| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The information on financial diaries (i.e., income, expenditure, financial transaction, etc.) of the poor can provide important implications for policy actions to improve their living standards. As the first attempt, this research constructed a database of financial diaries of poor households in rural Cambodia and analyzed the patterns in those financial diaries. Furthermore, it also implemented comparative studies on financial diaries of the poor in Cambodia and the poor in other countries. Various implications and new insights into financial diaries of the poor were obtained from this research.
