Microfinance services significantly improve social empowerment among marginalized groups in Kerala, including SC, ST, and PwDs.
The study focused on 180 members of Self-Help Groups, using Structural Equation Modeling to analyze data and support findings.
Both micro savings and microcredit contribute positively to social empowerment, but are modest in effect, highlighting the complexity of social change.
Integrating financial services with non-financial support, like training programs, may enhance the impact of microfinance for inclusive development.
