The procedure to access the 1% credits is free and the application, together with the supporting documents, can only be delivered in person at Banecuador.
On December 10, 2021, through Executive Decree 284, the president, William Lasso, established the concession credits at 1% interest and up to 30 years term as “national priority”.
The first official deliveries of this type of financing began on January 5, 2022. Lasso assured that the application process is as unbureaucratic as possible and it focuses, in addition to small agricultural producers, entrepreneurs (especially women heads of household), informal workers and even people with unpaid debts due to the crisis.
Below we detail the main keys to access the credits between $500 and $5,000
1.- To make the request you do not need to be a client Banecuador, that is, it is not a requirement to have previous accounts or credits in that institution.
2.- The three identification documents that are requested are: identity card, voting certificate and a basic service form (up to 3 months old).
3.-You must fill out a request card and attach the documents that support the income you receive from your economic activity. These can be account statements, invoices, bills of sale, RISE, RUC, commercial references, among others.
