Evidence snapshot for Santo Domingo
Banco ADOPEM's simplified financial training for Santo Domingo microentrepreneurs shows that a randomized controlled trial of 1,193 microentrepreneurs found rule-of-thumb accounting training significantly outperformed standard accounting courses. The simplified training increased record-keeping by 11 percentage points, raised business–personal account separation by 11 points, and boosted reported bad-week sales by 18.5%, with the largest gains among those with weakest baseline financial practices. Standard accounting training produced almost no significant change in business practices or revenue. The evidence is limited to microfinance clients and does not address broader economic or social conditions in Santo Domingo.
