the annual average active interest rates applied by this institution and by the conv entional banking system, as published by the Supervisory Authority for Banks, Insurance and 
Pension Funds  (SBS). The Agrobanco average active interest rate corresponds to the rate for direct credits, while the active interest rate applied  by the convention al banking 
system corresponds to business operations related to production activities (credits for micro -enterprises) . The resulting amounts were converted into US dollars using the annual 
average nominal soles/US$ exchange rate published by the Central Re serve Bank of Peru  (BCRP). Data used: Agrobanco interest rate : 23.4%. Banking system interest rate : 
32.9%. Total loans: 246. 9 million soles . Exchange rate: 2. 75 soles = US$1.

the annual average active interest rates applied by this institution and  by the conventional banking system, as published by the Supervisory Authority for Banks, Insurance and 
Pension Funds  (SBS). The Agrobanco average active interest rate corresponds to the rate for direct credits, while the active interest rate applied  by the conventional banking 
system corresponds to business operations related to production activities (credits for micro -enterprises) . The resulting amounts were converted into US dollars using the annual 
average nominal soles/US$ exchange rate published by th e Central Reserve Bank of Peru  (BCRP). Data used: Agrobanco interest rate : 21.2%. Banking system interest rate : 
33.2%. Total loans: 366. 6 million soles . Exchange rate: 2. 64 soles = US$1.
