Abstract

El presente trabajo procura comprender el desempeño del crédito de corto plazo escriturado notarialmente en Buenos Aires durante la primera mitad del siglo XVII ante la escribanía pública y de Cabildo, único registro notarial de la comarca hasta comienzos del siglo siguiente. El análisis de los datos provistos por los protocolos notariales evidencia que las operaciones de este sistema crediticio escriturado notarialmente expresan el desarrollo de transacciones de crédito no condicionadas por la proximidad relacional. Y la distribución de tales instrumentos crediticios notariados no resultó en una concentración exclusiva entre los actores del grupo económicamente dominante de esta sociedad oligárquica. Este desempeño podrá encontrar su razón a partir de la interrelación entre las singularidades de la estructura institucional dispuesta localmente por la Corona, el funcionamiento efectivo de la institución notarial que participaba de aquella y las singularidades socioeconómicas del puerto, mostrando que la relación medular entre diseño institucional y desempeño económico no necesariamente se revela causal ni unidireccional. KEY Classification-JEL: N26. N00. F54.
