Microcredit relates to the provision of money in the form of little trading loans; to impoverished clients and this usually happen in destitute communities, and it is done with the sole purpose of ensuring economic growth through the development of entrepreneurial activities. As a result this is meant to reduce poverty by generating employment and also empowering women.
