SUMMARY:

The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse the perception of credit union managers regarding
the encouragement and financing of business initiatives in line with the principles of the
circular economy. Incorporating research and studies into the role of cooperatives in this
transition to the circular economy is essential for re-evaluating current production models and
their impacts, thus aligning organisational management with Environmental, Social, and
Governance (ESG) indicators. The current scenario emphasises the transition from the linear
economy to the circular economy as an imperative to guarantee the continuity of sustainable
production and consumption processes. This research is justified by establishing this relevant
connection for regional development with a focus on sustainability. The principle objectives of
this study are to understand the perceptions, challenges and actions of credit union managers in
identifying circular business opportunities, as well as the instruments that can facilitate support
for these initiatives. To achieve these objectives, this study will adopt a mixed research
approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods of an exploratory and descriptive
nature. Qualitative research aims to deepen understanding of the phenomenon in question,
while quantitative research aims to use representative samples and statistical analyses to
guarantee the robustness of inferences. The research methods used were bibliographical
research and a survey using online questionnaires for credit union managers. It is hoped that
the results of this project will contribute to the development of instruments that make it
possible to issue sustainable bonds and grant credit to companies with circular business
models, thus promoting a business environment that is more in line with the principles of
sustainability and the circular economy.
