Abstract

The micro-credit implies the granting of small loans in the hope of achieving the development of business units through financial institutions in the peripheral Peruvian population. In this context, the objective of the article is to determine the relationship between micro-credit and the development of micro-enterprises in rural areas. 278 women micro-entrepreneurs were interviewed, the data collection instrument was subjected to a validity by expert judgments with a coefficient of agreement of 97% and Cronbach’s internal alpha consistency of 0.90. The results obtained show that the super woman’s micro-credit has a direct and significant relationship with the development of micro-enterprises in rural areas according to the Spearman’s Correlation coefficient (rho 0.84, Sig. 0.000*).
