Poverty reduction plans have included
microcredits
as an important tool to improve the
social and economic development of a region. This project will try to explain what
impact indicators are most commonly used in the field of microcredits. Next, the
characteristics of those indicators will be analysed and also
their usefulness in every area of measurement. It will also be observed, through
several microcredit programmes impact studies
carried out in Rwanda, Brazil and Chile and Malaysia,
the indicators that have been used
in
these programmes, what
aspect each indicator
tries to measure and, finally, whether they have results with sufficient empirical evidence on its usefulness in the fight against
poverty. Finally, the cases which have been
analysed
will be compared
in order to draw enough
conclusions to propose a simple model that
enables
to standardize the way of
measuring the impact of micro
credit programmes through
the use of common
indicators. [-]
