Analyzing the Farm‐Level Impact of Agricultural Credit: Discussion
讨论了三项分别针对巴西、肯尼亚和中国不同农业情境的信贷影响研究,回顾其关键金融特征,并就如何发展发展中国家正规金融体系提出一般性评论。
Credit impact studies have traditionally been plagued by a variety of methodological problems which make their results suspect. This discussion represents a reaction to three credit impact studies conducted on very different agricultural situations in Brazil, Kenya, and China. The key finance features of the studies are reviewed and some general comments are made concerning their implications for the debate about how to develop formal financial systems in developing countries.
