Financial services companies in Ecuador
ISIC section K: Financial and insurance activities. 22,086 records from the SRI Catastro RUC, 11,285 active, data as of 2026-10-01.
There are 22,086 companies in ISIC section K (financial and insurance activities) in Ecuador, 11,285 active. The section is 3.9% of the 568,800 Ecuadorian records we hold from the SRI Catastro RUC, extracted 2026-10-01. The largest divisions are 64 (financial service activities, except insurance and pension funding, 14,740) and 66 (activities auxiliary to financial service and insurance activities, 6,797); one further division completes it. By province, Guayas leads with 10,140 (46% of the section), followed by Pichincha (9,037) and Azuay (575).
The operating institutions are a minority of this section: holding companies (ISIC 6420) and investment funds and trusts (6430) make up most of division 64 in Brazil, Chile and Peru. The LATAM Financial Services package removes those two classes; on this page the counts include them. Banks, credit co-operatives, payment institutions, brokers, insurers and asset managers are what payments infrastructure, KYC/AML, core-banking and insurtech vendors come here for. In Ecuador, 100% of these rows carry an ISIC class; the registry publishes no size field; the registry publishes no website or e-mail; 1,622 were registered in the 12 months before the extraction. There is no street address at the source; location is province, canton and parish.
