This Note highlights the efforts of TSPI in the Philippines to develop productivity incentives to support the growth of their TSPI Palayan (Rice) Programme (TPP). TPP is now offered in 92 branches with outreach to 15,000 clients and a loan portfolio of PhP369 million (US$8.2 million) as of December 2013. In 2013, TSPI embarked on an expansion campaign targeted at increasing TPP productivity. Early results from the pilot test of the incentives, which resulted in increased outreach as well as portfolio quantity and quality, encouraged TSPI to extend the campaign to succeeding cropping seasons.
