Jimmy lives in a rented house with his mother on Buenos Aires Avenue in the Tacagua region of the city of La Paz. He works at events, such as weddings, birthdays, etc. He depends on an amplification system, but it is still not complete. The loan he requests is for buying more equipment (one speaker and a pair of microphones) and to repair those that he has, since this business is his only source of income and he needs to have his equipment in good condition.

This is the first time he has come to Impro to request a loan and his small-business ownership and financial analysis qualify him for one.

Jimmy vive en casa alquilada con su mama en la Av. Buenos Aires de la zona de Tacagua de la ciudad de La Paz; la actividad que el realiza es la atención de eventos, como ser matrimonios, cumpleaños, etc. Cuenta con un equipo de amplificación, pero aún no está completo. El crédito que solicita es para comprar mas equipos (1 parlante y un par de micrófonos) y reparar los que tiene, ya que esta actividad es su única fuente generadora de ingresos y necesita tener su equipo en buenas condiciones.

Esta es la primera vez que acude a Impro para solicitar un crédito y su actividad microempresaria y el análisis financiero lo califican para obtener uno.
