Abstract

The objective of this research was to analyze the regulatory deficiencies in the valuation of collateral used as loan guarantees in the Ecuadorian banking system. A mixed methodology was used, with a descriptive and explanatory approach. Data was collected through surveys and interviews with citizens who had accessed loans secured by collateral. The results reveal a lack of transparency in asset appraisal, the absence of specific regulations, and a perception of arbitrariness in the valuation processes. Regulatory measures, the creation of registries of appraisers, and financial literacy campaigns are proposed to strengthen debtors' rights and ensure fairer and more transparent practices in the financial system. In conclusion, a comprehensive strategy to guarantee equitable and transparent valuation of collateral as bank guarantees in Ecuador is not observed.
