Extending Financial Services to the Unbanked In this course we will explore different interventions and tools used for poverty alleviation, financial inclusion, and the extension of financial services to the unbanked poor in emerging markets. Using examples drawn from the field, we will look at the use of microfinance, microinsurance, and digital financial services to achieve these goals in developing countries. In addition to articles, the practitioner will draw on special guest speakers to represent case studies and themes from the course outline.  Elizabeth Toder began her international development adventure as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Thailand 30 years ago and most recently served as the US Treasury Department’s Resident Advisor in Madagascar, advising the Ministry of Finance and Central Bank on financial inclusion./

Taking this class with Professor Toder was a really good experience. I learned a lot about Microfinance. I learned why financial institutions are essential in developing countries. If you are interested in economics, you should take this class.
