This note assesses whether Bolsa-Familia
increases the probability of starting a venture in Brazil by
decomposing its potential effects into three channels:
wealth-constraint alleviation, insurance provision, and
reduction of children's labor supply (through the
effect of the conditionality). Results are that
entrepreneurship is indeed stimulated by Bolsa-Familia in
urban areas through the insurance and wealth-constraint
alleviation effects, notwithstanding that new ventures are
typically secondary sources of income. The conditionality
seems not to impact the level of entrepreneurship. Hence,
Bolsa-Familia might have a positive long-term effect as
well, instead of just offering short-term poverty relief. |
