dc.description.abstractThis paper links the literatures on technical assistance and access to finance by examining a Mexican program that provided capacity-building grants to nonbank financial institutions (NBFIs) serving micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Using ten years of data from 81 credit unions and a staggered difference-in-differences approach, the analysis shows that the program improved NBFIs’ efficiency, enabling them to obtain more funding from private sources and leading to a 79 percent increase in lending. The findings suggest that technical assistance initiatives can strengthen NBFIs’ ability to expand credit access for underserved MSMEs.en
