Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The primary goal of financial inclusion is to remove obstacles to entering the finance system and to enable all people to use all services to improve their standard of living. Financial inclusion is seen as a life-changing instrument for underprivileged segments of the population (i.e., farmers, sole proprietors, and small village enterprises) in order to improve their standard of living. Financial inclusion has a significant impact on development because it allows underprivileged people to escape their poverty and allows diverse types and sizes of businesses to flourish.

This Special Issue focuses on the broad topic of the “Credit Risk Evaluation of Microfinance and Inclusive Finance”, and includes novel research on the use of techniques for modeling the credit risk, default prediction, and risk management of low-income groups.

Theoretical and empirical manuscripts on the application of novel techniques, such as artificial intelligence methods and fintech, in prediction, assessment, and optimization, with applications in credit evaluation, default measurement, and risk management, are welcome.

There are isolated streams of research in spiritual capital, spiritual leadership, and community leadership. We put together these three notions and indicate that taken together, a spiritual leader with a community leadership style can use his spiritual capital to boost both the social and financial performance of the organization and reduce risk. We document a case where a Hindu non-profit organization is more resilient compared to the other top Indian firms which are for-profit organisations. This challenges the popular belief that creating sustainable organizations with social impact requires a purely business logic. This case study reports the results of interviews with the top management of the organization explaining how religion is related to management inputs, the social business model, and financial performance outcomes. We add to the meager literature on Hinduism in social business leadership. We generate five propositions that expand the extant theoretical conceptualization of community leadership with a case example from a non-profit Hindu spiritual leadership domain. They serve as lessons that managers can reflect on while working with their community and building trust. Full article
