CORDOVA LEON, Fernando; DUQUE ESPINOZA, Gabriela  e  SIGUENCIA MUNOZ, Adrián. Business concentration and inclusion strategies. Prob. Des [online]. 2021, vol.52, n.205, pp.173-200.  Epub 23-Ago-2021. ISSN 0301-7036.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2021.205.69708.

Inclusive and sustainable economic growth is a fundamental objective of development, and one which seeks to address inequality. Working from this premise, this article sets out to determine the characteristics of the companies with the highest wealth concentration in Ecuador, as well as to identify the variables that affect business inclusion, and to propose alternatives for inclusive growth with the participation of MSMEs. This article employs the Gini coefficient to determine the level of economic concentration and to study companies’ financial management models. The findings revealed high inequality indexes: profitability over assets, indebtedness, age, and financial leverage as predictors of the probability of belonging to the most successful category. There is therefore a clear need to implement public policies aimed at promoting productivity and socially responsible behavior.

Palavras-chave : Ecuador; economic growth; firms; financial management; wealth concentration.
