  1. The table includes data from 280 baseline VSLAs collected for the initial VSLA scoping exercise during sampling. Balance tests were conducted using t-tests, with Romano–Wolf corrections for multiple hypothesis testing later run (but not reported here). Column 2 reports the mean of control VSLAs and column 3 the mean of treatment VSLAs. Standard deviations are presented below in parentheses. Column 4 displays the difference between the two means, with standard errors displayed in parenthesis. Asterisks denote a statistically significant difference at the 1% ***, 5% **, or 10% * levels.
  2. 1Normalized for meeting frequency to a weekly share price.
