| Research Abstract |
The Self-Reliance Group (SRG) approach in rural Myanmar is an emerging case that promotes outreach to the underprivileged in an innovative and flexible manner. Using the detailed data, however, this study indicated that under the loan terms based on group decisions, access to members in need of lump sum of money could be limited even under emergency cases of critical illness.
