Evidence of impact / measured results2/3
An RCT across 239 village banks (4,591 clients, 76% follow-up) found no significant change in overall business revenue, profits or employment, alongside credible secondary gains (dropout down 4pp, perfect repayment up 3pp) — rigorous but largely null on the core productivity outcome.
Transferability / demonstrated replication2/3
Embedding 22 short training sessions into routine microfinance group meetings is a low-cost design usable by other village-banking MFIs, though no independent replication beyond FINCA Perú is documented here.
Scalability3/3
Because training rode on FINCA's existing weekly meeting infrastructure across 239 banks, the marginal delivery cost was only a 10% rise in operating costs — a structurally scalable design already proven at multi-hundred-bank scale.
Sustainability / continuity2/3
FINCA reported the added cost was offset by improved client retention and repayment revenue, suggesting a self-sustaining business case, though no data confirms continuation after the study period.
Innovation2/3
Delivering entrepreneurship content through existing loan-officer meetings rather than stand-alone classroom sessions is a moderately innovative integration of training into financial service delivery.
Inclusiveness / equity3/3
The programme targeted poor, predominantly female microfinance clients in semi-urban and rural Ica and Ayacucho, a population with limited pre-existing access to business training.
Multi-stakeholder collaboration2/3
Delivery paired FINCA Perú's credit agents and village-bank network with an academic evaluation team, though no separate government or private consulting partner was involved.
