|  What is the role of financial regulation in
                    the field of micro-finance? This paper identifies
                    two features of micro-finance which call for
                    unique treatment in policy considerations as
                    compared to policy thinking in the mainstream body
                    of financial law. These features are credit
                    recovery and the credit risk of the MFI, when
                    credit access is enabled through the structure of
                    the joint liability group. The paper goes on to
                    offer draft law which embeds a regulatory
                    treatment of micro-finance that flows from this
                    analysis. |
