Abstract
⺠We examine technical efficiency of microfinance institutions in Latin America. ⺠We tested whether ownership type determines differences in technical efficiency. ⺠Non-governmental organizations and cooperatives have low technical efficiency. ⺠Inter- and intrafirm efficiencies of banks and non-bank institutions is high.
