    <title language="eng">Does Microfinance have an impact on borrower’s consumption patterns and women’s empowerment?</title>
    <abstract language="eng">This  paper  conducts  a  thorough  data  analysis  using  cross-sectional  data  from  a study carried out in Mexico including over 16,500 observations. In the study, clusters were selected in areas Compartamos Banco, a Microfinance institution (MFI), has not lent  in  before. The  clusters  were  randomly  assigned to either  the  treatment  or  the control  group.  The  analysis  suggests  that  Microfinance  has  a  significant  positive effect  on  school  and  food expenditure  but  no  apparent  effect  on  entrepreneurship. Using regression analysis, a significant positive effect on women’s empowerment and its positive effect on total consumption is found.</abstract>
