Non-Distortionary Task Reallocation
The intervention produced no statistically significant change in branch delinquency rates for current loans (total delinquency coeff = 0.011, p > 0.10) or future 2-month lagged delinquency (coeff = 0.006, p > 0.10), proving that frontloading loan placement by 18% in weeks 1–2 did not compromise credit screening standards.
