ZARATE, Iliana Marcela Quintanar. Non-Bank Credit Institutions during the Porfiriato: Warehouses, Pawn Shops and Saving Associations. Rev. hist. am. argent. [online]. 2021, vol.56, n.1, pp.173-200.  Epub 06-Jul-2021. ISSN 2314-1549.  http://dx.doi.org/10.48162/rev.44.005.

The historiography of banking and credit institutions during the Porfiriato has focused primarily on the analysis of the banking system’s impact on the development of the Mexican economy, as well as on the country's industrialization across the last decades of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries; secondly, it has pointed out the origins of central banking through the study of the role that the National Bank of Mexico played as the government financial representative. That perspective has put aside the analysis of some of the non-banking credit institutions that operated at the same time, for example, warehouses, pawnshops, and saving associations, which, as a whole, also had an important role in funding commerce and trade. This article aims to reveal the process that helped create those non-banking institutions, in order to deepen our understanding of the different ways in which credit was developed during the Porfiriato.
