{"product_id":"the-microfinance-revolution-marguerite-robinson-9780821345245","title":"The Microfinance Revolution: Sustainable Finance for the Poor","description":"Around the world, a revolution is occurring in finance for low-income people. The microfinance revolution is delivering financial services to the economically active poor on a large scale through competing, financially self-sufficient institutions. In a few countries this has already happened; in others it is under way. The emerging microfinance industry has profound implications for social and economic development. For the first time in history, capital is well on its way to being democratized. 'The Microfinance Revolution', in three volumes, is aimed at a diverse readership - economists, bankers, policymakers, donors, and social scientists; microfinance practitioners and specialists in local finance and rural and urban development; and members of the general public interested in development. This first volume, 'Sustainable Finance for the Poor', focuses on the shift from government- and donor-subsidized credit systems to self-sufficient microfinance institutions providing voluntary savings and credit services.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marguerite Robinson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0821345249\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780821345245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Bank Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.06h x 8.26w x 0.77d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2001 pg. 732","brand":"Marguerite Robinson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46311025869055,"sku":"9780821345245","price":31.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7752253a-093c-4a42-8e8e-6d18a4455a92.jpg?v=1730887895","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-microfinance-revolution-marguerite-robinson-9780821345245","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
