Item Rentabilidad y concentración de mercado en los bancos privados de Ecuador(Univeridad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Contabilidad y Auditoria. Maestria. Maestria en Economía con mención en Banca y Finanzas, 2024-11) Escobar Camacho, Daniela del Pilar; DT - Manzano Martínez, María CristinaThe study aims to analyze financial risk and profitability in Credit Unions from segments 1 and 2 in Ecuador during the 2018–2023 period. Specifically, three specific objectives were set: to describe the behavior of credit and liquidity risk in the credit unions, to relate credit and liquidity risks in the institutions, and to explain profitability in terms of credit and liquidity risks of the organizations. An analysis was conducted on a total of eleven indicators related to financial risk (credit and liquidity risk) and the profitability of financial entities. The mean, median, standard deviation, maximum, and minimum values of the distribution were estimated for each year under study. Additionally, a correlation analysis between the indicators of the variables was carried out, for which it was necessary to test for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test. Finally, a system of simultaneous equations was specified, which involved estimating a Two Stage Least Squares (2SLS) regression model. The study concluded that most credit unions maintain delinquency rates below the average; however, there is an upward trend. On the other hand, there is a low, but not alarming, level of liquidity, which also seems to show a progressive trend. Credit and liquidity risks in the credit unions are related in different ways, the most prominent being the bidirectional interaction between the funding gap and profitability, as well as the inverse relationship between the credit portfolio ratio and the liquid assets ratio. Lastly, it was determined that profitability is explained both directly and indirectly by credit and liquidity risk.
