Abstract

Understanding the potential impact of using mobile money for cash transfers to the poor requires understanding how beneficiaries make use of their money, and how their community ‘behaves’ as a result. For instance, do they consume all the transfers, or would they retain some as savings? How quickly do they spend their money, and for what? Are there gender issues with respect to decision-making regarding its use?

This is part 3 in a 3-part blog series.
