About the Book

Financial services to the rural sector, especially the poor, in India have seen a series of experiments over the past, and the process of experimentation still continues. Institutions have emerged, policies have evolved, products and services have been designed to cope with the special needs of the sector, and, most importantly, technology has entered the space to alter the profile of financial services as never before. The field is so vast that there is room for all experiments and all innovations to co-exist, from the traditional moneylender to sophisticated technology-driven institutions. While much development has taken place, there is need and scope for more. This is a field where the last word is yet to be told. The Last Mile focuses on both the supply and demand sides of financial services delivery, the policy relating to financing of the rural and priority sectors, and the role of technology in facilitating the process.
