This research was carried out at the Banco Internacional Agencia Riobamba, through a situational diagnosis and comparative financial analysis in which the limited growth of financial intermediation in relation to local competition was established, within the same operating segment. The purpose of the study was to design financial strategies oriented to the growth and sustainability of the entity and therefore to the economic and social development of its clients through long-term financial relationships. In its development, various research techniques were applied, such as: a structured survey of clients in the Sierra Centro Zone, interviews with officials of the banking institution, as well as a diagnostic sheet applied to all employees of the Banco Internacional Riobamba offices. The population constitutes 1,357 clients corresponding to the different segments: executives, independent professionals, own business and companies. To determine the sample size, the proportional stratified sampling technique was used, obtaining a sample size of 300 surveys. The chi-square statistical test was applied in order to test the research hypothesis. It was concluded that the variables: independent "Financial Strategies" and the dependent "Social Economic Growth", are related, demonstrating their reliability by calculating Cronbach's Alpha to the correlation data. In this way it was verified that "financial strategies do contribute significantly to social economic growth", regarding the case study.

The most commonly used techniques for collecting semen, either for conservation purposes of genetic or reproductive material are: the artificial vagina and the electro-ejaculator. There has been controversy over the use of the electroejaculator by the scientific community due to the stress caused by this method and it would be considered to be an attempt to animal welfare. The objective of this study was to assess the levels of stress caused by the use of the electro ejaculator in rams treated with tranquilizers and without tranquilizers. Cortisol and testosterone levels were measured in sexually mature rams of the Corriedale breed between 2-3 years of age, with weights of 60-90kg. 8 collects were made to the rams, where 4 collections were administered Xylazine (2%) IV at a dose of 0.05mg / kg live weight 10 minutes before the collection, and the remaining 4 collections were not administered tranquilizer. For the determination of the hormonal cortisol levels and testosterone blood samples were taken 20 minutes after using the electro ejaculator, the hormonal levels were measured by the ELISA test. For the results analysis, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tables were taken as reference for hormonal analyzes with and without Xylazine, as well as the Mann-Whitney parametric tests were used as a basis. The statistical tests showed no significant difference in the use of the 2 treatments, resulting in similar levels of cortisol and testosterone in the treatments.
