0.65 lakh only per SHG. While Commercial Banks accounted for 63% of the savings balanceof SHGs, their share in fresh lending to SHGs was only 60% whereas RRBs with a Savings share of only20% accounted for 30% of the fresh loans issued during the year. This is suggestive of cautious attitude ofthe Commercial Banks in lending for SHGs as compared to RRBs.

Partly the decline can be attributed to the continued decline

in the number of SHGs being extended fresh loans by banks over the last 3 years. All states exceptKarnataka, Himachal Pradesh and Puducherry in the southern region recorded decline in the number ofSHGs having outstanding loans. Average amount of loan outstanding ranged from `47000 per SHG ineastern and western region to `1.08 lakh in the southern region. The average loan outstanding across theregions works out to `0.83 lakh per SHG. Among the States, all southern states averaged about `1.07 lakh(Karnataka being the highest at `1.30 lakh per SHG) or above per SHG while Gujarat recorded the lowestaverage of ` 24000 per SHG. Among the agencies, Commercial Banks had an average outstanding loan of`1 lakh per SHG while RRBs had `0.67 lakh and Cooperative Banks `0.43 lakh. Considering that
substantial portion (nearly 70%) of the savings from the members of SHGs also goes for internal lendingbesides the outstanding credit from the banks ; the total pooled resources outstanding at the memberslevel can be pegged at over `51000 crore.

Statement II C and Statement V indicate the Bank wise and State wise position of the loansoutstanding against the SHGs as on 31 March 2012.
1.5 The increase in NPA against loans to SHGs continued to escalate during the current year as well. Inabsolute terms, the gross NPA against loans to SHGs increased from `1474 crore at the end of March 2011to `2213 crore by March 2012. In percentage terms it increased from 4.72% last year to 6.09% during thecurrent year. It was only 2.9% during 2009-10. This is a matter of concern for the microfinance sector andthe causes for the declining performance of recovery are to be analyzed and remedial action initiatedurgently. The total gross NPA against loans to SHGs stood at `2212.74 crore as on 31.3.2012 against the
total outstanding loan of `36340 crore. Among the regions, southern region with a NPA of 4.98% (3.79%last year) was the lowest while Central Region with an alarming 13.2% (10.7% last year) was the highest.What causes grave concern is the high NPAs in major states like Uttar Pradesh (12.5%), Odissa (11.9%),Tamil Nadu (9.6%) and Kerala(9%). Table 2 and 3 illustrate the comparative position of NPAs againstloans to SHGs by banks during the last 3 years while Fig 6 and 7 gives the graphical presentation of theNPA position.
