贫困覆盖指数及其在小额信贷中的应用

福斯特，格里尔，和Thorbecke贫困指数修改为贫困外展措施，包括深度的推广和规模。在对小额供资机构的一项应用中，使用这种扶贫措施否定了在客户外联和机构可持续性之间有必要权衡的共同概念。银行和信用社的扶贫工作比专门针对穷人的小型、有补贴的非政府组织的扶贫工作更广泛。
The Foster, Greer, and Thorbecke poverty index is modified to a poverty outreach measure that incorporates both depth of outreach and scale. In an application to microfinance institutions, the use of this type of poverty outreach measure rejects the common notion that there is a necessary trade-off between client outreach and institutional sustainability. Banks and credit unions are found to have greater poverty outreach than smaller, subsidized non-governmental organizations that exclusively target the poor.
