Dataset Description:
This dataset collection originates from a randomized field experiment studying loan access and repayment outcomes. It includes borrower-level survey data from multiple rounds (baseline, midline, and endline), treatment assignments, loan performance records, and a loan officer survey. The variables cover firm revenues, borrowing history, employment, predicted repayment outcomes, and treatment status. The datasets enable research on how credit access, predictive tools, and human decision-making interact in small business lending.
