Ten days after the change of government, the chairman of the board of BanEcuador, Mauricio Salem, submitted his resignation to president Guillermo Lasso, giving a brief inventory of his management and offering to remain in office until he is legally replaced, “since there is a procedure to that effect, and therefore to be in opportunities to conduct an orderly and transparent transition with whomever the future president appoints.”

This is indicated in his voluntary resignation from November 13, in which he explains to the president that he is doing so, “because you honored me with this highest honor and I want to express my will before you”.

1×30 loans created by this Government exceed 300 million dollars

Salem believes that a historical turning point was marked in the goal of democratizing credit towards the base of the country’s production pyramid during this administration:

BanEcuador resumed 1×30 loans after a two-month break and without guarantee that these and new services will continue in the next government

In his letter of resignation, Salem also assures that they are leaving “a high bar in terms of management carried out by this new BanEcuador.”
