Using multiple linear regression, the results show that the interest rate, unemployment rate, and liquidity ratio positively influence the credit risk of Peruvian municipal savings banks; the study also shows that gross domestic product, efficiency of administrative expenses, solvency, and coverage of provisions exert a negative influence on credit risk. It is concluded that seven of the eight independent variables studied influence the credit risk of Peruvian municipal savings banks; only the inflation variable does not significantly influence credit risk.application/pdfengAttribution 3.0 Unportedinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCredit riskDelinquencyMunicipal savings banksMacroeconomic variablesRiesgo de créditoMorosidadCajas municipalesVariables macroeconómicasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.5267/j.dsl.2022.4.003https://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#5.02.04
