Determination of the relative efficiency of microfinance institutions and the possibility of deepening credit access for traditionally limited sectors: Case of Bolivia
The research project is about measuring the efficiency of microfinance institutions in Bolivia through the application of non-parametric methods such as Data Envelopment Analysis and Stochastic Border Analysis. The problem that was identified is the differences in the levels of productivity in microfinance institutions in Bolivia, this generates different levels of fund raising and placement.
The objective of the research is to carry out a comparative analysis of efficiency with multiple inputs with respect to multiple products, to identify the most efficient units, to identify possible efficiency improvements in relatively inefficient units in order to redistribute operating expenses in such a way as to increase the level of placement (loans) held by microfinance institutions.
