本文是一篇管理学博士论文格式,在这项研究中,我们试图找出所有与跨国影响有关的问题。我们研究跨国并不是为了在较发达国家和发展中国家之间进行比较,而是为了清楚地了解该计划在不同地区的影响方式。通过这种方式,我们可以提出一些政策建议,这些建议可以通过采用金融包容性战略来帮助降低贫困水平,限制农村地区的信贷限制,赋予妇女权力使其成为主流人口并改善农民的状况,并找到最适合特定的国家条件。可建议今后进行一项研究,以确定这两个国家的主要社会、文化和经济差异,这些差异可能会影响具体的金融包容性对生计发展和减贫的影响。

1.1. Background
It is always a massive challenge for many countries to meet up the identical goals ofeconomic expansion and reduce rural poverty at the same time period and took the peripheralpopulation to the mainstream. In several countries of the world, microfinance has been usedas an instrument to upsurge financial penetration in rural areas of that country and basicallythe actual low-income groups are the main target group of this program. The overall idea of“what is microfinance really mean” is expressed in the following statement: “ The provisionof micro-financial services to the poor known collectively as micro-credit financing, micro-savings, micro-insurance, and money transfers and have been accredited with aiding micro-entrepreneurs to build businesses and increase their income as well as improving the generaleconomic wellbeing of the poor”(van Rooyen, Stewart, & de Wet, 2012).

However, microfinance is a service thatprovides both financial and non-financial services to that type of poor population who haveless access to formal financial institutions (M. Rahman & Luo, 2012). Microcredit financingis one of the services provided by Micro Finance Institutions (MFIs). The term “microcredit”really express as any loan amount which is smaller than the loan amount disbursed by atraditional financial institution (Du, 2008). According to Convergences microfinancebarometer Statistics, The microfinance Institutions (MFIs) serving microcredit approximately139 million low-income customers worldwide in 2018, for a loan portfolio of $114 billion.Worldwide microcredit financing grew very fast. Here, Figure 1.1 shows the most recent dataof the total number of borrowers and the number of borrowers amidst the poorest at the timeof writing this dissertation.

Grameen bankin Bangladesh, the pioneer of microfinance, has achieved significant success by the end of 2008 and it had lent US$7.6 billion microcredit loan to the poor households.
