    Extensive global evidence suggests that conditional cash transfers (CCTs) encourage long-term investment in human capital by poor households. However, CCTs also have the potential to distort incentives for investment among children. If only some children in the household are monitored/subsidized for compliance with conditionalities, returns to household investment in those children increase relative to siblings who are unmonitored/unsubsidized. This paper demonstrates that puzzling nutrition effects of the Philippine CCT are driven by effects on children unmonitored for educational compliance, due to a cap of monitoring at most three children per household. Regression discontinuity design interacted with a secondary instrument for monitoring finds that while monitored children have improved human capital investment, such investment declines for unmonitored children relative to nonbeneficiaries. Patterns are consistent for parental expectations, health, anthropometric, and educational outcomes, and are stronger for boys, in accordance with theoretical expectations. Equalized incentives among children can enhance intended CCT effects.

    In this paper we evaluate how well-targeted and effective in reducing poverty the Bolsa Família Program (PBF) was in Brazil between 2004 and 2019. In order to do this, we use data from the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) from 2004 to 2015, from the Continuous National Household Sample Survey (PNAD Continuous) from 2012 to 2019, and from the Atlas of Social Protection Indicators of Resilience and Equity (Aspire). We calculate several different targeting and poverty indicators over the entire period to obtain an overview of how successful the program was in both dimensions. Additionally, we provide an international comparison between PBF and conditional cash transfer programs in other countries. Our results indicate that PBF was well targeted, with low levels of inclusion errors (people who should not have received the benefit, but did) and moderate levels for exclusion errors (people who should have received the benefit, but did not). Moreover, from an international perspective, PBF was well targeted, ranking among the best programs in our sample, regardless of the poverty line or targeting metric used. With respect to the effect on poverty reduction, the results suggest an important role for PBF, especially when lower poverty lines are used. However, for these lines, the effect of PBF on poverty declined over time. In particular, there was no increase in the role of PBF on poverty reduction between 2012 and 2019. We conclude that any program that replaces PBF should prioritize the reduction of exclusion errors and the maintenance of the real value of the benefit.

    Worldwide, 1.6 million girls are "missing" at birth every year. One policy tool to improve the sex ratio is a conditional cash transfer that pays parents to invest in daughters, but existing evidence on their effectiveness is sparse. Using a difference-in-differences framework, we evaluate the Dhanlakshmi scheme, an Indian CCT program that strongly encouraged girl births without restricting fertility. Dhanlakshmi improved the sex ratio at birth, with only a small fertility increase. The girl-birth effect was concentrated among the first two parities and partially persisted after the program was discontinued. Post-birth outcomes like immunization and education also improved.

    We provide new evidence of the heterogeneous impact of the Philippines' conditional cash transfer (CCT) program designed to improve human capital investments among children from poor households. Using a regression discontinuity design, our moderation analysis shows that the distance to and quality of education and health facilities matter in child schooling and vaccination behaviors. Conditional cash transfers provide some but incomplete protective effects against the adverse influence of suboptimal facility conditions on these child outcomes. We also document no crowding out effects from some elective affirmative actions directed towards CCT beneficiaries.
