Following the positive impact of microfinance on poverty reduction,
women empowerment, and microenterprise development in some
countries in Asia and Africa, a huge amount of time has been
devoted by researchers to understanding how this concept can be
used as a catalyst for transforming and sustaining the economies of
developing and emerging countries. Though there are a few books on
the role of microfinance in reducing poverty in developing
countries across world, there is no specific book that explores the
role of microfinance in transforming and sustaining economies of
developing and emerging countries. Transforming Economies Through
Microfinance in Developing Nations seeks to explore how the
provision of microfinance to individuals and groups can contribute
to the economic transformation and sustainability of the economies
of developing and emerging countries. Covering key topics such as
climate change, entrepreneurship, and rural development, this
reference work is ideal for government officials, entrepreneurs,
policymakers, researchers, academicians, practitioners, scholars,
instructors, and students.
Despite the widespread promotion of microfinance as a key strategy
for reducing poverty and fostering microenterprise development in
developing countries, there is still a lack of understanding about
how this concept can be used to empower women in these regions. The
role played by formal and informal institutions in developing
countries in facilitating or disabling women's empowerment and
social mobility has not previously been adequately explored.
Empowering Women Through Microfinance in Developing Countries
addresses this knowledge gap by examining the influence of
microfinance on women's empowerment in developing countries. It
offers theoretical and empirical insights from industry experts,
experienced researchers, and policymakers on the problems,
processes, and prospects of using microfinance as a catalyst for
women's empowerment in the developing world. The book covers a
range of topics, including the impact of microfinance interventions
on women's empowerment, financial inclusion, microfinance and
female entrepreneurship, and poverty reduction among women, and
small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) growth. The insights
provided in this book will be a valuable resource for researchers,
students, microfinance institutions, policymakers, state
institutions, managers, non-governmental organizations, and
financial institutions looking to expand their product portfolio
and outreach. The book also provides policy directions and
rethinking of practice in using microfinance as a strategy for
eliminating barriers to women's empowerment in developing
countries.
Following the positive contribution of microfinance to economic
development in some parts of South East Asia and Africa, a huge
amount of time has been devoted by researchers to understand this
concept for sustainable development in Africa, particularly in
Sub-Saharan Africa. The concept of microfinance also has
significant positive relationship with microbusiness development.
Though there are a few books on the relationship between
microfinance and poverty reduction in Africa and some developing
countries across world. There is no specific book that explores the
relationship between microfinance and sustainable development in
Africa. Certainly, the use of microfinance for poverty reduction
and economic development in the developing world is growing.
However, this concept needs to be expanded to ensure its
application with the view to achieving sustainable development in
developing countries, particularly in Africa. Therefore, this book
seeks to explore how the provision of microfinance to individuals,
groups and business organisations facilitates economic growth and
sustainable development in Africa. In this regard, this book hopes
to examine the complex relationship between receipt of
microfinance, poverty reduction, economic growth and microbusiness
development, focusing on the provision of small credit facilities
as a driver of sustainable development in Africa. This book aims to
examine and bring on board the various views and perspectives on
the relationship between microfinance and sustainable economic
development in Africa through industry experts, experienced
researchers and policymakers. The concept of microfinance and its
relationship with sustainable development in Africa will be
explored by these experts and contributors from different
perspectives with the view to forming an opinion on the problems,
processes and prospects of microfinance in Africa. The focus here
is Sub-Saharan Africa, which has witnessed growing activities of
microfinance institutions. Theoretical and empirical insight to be
provided in this book will be a priceless resource to microfinance
institutions, policymakers, state institutions, managers and
non-governmental organisations working in developing countries
particularly in Africa. This book is envisaged to also benefit
financial institutions that are looking to expand their product
portfolio and outreach. The book will offer great insight into
theoretical, policy-oriented and practical ways to address some of
the challenges of using microfinance for sustainable development in
Africa. Given the focus of this book on the nexus between
microfinance and sustainable development, there will be a
broadening of ideas on how the provision of microfinance can aid
sustainable development in Africa.

development in the developing world is growing. However, this
concept needs to be expanded to ensure its successful application
for achieving longer-term economic growth and sustainability in
developing countries, particularly in parts of the world such as
Africa. As such, further research into the relationship between
microfinance and sustainable development in developing regions is
required to fully understand the opportunities for effective use of
microfinance for poverty reduction and economic development.
Microfinance and Sustainable Development in Africa examines the
complex relationship between receipt of microfinance, poverty
reduction, economic growth, and microbusiness development, focusing
on the provision of small credit facilities as a driver of
sustainable development in Africa. Its coverage of topics such as
microbusiness, social finance, and sustainable development make
this book an ideal reference source for academicians, researchers,
