Finance in Rural China (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This book offers insights into the scholarly debates on formal and informal finance in rural China and fills a gap in the existing literature.

The book provides an overview of the overall development of rural finance in China and explains the necessity of embarking on the pathway toward rural financial pluralization through the "Local Knowledge Paradigm". The authors also analyze formal and informal financial development and inclusive finance (including digital inclusive finance) in rural China in various dimensions.

This book aids the understanding of the structure of the rural financial system and the operations of rural financial service providers in China. It will be a useful reference for those researching and interested in rural economy and rural finance.

Rezensionen

This monograph focuses on describing and evaluating rural financial markets, institutions, structures, goals, and policies and recommends reforms to improve access to finance by farmers, small- and medium-sized enterprises, and families. The many tables enhance the discussion, providing more details than the text and allowing readers to focus on the main points and arguments. Understanding the myriad issues relating to rural finance should interest a wide range of readers: economists, policy makers and implementers, and business people concerned with China or other developing countries.
