Abstract

In this paper will be analyzed the legal framework of Credit Unions, presenting its origin on the half of the nineteenth century in the territory which is called now Germany and the reception and evolution of the institution in Spain to reach the current troubled situation in which, after the financial crisis experienced in recent years, is intensely debated what the future of the sector should be with an announced reform of its legal system.
