The use of money spans a large part of our 
everyday life. In transactions, goods are 
being bought and sold with use of money. 
Money acts as an intermediate in the 
exchange process, it is also called a medium 
of exchange. Money has become the 
currency of exchange. 
Before introduction of money, people 
would barter system to obtain the goods and 
services they want.
If you have wheat but need fruits, you must find 
someone who not only has fruits but also the 
desire for wheat. What if you find someone who 
has the need for wheat but no fruits and can only 
offer you flowers and banana? 
To get your wheat, he or she must find someone 
who has fruits and wants flowers.
 It is a system in which goods are 
exchanged for other goods.
•The other form in which people hold money is as deposits with 
banks. At a point of time, people need only some currency for 
their day-to-day needs. Banks accept the deposits and also pay 
an interest rate on the deposits. Since the deposits in the 
bank accounts can be withdrawn on demand, these deposits are 
called demand deposits. 
•A cheque is a paper instructing the bank to pay a specific 
amount from the person’s account to person in whose name 
cheque has made. The modern form of money- currency and 
deposits- are closely linked to the working of the modern 
banking system.

Reserve Bank of India
•Poor people do not have anything to offer as 
collateral security 
•Banks are not available in many rural areas 
•Banks do not consider the poor people as credit 
worthy. 
•Poor and ignorant people find it difficult to produce 
the needed documents.
 Banks are not present everywhere in rural India. Even 
they are, getting a loan from bank is much more 
difficult than taking a loan from the informal 
sources. 
 In recent years, people have tried out some new ways 
of providing loans to the poor. SHG is one of them. A 
typical SHG has 15-20 members, usually belonging to 
one neighborhood, who meet and save regularly.
