Abstract :

Self–Help Groups (SHGs) are the thrift and credit groups formed informal way whose members pool savings and relend within the group on rotational or needs basis. These groups have operated on co–operative principles and do collective actions. They succeeded in performing/providing banking services to their members door steps without any defaults. They are formed for addressing their common problems. They make regular savings habit and use the pooled savings for the benefit of their members through a structured process of essential financial intermediation like prioritization of needs, setting self–determined terms for repayment and keeping records. It builds financial discipline and credit history that then encourages banks to lend to them in certain multiples of their own savings and without any demand for collateral security. The present study is based on secondary data source and considered as the powerful instrument for women empowerment and eradication of poverty. The SBLP hasmade an adventure in the economy by transforming the formal banking services to rural poor and needy people particularly women group. The study is concluded with remarkable findings and suggestion found during the review of earlier studies.
