摘要
Financial capability (FC) of the households involved in microfinance (MF) activities is better than those who are not. MF model, especially the traditional informal group structure, provides a platform for financial socialization and hence, it enables to build the FC of its members. Socioeconomic factors and behavioral economic variables significantly influence the level of FC of the households involved in MF activities. While designing FC enhancement programs, one should consider social capital structures and behavioral economic aspects.
