The textile weaving sector, deeply rooted in cultural heritage and traditional skills, serves as a significant economic driver for rural communities worldwide. Despite its contributions, weaving communities often face substantial challenges related to financial exclusion, unstable incomes, and limited market access. Institutional finance—encompassing loans, microfinance, and cooperative funding—offers a promising pathway to address these challenges and enhance socio-economic outcomes. This review paper explores the impact of institutional finance on weaving communities, focusing on income generation, economic stability, social development, and gender empowerment. By analyzing case studies, literature, and policy interventions, the paper highlights the transformative role of financial access in fostering sustainable livelihoods, empowering women, and improving social conditions within weaving communities. Findings indicate that while institutional finance can lead to significant socio-economic benefits, structural barriers and lack of tailored financial products still hinder its full potential. Policy recommendations are proposed to enhance the accessibility, suitability, and impact of financial support for weaving communities, ultimately aiming for greater resilience and prosperity in these sectors.
