Microfinance has evolved as an important strategy for promoting community development and poverty alleviation goals through provision of financial services to low-income individuals, households and enterprises. The antecedents of modern microfinance can be traced back to the development of a wide range of institutions and movements that shared the aim of expanding financial services to poor clients. This study examines the remedial loan association (RLA), a type of charitable lending institution active in the United States from the 1890s through the early part of the 1900s.

520 $a Microfinance has evolved as an important strategy for promoting community development and poverty alleviation goals through provision of financial services to low-income individuals, households and enterprises. The antecedents of modern microfinance can be traced back to the development of a wide range of institutions and movements that shared the aim of expanding financial services to poor clients. This study examines the remedial loan association (RLA), a type of charitable lending institution active in the United States from the 1890s through the early part of the 1900s.
520 $a The purpose of this study is to describe the structure, performance and outcomes of RLAs in order to inform current microfinance practice. This purpose underlines the study's central question: What lessons does the experience of the Remedial Loan Associations offer the current practice of microfinance? The financial systems approach to microfinance development and processes of commercialization provide the analytic framework.
520 $a The study addresses these questions through an embedded case research design that identifies RLAs, located within the broader remedial loan movement as circumscribed by the membership and activities of the National Federation of Remedial Loan Associations, as the unit of analysis.
