Cerise+SPTF and Grameen Foundation collaborated in research to test a survey instrument designed to measure the prevalence of financial abuse. A phone survey, conducted with approximately 200 women clients each from two financial institutions (FIs) in Benin, found low rates of financial abuse when women reported on their own experiences, but a high rate of financial abuse when these same women discussed financial abuse challenges in their communities. Based on the results of these surveys and input from the FIs, the authors suggest that future research should experiment with different survey methodologies, for example varying who asks the questions, how, and when, as those factors likely will influence the degree to which respondents feel comfortable sharing their experiences.
