520 _a‘Bank with a Soul’ is an inspiring story of Equitas Bank written by the celebrated author Dr. C K Gariyali IAS (Retd). Equitas was founded by Mr. P N Vasudevan in 2007 as a micro-finance company, solely to lend to women. In the last 14 years it has played a remarkable role in empowering women, helping them set up micro-enterprises, improving their incomes and enhancing the quality of their lives in eleven states of India. This book documents the evolution of Equitas into a magnanimous bank focusing on lending to un-bankable and neediest segment of marginalised, disabled and transgender individuals, in a most efficient and cost-effective manner winning worldwide acclaim and yet making profit. In the ruthless world of finance and banking, the presence of Equitas comes as a whiff of fresh air.
