Abstract: We use an Ecuadorian sample to investigate if there are differences in motivations for business start‐up between persons with and without disabilities. Generally, we do not document significant differences. The reason might be that we use a sample selected among customers of the microfinance bank Banco D‐MIRO. Without targeted incentives, disabled microfinance customers must resemble non‐disabled customers. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
