As loans are utilized in productive purposes, the likelihood of repayment increases so that moneylenders are able to charge lower interest rates.
Dupas et al.(2012) depicted that while simply expanding access to banking services will benefit a minority, broader success may be unobtainable unless the quality of services is simultaneously improved. There are also challenges on the demand side, however. More work needs to be done to understand what savings and credit products are best suited for the majority of rural households.

The SDGs work in the spirit of partnership and pragmatism to make the right choices now to improve life, in a sustainable way, for future generations. They provide clear guidelines and targets for all countries to adopt in accordance with their own priorities and the environmental challenges of the world at large. The SDGs are an inclusive agenda. They tackle the root causes of poverty and unite us together to make a positive change for both people and planet. “Supporting the 2030 Agenda is a top priority for UNDP,” said UNDP Administrator Helen Clark. “The SDGs provide us with a common plan and agenda to tackle some of the pressing challenges facing our world such as poverty, climate change and conflict. UNDP has the experience and expertise to drive progress and help support countries on the path to sustainable development.”(Source: http://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/sustainable-development-goals.html,1st March,2017)

Methodology of the study
Based on aforesaid literature review and also objectives of the study, we observed that there is no clear study on impact of social networking and community banking for transforming micro savings to micro investment. As such the study intends to develop the theoretical model .The study used secondary sources. Time period of the study is from March 2017 to June 2017.The study tried to consider objectives of the study through conceptually for formulating the model. Further, through reviewing different literatures this study tried to develop some theoretical framework which helped to develop a proposed model. This is just a qualitative analysis not quantitative analysis.
