is there any improvement in poverty reduction by the help of micro finance? and what further can be contributed to improve the condition.
Generally, we use Number of active borrower, Percentage of female borrowers, Percentage of female borrowers below 20% poorest as the indicators of social outreach. However, to measure the real changes in the poverty, I guess you need to reach in the household data of borrowers.
Since poor individuals cannot start a business because of liquidity and credit constraints, micro finance is an important tool to reduce inequality.
You should see over time an increase in GDP per capita, and an increase in the average income.
yes, Elise it is making some sense, but still needs to measure how much micro finance is injected
