摘要

摘要本文采用混合方法研究了Baobab小额信贷公司(BMC)贷款对女性客户贫困和经济赋权的影响。使用411个BMC客户的样本,我们发现在某些情况下,与贷款频率较低的客户相比,贷款频率较高的客户相对较低的贫困和较高的经济赋权。这意味着贷款在不同贷款周期中的边际影响是u形的,而不是线性的,并且对客户有短期影响。此外,我们的定性结果表明,贷款有助于妇女减少贫困并获得经济赋权。

Microfinance loans, women’s economic empowerment, and poverty: a case study of Baobab Microfinance Company
ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of Baobab Microfinance Company (BMC) loans on poverty and economic empowerment of female clients using a mixed methods approach. Using a sample of 411 BMC clients, we find in some cases, relative lower poverty and higher economic empowerment for clients with a higher frequency of loans compared to those with a lower frequency of loans. An implication is that the marginal impact of loans across different loan cycles is U-shaped rather than linear and has a short-term impact on clients. Furthermore, our qualitative results suggest that loans help women lower poverty and become economically empowered.
