摘要
Micro-entrepreneurial activities in small-scale trading in an urban context generate incomes and reduce poverty of marginal city dwellers. They are viable but need to adapt to the socio-economic system where they operate. The types of micro-entrepreneurial activities vary between rural and urban contexts. The delivery cost of microfinance services in urban areas is cheaper than in rural areas.
