Resumen
Cuando se trata de tomar decisiones financieras informadas, la educación
financiera es crucial. De acuerdo a la SBS (2019) en la Encuesta Nacional de
Capacidades Financieras, sólo el 37% de encuestados mostró un manejo
adecuado de conocimientos financieros. Ello explica que se tomen decisiones
financieras bajo el consejo de personas no especializadas o se recurra a servicios
financieros informales. Teniendo en cuenta la asimetría de la información
financiera y la compleja estructura del sistema financiero, estos comportamientos
pueden tener un efecto contraproducente en poblaciones que se encuentran en
situación de vulnerabilidad económica, como es el caso de los microempresarios.
Si bien la educación financiera ayuda a garantizar la correcta toma de decisiones
financieras, también permite proteger a los consumidores financieros y minimiza
los riesgos ante fraudes.
Por ese motivo, el objetivo de la presente tesis fue conocer el aporte de la
educación financiera en el desarrollo de las capacidades financieras de los
microempresarios del mercado “Virgen del Carmen” del Rímac en el marco de la
Estrategia Nacional de Inclusión Financiera, periodo 2018-2020. Para este fin, se
analizó el desarrollo de capacidades financieras de los Microempresarios tras
haber participado en el programa de educación financiera. Asimismo, se recogió
sus percepciones respecto a los cambios en su calidad de vida. Finalmente, se
plantearon los aspectos de mejora para la gestión de la Estrategia Nacional de
Inclusión Financiera a fin de fortalecer su implementación.
Los resultados de esta investigación muestran que, aunque la educación
financiera tiene ventajas, existen aspectos de mejora que se deben reforzar, tal es
el caso de la necesidad de ampliar la capacitación en temas de ahorros, seguros
y mecanismos de defensa del consumidor financiero. Por consiguiente, la
información que se produzca servirá para que las instituciones, tanto públicas
como privadas, que desempeñan un papel en la educación financiera,
implementen plataformas de educación financiera virtual, así como el
establecimiento de jornadas de asesoría financiera.
When population have to make informed financial decisions, financial education is crucial. According to the SBS (2019) in the National Survey of Financial Capabilities, only 37% of respondents showed adequate management of financial knowledge. This explains why financial decisions are made under the advice of non-specialists or resort to informal financial services. Considering the asymmetry of financial information and the complex structure of the financial system, these behaviors can have a counterproductive effect on economically vulnerable populations, such as micro-entrepreneurs. While financial education helps to ensure correct financial decision-making, it also helps to protect financial consumers and minimize the risk of fraud. For this reason, the objective of this thesis was to learn about the contribution of financial education in the development of financial capabilities of microentrepreneurs in the "Virgen del Carmen" market of Rimac in the framework of the National Strategy for Financial Inclusion, period 2018-2020. For this purpose, the development of financial capabilities of Microentrepreneurs after having participated in the financial education program was analyzed. Likewise, their perceptions regarding changes in their quality of life were collected. Finally, aspects of improvement for the management of the National Financial Inclusion Strategy were proposed in order to strengthen its implementation. The results of this research show that, although financial education has advantages, there are aspects of improvement that should be reinforced, such is the case of training on savings and insurance issues. Therefore, the information produced will be useful for institutions, both public and private, that play a role in financial education, to implement virtual financial education platforms, as well as the establishment of financial counseling days.
