CDFI History

[lmb18 at cornell.edu (Leh]

I am looking for any references on two topics related to CDFIs:

1. The history of CDFIs, particularly those which include references to
more informal savings/capital distribution strategies in low-income
communities.

2. How CDFIs fit into to a larger community development movement both
practically and theoretically.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
