Abstract

In recent years, economists and policymakers have been interested in the burden of student debt across socioeconomic groups. In this Economic Commentary, we use the two most recent waves of the Survey of Consumer Finances, collected in 2019 and 2022, to study changes in the joint distribution of student debt and two measures of 'ability-to-pay,' income and net worth. We find that between 2019 and 2022, both the fraction of families with student debt and real student debt per family were essentially unchanged, and aggregate student debt fell as a fraction of aggregate income and net worth. However, over the same period, the distribution of student debt shifted toward higher-income and wealthier families, with a rise in the average student debt in the highest quintile of both income and net worth. Further, this shift was not driven by changes in the distribution of debtors, but, instead, in the amount of debt per family., Student debt is the third-largest category of consumer debt in the United States and currently stands at approximately $1.6 trillion. (1) In recent years, the increasing magnitude of student debt [...]

11. EXTENT AND DETERMINANTS OF DECISION-MAKING POWER OF WIVES OF EXPATRIATE WORKERS IN THE BANGLADESHI FAMILY

Abstract

Millions of Bangladeshis work as expatriate workers across the globe, but most of the married ones leave their families in their native homes. They live independently or with the parents of their husbands or with their own parents. The study has attempted to understand how the absence of husbands affects their decision-making power in the family. Data were collected using a sample survey of 400 wives of expatriate workers. A composite variable was constructed using 10 statements, which portrayed simple to complex family matters, for measuring the extent of the decision-making of wives during their husbands' absence and using it as the dependent variable to identify the factors associated with the decision-making power. Descriptive statistics were used for describing the profile of the wives of expatriate workers and determining wives' level of decision-making power, while inferential statistics were used for identifying the factors associated with decision-making power. Wives were young and literate. The families were poor, mostly landless and joint, and in debt for sending husbands overseas. About 56% of the wives receive remittance and 63% of them control it. Although two-thirds of the wives controlled the remittance, the level of decision-making of wives remained at a moderate level. The regression analysis had shown that a wife had to be a remittance recipient or a remittance controller or an aged woman or any combination of the three to become a decision-maker, in addition to the absence of the husband. The decision-making being a complex interplay of multiple actors in a private home, a direct macro-level policy to empower wives to obtain more decision-making power is difficult to execute and may not be putative in society. Indirect micro-level policies like posting women at remittance transacting desks in banks and financial institutions may encourage more husbands to send remittances to their wives to have their money in safe custody. Since regression analysis has found receiving and controlling remittance have a significant relationship with decision-making power, the more wives receive the remittance, the more likely wives will control it, and thus more wives will be empowered to make decisions.

The study has attempted to understand how the absence of husbands affects their decision-making power in the family. Data were collected using a sample survey of 400 wives of expatriate workers. A composite variable of 10 statements from simple to complex family matters was included in the interview schedule to measure the extent of decision-making power of wives during their husbands' absence and using it as the dependent variable to identify the factors associated with decision-making power. Descriptive statistics were used for describing the profile of the wives of expatriate workers and determining wives' level of decision-making power, while inferential statistics were used for identifying the factors associated with the decision-making power. Wives are young, literate, poor, majority landless and joint family member, and in debt for husbands' expatriation. About 56% of the wives receive remittance and 63% of them control it. Although two-thirds of the wives control the remittance, the level of decision-making of wives remains at a moderate level. The regression analysis has shown that, a wife has to be a remittance recipient or a remittance controller or an aged woman or any combination of the three to become a decision maker, in addition to the absence of the husband. The decision-making in a family being a complex interplay of multiple actors in a private home, a direct macro level policy is difficult to execute and may not be accepted in society. Indirect micro level policy like posting women in remittance transacting desks in banks and financial institutions, may encourage more husbands to send remittance to their wives to have their money in safe custody.
