Banking with Agents
This paper uses a randomized controlled \n trial to study the effects of access to agent banking. \n Individuals were encouraged to open an account and transact \n at a banking agent or a branch of a financial institution. \n Compared with individuals who were sent to the branch, \n individuals sent to an agent increased the number of \n transactions and incurred lower transaction costs with the \n agent. These transactions are, however, only hal…
The role of gender in agent banking
Banking in Africa
This chapter takes stock of the current state of banking systems across Sub-Saharan Africa and discusses recent developments, including innovations that might help Africa leapfrog more traditional banking models. Using an array of different data, the chapter documents that African banking systems are shallow but stable. African banks are well capitalized and over-liquid, but lend less to the private sector than banks in non-African developing cou…
Agent banking in a highly under-developed financial sector
Social Capital, Finance, and Consumption
Using a new, nationally representative sample of Chinese households, this paper studies how social capital affects access to credit and its implications for consumption levels. The paper focuses on two specific forms of social capital: private social networks and membership in the Communist Party. Although party affiliation is linked to higher consumption in rural areas, those benefits are direct and thus do not work through credit markets. The m…

Does Regulatory Supervision Curtail Microfinance Profitability and Outreach
Pursuing efficiency while maintaining outreach
Bank Privatization in Sub-Saharan Africa
Microfinance Meets the Market
In this paper, we examine the economic logic behind microfinance institutions and consider the movement from socially oriented nonprofit microfinance institutions to for- profit microfinance. Drawing on a large dataset that includes most of the world's leading microfinance institutions, we explore eight questions about the microfinance "industry": Who are the lenders? How widespread is profitability? Are loans in fact repaid at the high rates adv…
Financial performance and Outreach
Microfinance promises to reduce poverty by employing profit-making banking practices in low-income communities. Many microfinance institutions have secured high loan repayment rates but, so far, relatively few earn profits. We examine why this promise remains unmet. We explore patterns of profitability, loan repayment, and cost reduction with unusually high-quality data on 124 institutions in 49 countries. The evidence shows the possibility of ea…

International Capital Markets and American Economic Growth
Un, deux, trois, quatre marchés ? L'intégration du marché du capital, États-Unis et Grande-Bretagne (1865-1913)
L'histoire est celle de deux villes et de deux nations. En 1870, le grand Londres était une agglomération de plus de trois millions d'habitants, la capitale de ce qui était sans doute le pays le plus riche et incontestablement l'empire le plus grand du monde. Ce qui est plus important pour cette histoire, c'est qu'elle était aussi l'emplacement de la ' City ', le centre financier incontesté du monde. Au même moment, New York était une ville de mo…
