ABSTRACT: This study attempts to find out what are the main determinants that affect the access to the formal credit sector of the households live in the Mekong River Delta with the data extracted from VHLSS 2006 and 2008 To fulfill the research objective, this study relies on the function of credit given to a household of M.H Quach, A W Mullineux, V Murinde (2004) With the helpings of Stata- and Stata -11 software, the logistic model and Ordinary Least Squared method are employed to explore the main factors that can be used to measure households' access to formal credit sector by the possibility of getting credit or not and the loan amount that households got from the formal credit sector The results of regression indicates that some variables such as poor household, real per capita expenditure, purpose of loan, house own, household head's education, farm size and interest rate have significant effects on households access to formal credit Therefore, in order to broaden the access to formal credit of the households in the Mekong River Delta as well as Vietnam, the banking system and ' the government should concentrate on solving problems that related to variables

economy in the world The average growth rate of GDP in the period 2000-2008 is about 7.4%/year, in 2009 is 5.32% and in 2010 is 6.78% With 75% of the population live in the rural area, agricultural production accounts for 22% of GDP, 30% of exports and 60% of employment The Mekong River Delta (MD) is one of the two main agricultural production regions in Vietnam In the early months of the year 2011, MD has export 4.1 million tons of rice, account for 90% of rice export of all the country, value export of rice is above billion USD However, the rate of the poor ofthis region in 2010 is very high, accounts 18.85% the poor households of the country, the income is about 975 USD/person/year, very low in compared to income 1,160 USD/person/year of the country It is found that "limited access to available resource including financial capital, is among the main underlining causes of poverty in Vietnam Microfinance is a key h part of such resources from which the poor can choose and develop better livelihood" (UNDP, 1996) Morduch and Haley (2002) also found that when the poor get access to credit, they can "improve their productivity and management skills; create jobs, smooth income flows and consumption costs; enlarge and diversify their businesses; and hence, their income can be increased and they have a better conditions on taking health care and education " Since in 1997, the Vietnamese government has launched the Hunger eradication and Poverty Reduction concentrated on improving the poor's access to credit, especially in the rural areas The major institutions that mission are Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (VBARD), Vietnam Bank for the Poor (VBP) and People's Credit Funds (PCFs) Through credit programs, they provide loans to poor households at subsidized interest rates However, they have failed to provide sustainable and large extent access to credit to the poor and be sustainable credit institutions According to Stijn Claessens (2005, page 2), the main reason of this from dataset of VHLSS 2006 Except the variable PURPOSEOFLOAN, the sign of this variable is minus in the Equation Y2-Loan amount, that can be explained by the higher amount of loans the banks provide for the households are used for house purchase/repair and others uses With two variables SEX and AGE, although their sign are different with these variables in the Equation Y2-Loan (VHLSS 2006, but they have no significant at 10%, so we not need to worry about them 4.5 Chapter conclusion a Chapter summary In this chapter, we have seen that access to formal credit can be measured by two ways, the probability and the extent that household access to formal credit The demand and supply factors are combined to measure the determinants of household's access to formal credit Two econometric methods, logistic and OLS have been utilized by using two datasets of VHLSS 2006 and VHLSS 2008 The main conclusions have been drawn out as follows: The models attempts to prove that household characteristics, loan characteristics h and endowments of household determine the probability of household's access to formal credit sector and loan amounts borrowed Empirical results show that the models we choose are acceptable because the Prob>F = 0.000 lzl 0.653 0.180 0.125 0.196 0.000 0.000 0.007 0.144 0.000 0.000 0.014 856 98.73 0.0000 0.1021 [95% Conf Interval] -.5540455
