Análisis de los programas de educación y cultura financiera en Ecuador.

Abstract

This exploratory and descriptive work proposes an analysis of the financial education programs offered by 24 financial institutions regulated by the Superintendency of Banks in Ecuador. The preliminary results indicate that the private banking corresponding to the "large banking sector by size of assets" obtains better levels of compliance with current regulations for this area. The study also determined that during the years 2016 and 2017 the number of trained in financial subjects was 365932 Ecuadorians. There is evidence of a boom in the use of electronic and non-traditional channels as means to develop financial education programs.
