Answer 1

Answer:

The formal sector still meets only about half of the total credit needs of the rural people.

. The remaining credit needs are met from informal sources.

. Most loans from informal lenders carry a very high interest rate and do little to increase the income of the borrowers.

. Thus, it is necessary that banks and cooperatives increase their lending particularly in the rural areas, so that the dependence on informal sources of credit reduces.

. While formal sector loans need to expand, it is also necessary that everyone receives these loans.

. At present, it is the rich households who receive formal credit whereas the poor have to depend on the informal source.
