San Martin Group

The group "San Martín” is represented by the Señora Marcelina and consists of 16 members. Despite being a large group they are very united and dynamic, as they have demonstrated in their previous loan cycle. This group is involved in various commercial activities such as the sale of groceries, food, bread, sausages, empanadas (pastries with meat fillings), and cosmetics. The other members are involved in public transportation, housing construction, metal welding, and the furnishing of services. The competition within their areas is very strong, and they know that they must continue to move ahead in the economic activity in which they are engaged. This loan will be used to support the growth of their businesses with the purchase of merchandise, supplies and tools in order to improve their incomes which will permit them to give their families a better quality of life. As for credit experience, the members already have experience, given that they are pursuing their second loan cycle demonstrating responsibility, honesty and the desire to carry their businesses forward. They appreciate the economic support that the institution provides them because thanks to their trust, their families will enjoy a better quality of life and a better education.

In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a group of individuals bound by a group guarantee. Under this arrangement, each member of the group supports one another and is responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members if someone is delinquent or defaults. Learn more
