• The Impact of Economic Resource Transfers to Women Versus Men (2012, background): “…mixed results: female borrowers ‘do not report any major improvement in their sense of empowerment after taking out a loan’, whereas wives of male members reported being more empowered in some areas (such as decisions about fertility and household finances) (Montgomery and Weiss, 2011: p.106).”
• Is financial inclusion good for bank stability? International evidence (2017, background): “With supportive regulatory environment, by exploiting scale economies banks can not only ease financial constraints to marginalised groups and small firms, but also reduce risk and become more profitable at the same time (see e.g., De la Torre et al., 2010; Montgomery and Weiss, 2011).”
