Abstract
In this paper I identify the institutional and consumer barriers that have kept the urban poor out
of the banking network. I also analyze how informal mechanisms overcome these barriers to
create a sustainable and reliable network of financial services for the urban poor. I end by
discussing the need to rethink existing policies in order to make the formal financial services
more accessible and user friendly to the unbanked.
