Table 6.1 shows that the average annual growth in per capita expenditure was higher for nonparticipants (4.5 percent) than for participants (3.7 percent) over the 20-year period between the first and third survey rounds (1991/92–2010/11).

Table 6.1 Household Expenditure Distribution and Poverty Measures by Microcredit Participation Status in the Three Survey Periods

Sources: World Bank/BIDS survey 1991/92 and 1998/99; World Bank/InM survey 2010/11.

Note: Monetary figures are consumer price index–adjusted Tk. with 1991/92 = 100. The analysis is restricted to 1991/92 microcredit-eligible households (i.e., those who participated in microcredit programs in 1991/92 and those who were eligible to but did not), which constituted 64, 62, and 61 percent of the surveyed households in 1991/92, 1998/99, and 2010/11, respectively. Figures in parentheses are t-statistics of the differences between participants and nonparticipants.
