Secondary-source excerpt (embedded): Research on microcredit programs finds that small loans to women can increase business start-up rates and smooth household consumption, especially where women have limited collateral. However, impacts vary widely by local markets, interest rates, borrower training, and intra-household power. Some borrowers use loans for emergencies rather than investment, and repayment pressure can shift risk onto women without changing structural constraints like land access, childcare burdens, or discriminatory labor markets.
