Abstract

The Human Development Bonus is a monetary transfer of USD 50.00 directed to the poorest families in the country, conditioned to meet the responsibilities of the beneficiaries. It emerged as a mechanism to face the economic crisis of Ecuador in the year 1998, presenting several modifications over the years. The lack of focus and the inappropriate use of the transfer that provoke inefficiency to the program were the fundamental incentives to develop the present investigation. The results show that the BDH has a positive impact on the beneficiaries, because it improves the level of education, health, food and basic services, which favors the development of human capital and social welfare. The use and destination of the BDH is food with 64%, education in 12%, basic services in 8.8% and health in 8.5%, administered consumption to cover the basic needs that provide a better quality of life.
