Implications  Women are excluded as customers and a significant portion of the family income is disregarded.  There is increased credit risk in relying on the income from one large harvest for repayment and not taking into account the steady cash flow of women’s activities. Solutions  Modify existing credit methodologies to measure the entire family income growth potential.  Allow multiple loans per household.  Train staff to see women as viable and valuable clients.  Raise awareness of women’s contributions.  Create multiple loan products for different needs (livestock, machinery, artisan).
