Vol. 6 No. 1 (2023): January-June

Volume 6, Number 1 (January–June 2023) brings together three studies that, from varied Latin‑American contexts and complementary methodological perspectives, examine early financial education, the links between macroeconomic variables and banking performance, and marketing strategies among rural micro‑producers. Wilmar Yesid Suárez Villaizón and Oscar Fernando Forero Londoño conduct a systematic literature review (2016‑2023) to show how administrative and financial education in secondary school can spur entrepreneurship; José Gutiérrez, Steve Lalvay, Yanice Ordoñez, and Patricio Mendieta use Pearson correlations to assess how economic factors influenced Ecuador’s banking system between 2018 and 2022; and Francisco de Asís Chuc Pech together with Julia Mercedes Canul Dzul analyze the distribution channels of backyard vegetable nano‑enterprises in Valladolid, Mexico, revealing opportunities to optimize their reach to end consumers.
